I'm very similar to you but would consider Mo Williams. Ilyasova also intrigues me. He can play the 3 or 4 and would be a sweet stretch 4. He shot 38% from 3 or so I think. Don't feel like looking it up. He put up some monster games the last couple months and has elite rebounding numbers. I think if we're going PG, we should seriously consider Augustin. He'd be relatively cheap (3-4M a year?), especially compared to Dragic (who I have a bad feeling about) I think. I also don't think many people are high on him. But he's young (24), had solid pg numbers this year (6.4 assists in just 29.3 minutes on a talent-void Charlotte team this year; that's 7.42 in 34 minutes a game) and could probably put up 8.5-9 dimes here in starter's minutes considering the increase in talent around him. Nothing to sneeze about. How is he at creating? Penetrating? Shooting? I have to think his awful shooting this year is more of a reflection of just how bad his team was. Not him necessarily. Does he feel like a loser from those who've watched him? His teams always sucked in the NBA. Didn't his Texas teams underachieve? That would be my biggest concern. Winning. Maybe IQ.
If we don't land the GS pick, I'd strongly consider him--three years, 8M?
I'd also consider maybe making a hard push for Batum and even overpay some to force Portland's hand. If that well dries up, I'd definitely go after Rush. Hell, if the word is Batum will cost too much, I may even pursue Rush first.
Ilyasova intrigues me most after that.
After that, Ilyasova tickles my fancy.
Then Hill, Nash, Williams, Lee and Bayless.
