RE:Free Agent Big Men
From that list, I would probably be interested in the following:
Reggie Evans- probably my first pick; would Seattle match $4 mil per year or thereabouts? He doesn't have the athleticism, but with Damp, Dirk, and Josh, he could make us the best rebounding team in the league. We could really exploit a poor rebounding team like Phoenix.
Steven Hunter- good size and athleticism, may want to stay in Phoenix
Uncle Cliffy- nearly fosilized, but still a quality defender. Might consider him if he came cheaply.
Chris Anderson- definitely has the athleticism we're looking for...
ZaZa Pachulia- hard-nosed player, would Milwaukee keep him and Gad if they draft Bogut?
I might consider Mikki Moore or hard-working, talent-free Mark Madsen for minimum salaries...
This is all assuming that the really desirable guys (Big Z, Dalembert, Gadzuric) get more than the MLE.
