Remaining 2016 Free Agents

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Lance Stephenson is going to be waived by the Pelicans. Apparently he needs surgery to fix a groin injury and will be out a couple weeks. I know the cavs most likely aren't going to entertain the idea of Lance but he is the exact player this team needs right now. He is young and can play the point. Is good on defense when motivated and can guard 1-3. Sad he is such a headache, I guess the cavs wouldn't have a shot at getting him if he wasn't though.
 
The guy can barely jump but he is big and he will give us the false confidence that we don't need a true rim protector.
I don't care brng him over.

So why hasn't this happened yet.

He played for the Canton Charge in 2015. Figure the cavs have already evaluated him enough that he isn't on their radar for prospects.

Cavs made gestures to certain teams that don't have a D-League team such as the Bucks and the Hawks.
He played with the Canton while he was still signed as a Hawk, so has Damien Inglis that is now a lone wanderer in the world of the unwanted.
Tavares has improved since his time with the Charge and I would bring him for sure.
 
Omg, they should totally go for him. This is what we need man.

Jordan Farmar is available, correct? Why did the Kings re-sign him then get rid of him two games later?

Because Collison was suspended and they were able to carry 16 players on the roster until the suspension ended.
 
His length is incredible, but as far as movement goes he's kind of a stiff. In comparison, Mozgov is like a gazelle, literally. I think Tavares would really struggle defending the PnR.

He's reasonably athletic surprisingly, but yeah, the lateral stuff is an issue.

Toronto grabbed him on waivers. Now have a bunch of young bigs - Poetl, Noguiera, now Tavares behind Valanciunas
 
What's old man Andre Miller up to? He was on the Kings last year. We could bring him back and run his career full circle. He's still a great lob thrower.
 
With Conley down and Memphis applying for a hardship exemption, one of the prime remaining point guards will be off the board. Prime is a relative term in this context. They're looking at Toney Douglas, Kendall Marshall and Will Bynum. I've always been fond of Bynum. Norris Cole, in China, is apparently now injured. What a Surprise. And Chalmers still isn't ready. (He also played for the Griz last yr, seeming to me, increasing their interest and willingness to keep tabs on him.)

W/R/T Deron Williams, Mark Cuban has said they're not tanking. Of course, that doesn't mean the time won't come.... the team is playing Kyrie off the ball an awful lot - pretty much whenever LeBron is in there the last couple games, making me feel the need for a real point guard who can (sorta) move Kyrie off the ball is even greater.

I don't doubt that they're working on something. Hopefully a trade, because the FA remainders are no great shakes and the need is looking important (LBJ is just so much better off the ball or in the post as opposed to above the key/break)
