    Yes we do. The Blaizers traded Randolp for Francis, Frye+young package, I hear the Blaizers maybe will buy his contract out, then we can sign him for cheap.

    Actually in the videos I've seen, he plays faster than Nash and I remember reading that Tony Parker said he couldn't keep up with Papa.

    I'd take Papa. He's probably the best player out of the ones listed.

    Second would be Ridnour since he's also a shooting PG, something that works well in a triangle offense.

    Probably not. But somewhere along the lines of TJ Ford or Deron Williams: almost-star-caliber point guards who make significant contributions to the team.

    With Kobe, we only need 2nd and 3rd option guys, JO and Papa can be those options.
    Oh, and Papa can make the open shot.

    cba are you kiddding me! Papakoulas is way faster than Nash and yes like Voulnet said TP said he's too fast to cover him.

    I read that too.

    I have set up a poll so we can all vote on who to sign as a Free Agent, and there is an article below about Free agency. I have not included Steve Francis in the poll yet because he is not as yet available. If I have missed somebody that is at least a second tier point guard, that we can sign and do not have to trade for, let me know and I will add them to the poll. JamFan

    i just hate to spend our entire mle on a player who has never played a minute in the NBA. we made a mistake with last years mle. we cant afford to make another mistake this year.

    Yeah I agree C. We need to get a guy in here that can for sure ball it up. We are going to need all the help we can get. I have a feeling we might be stuck with a bad lineup, so the MLE will be important!

    It sure looks like NJ is beating us there! I hope we can really see whats going on with this franchise and make a move. Also out of all the PG's listed on this post I dont want any of them! I would like to see Bell from Mil.
