"On December 24, 2014, he was traded to the Phoenix Suns in exchange for Anthony Tolliver. However, the Suns waived him on January 9, 2015 before appearing in a game for them"
Very athletic SF/PF, would be a good fit for the squad.
If they aren't bringing back DQ or other replacements mentioned then I highly doubt they'd be going heavy after this guy... Nice thought, but can't see it happening!
Maybe just wait to see who they go for rather than start a post on every guy waived in the NBA. Because this time of year there are a few!!!

Anon...Dean said there is no point bringing in a player just for the sake of it. The player they bring in needs to be one who will make an impact.
To me that hints at someone better and more pricey than DQ...DQ has been tried and didnt work so why revisit that now when they need someone who can win them games?
They win games with dq. They lost like 7 straight when motum joined the team

Iverson is available, maybe someone can talk Shaq out of retirement. Heck, maybe offer Magic Johnson part ownership and he might play.
Man, I'm so sick of people chucking out random names as a replacement. What's wrong with just going with what we got, rely on chemistry and if we don't make it save the cash for next year.

Bender...wont have the cash next year as they have to pay a back loaded contract to Motum.

But won't be paying a back-loaded salary to Gibson (as they are this year) or an overpriced wage to Schenscher.
Bender couldn't disagree with your mindset towards success THIS season anymore. The chemistry hasn't worked enough as is, so as a pro team you make changes adjust. This isn't church basketball. Its a pro league, you should be expecting more as a fan, from the team you support.

XY...you are correct in that they wont be paying those but Gibbo, Schenscher, Peach, Creek & Teys are all out of contract I believe. I think we will end up paying more for some of those than their current salaries - that's if we can re-sign them with the new Brisbane team coming in.
