Free Agent Watch 2008

So there have been a lot of posts/discussions about who we should be trying to trade for, but I am more interested in who we might pick up from free agency with our extra cap space.

And so, I have spent some days perusing potential free agents to be.

I think I just found the answer to our biggest problem.

First, I'd like to say that I think our biggest problem right now (and I feel lots of you will agree with me on this) is our defense. Enter: defensive specialist Ron Artest. Artest is going to be a free agent at the end of the year and I think he would be a great fit. With just over 2 steals per game, and the ability to lock down players (remember what he did to Roy already this year) he would be an amazing addition to our defense. Also his offense is nothing to scoff at.

And like I always say: "You can never have too many small forwards."

Anyway tell me what you think and list some other possible free agent pickups below.
