Marko Jaric?

I think he would be a good pick-up, though I'm not sure what it would take to get him. I think we should be open to trading Cook and a pick for a decent PG.

I don't think he would be an upgrade from Smush. I've seen a lot of his games. He is more suited to be a back pg/sg/sf. He is better than what we have from sasha and luke. SO yeah i do it, just not sure about his contract situation.

^yeah, I don't know about his contract either, but certainly he isn't worth blowing the 2007 plan...

is the 2007 plan also known as the Bosh plan?

He signed a 5 or 6 year deal worth around 6 mil a year or so.

Jaric is nothing special, but he's got great size and can play very well at times. Plus he still has "potential"

You might remember me liking Jaric (along with AD, Watson and Mike
James) over the off-season.

He's got good length, can strike from deep, etc... not a pure PG. Lacking
a bit defensively, but not terrible. More or less a solid triangle fit in theory.

That said, I think the Wolves overpaid for him and we've got a bargain
in Smush.

I'd love to have him, just doubt it's worth the price.

Marko can't move latterally. How the T-Wolves thought they could play defense with both Wally and Marko out there, is a question to me.

We need a PG that can shoot and play defense. Come to think of it, we haven't had that for a long time now, probably since Michael Cooper. Yea, Fisher's defense was solid but that was only because he flopped and took hard charges....i digress.
