yeah, the playoffs tasted good, though a little bittersweet for my taste.

all in all, we had good times... we had bad times. we bickered like sorority girls... and we chest bumped (albeit textually) like frat boys. 

and now here we are, collectively holding our own genitalia in one hand (or 2 for some of us) ... with another off season of speculation, high hopes, and prayers coming at us like an orange and blue locomotive.

so what do we want 1-12? 

me? i want to dump the 8 who are expiring... and build around the 4 who we're stuck with. below is an example. free agents i like who we might be able to squeeze in depending on the cap and the lone draft pick. 

for you capologists... share your knowledge if you think guys will cost too much to fit. i tried to keep it relatively realistic, though i know none of us know how much money we'll have to spend. 

1- jj barrea, TD, (a d-leaguer , rookie free agent or anthony carter)

2- shannon brown, landry

3- melo, thaddeus young (or sonny weems if we need to go cheaper)

4- amare, earl clark, joey dorsey

5- deandre jordan (or tyson as my 2nd choice), jordan williams (BIG center as our draft pick, or bismack biyombo or markeiff morris if available)

personally, i'm not a "get a 3rd star" guy... though i know many of you are. i'd rather go depth and build a team with youth, length... and some girth. 

what say you?
