Are the Horents in running for the 2010 free agent class? I don't know if they have the money or not for it but I think of a couple of nmaes that would be great for them like Lebron James, Yao ming, Rudy Gay, D-Wade, Amare, Albridge, Roy, and Bosh. Obviously theres more but I think these guys some up the best. I mean my choices to have are Rudy Gay, Albridge or Roy there all young and soon to be all stars and I think complement CP3. (I didn't choose Wade or Lebron because I don't think we have a chance)

Yeah Albridge looks like a stud.

Non of those guys will sign.

Unless we get rid of Peja and other cap space (maybe Tyson leaves?). In fact I think Tyson will leave from what I am hearing from George Shinn and Jeff Bower, they sound as if they want to get rid of him.

I just think this team is about to be like the Cleveland Browns and be one hit wonders. My faith in this team dies every time they lose, because when they lose they lose bad.

some ideas

im damn sure peja wont go, he will use his player option, as for TC, its all about loyalty. we cant get aldridge, he plays the same position as west. maybe we can get rudy gay, he will hate all the losing in griz.

Rudy Gay

Would be a great addition as a 3rd scorer and probably really affordable

got this from hoopsworld.com

First up, let’s start with the stars whose contracts expire following the 2009-2010 season and will then become honest-to-goodness free agents:

Joe Johnson
Ray Allen
Manu Ginobili
Marcus Camby
Tracey McGrady
Shaquille O’Neal
Brad Miller
Stephen Jackson
Jermaine O’Neal
Mike Miller
Rip Hamilton

The next grouping is those players that are signed thru 2011, but can opt out in 2010 if they so choose:

Yao Ming (owed 17.7 million in 10/11)
Amare Stoudamire (owed 17.7 million in 10/11)
LeBron James (owed 17.2 million in 10/11)
Dwayne Wade (owed 17.0 million in 10/11)
Chris Bosh (owed 17.1 million in 10/11)
Dirk Nowitzki (owed $21.5 million in 10/11)
Josh Howard (owed $11.8 million in 10/11)
Mike Redd (owed $18.3 million in 10/11)
Tyson Chandler (owed $12.8 million in 10/11)

This next list consists of contracts that are set to expire in 2010, but the player may choose to opt-out following the 2008-2009 season:
Steve Nash (owed $13.1 million in 09-10)
Carlos Boozer (owed $12.7 million in 09-10)
Chris Paul (owed $6 million in 09-10 / almost certain to sign an extension before becoming unrestricted)
Memo Okur (owed $9.0 million in 09-10)
Hedo Turkoglu (owed $7.4 million in 09-10)

In addition to the superstars listed above, these ‘second-tier’ players are set to hit the open market as well:
Ben Wallace
Larry Hughes
Zydrunas Ilgauskas (option to opt-out after 09/10 season)
Anderson Varejao (option to opt-out after 09/10 season)
Al Harrington
Darko Milicic
Udonis Haslem
Jamal Crawford (option to opt-out after 09/10 season)
Eddy Curry (option to opt-out after 09/10 season)
Amir Johnson
Derek Fisher
Raja Bell
T.J. Ford (player option – owed $8.5 million in 10/11)
Travis Outlaw
Bruce Bowen
Earl Watson
Luke Ridnour
Matt Harpring
Quentin Richardson
Damien Wilkins

We also must include the list of players that will actually eventually have value due solely to the fact their contracts come off the books in the summer of 2010:
Jerome James (proof that Isiah Thomas knew what he was doing all along!)
Cuttino Mobley
Brendan Haywood
Tim Thomas
Brian Cardinal
Antonio Davis
Mark Blount
Bobby Simmons
Troy Hudson
Darius Miles
Kenny Thomas
Shareef Abdul-Rahim
Matt Bonner
Etan Thomas

Last, but not least, we have the 2006 Draft Class. These players will all be restricted free-agents in 2010, if they haven’t already been inked to extensions:
Brandon Roy
Rudy Gay
LaMarcus Aldridge
Andrea Bargnani
Rajon Rondo

Tyrus Thomas
Kyle Lowry
Randy Foye
Marcus Williams
Josh Boone
Renaldo Balkman
Sergio Rodriguez
Ronnie Brewer

sorry, but you gotta rebuild

It is the sad reality that you need to rebuild.
You will NEVER get ROY or ALDRIDGE
I suggest a trade that portland would accept:
CP3 for blake ,rodriguez, outlaw,and portlands draft picks(i believe they have five)
this will save a lot of money and you will be recieving two young players and draft picks
It may be hard but think about it.
