Camby & Ricky are both in their final contracts and come off the books. As far as K. Rush, what the census seems to be is that he’s a great 3 point threat & that’s it. While we already have Novak for that, I do think Kareem is a better option than R. Davis but only, and seriously only if we buy out Davis. Butler can play the 2 if need to at times. This is also another reason why we entertained the idea of Sessions because he played the 2 at Milwaukee when Redd went out but that point is mute now. Let’s keep what we have now, we’re not a top team in the west, 8th spot if everything clicks for us and doesn’t for some of those few teams close to us at best. Then we can play around with money in the offseason & for for someone like Joe Johnson who can play the 2 & 3.

Either way he comes off the books next year, which is very important in the FA race. Get Serious needs to start learning about contract management.

Camby is also an enticing expiring contract

My bad, I was using figures from a GM game im playing. Hes worth $9.5m there and I thought that was accurate.

Doesnt he have incentives that could push that up?

Still think its worth keeping Camby, both from a financial perspective and from a player perspective.

i dont know if Ricky Davis can really play any more horrible than he did last year…
so i mean the only direction he can go is up
haha

i say we try with our current set of guys but we need an extra ball handler thats not MARDY COLLINS…hes too slow and not a quick enough pg
if we start off bad then start making moves quickly to salvage the season

Just to clear some things up, Camby makes 7.65 million this year. Carry on.

And yes, Kareem should get a spot in the team over Ricky… though I do think it’s unfair that many people characterize him as a thug and a lazy bum. He’s just lost his basketball mojo, no need to villainize him.

Oh I dunnoo… something along the lines of 10 pts, 11+ rebs, 51% FG, and over 2 blocks a game?

And let’s not forget he sets a good example to the youngsters, especially Deandre.. so I would say that $9.5 mil contract is worth it.

OK, I’m high.

Tell me, what did we really get from Camby? We did a favor to Denver for no apparent reason. Dunleavy just panicked after Brand incident. Denver sensed this vulnerable situation, and dumped his salary on us.

To be better and respectable in this league we should stop becoming only ROOKIE GROOMERS and RETIREE EASY CHAIRS.
