Updated after Season 4, Sim 7
On the Block now (in approximate order of "will cost the least" to "will cost the most")
Mark Olberding - Enhanced/html/players/player251.htm
Uh, gives you 6 fouls, on a very affordable deal. Looking for points only here. 1984 ALL STAR WEEKEND SLAM DUNK CHAMPION!
Maurice Lucas - Enhanced/html/players/player216.htm
Still scores and rebounds, but currently buried on my bench. Team option next year gives you the option to dump him if he doesn't work out with no future cap implications. Also could be had for points only.
Jim Spanarkel - Enhanced/html/players/player302.htm
I have a logjam at guard and either Spanarkel or Dailey can be had. I value Jim less than Dailey, and he is expiring this season, but he *does* come with Bird Rights if you're a team that projects to be over the cap. I value Spanarkel at approximately a late 1st-round pick (think Bucks 1984 first or Warriors 1984 first). Don't plan to move both Dailey and Spanarkel.
Quentin Dailey - Enhanced/html/players/player733.htm
See above; I value Dailey a bit more than I do Spanarkel due to age and contract (one more year on his rookie deal). Finally got into my rotation and averaged 17.7 ppg in 22.1 mpg during the first 15 days of February (7 games), so he's got some scoring punch. Could be yours for a first that isn't likely to be in the bottom 5 picks of the draft. Don't plan to move both Dailey and Spanarkel.
Thurl Bailey - Enhanced/html/players/player650.htm
#12 pick in the recent draft. Raw and not ready to start for me yet. Not really looking to move him, but would probably listen for a couple of mid-teens picks or a (late) lottery pick.
