Surely a kid that ran the DAntoni offense in the Olympics and a kid that likes to play defense and a kid that will demand others play defense would be a wise DW move AND a kid that would be a great draw for the BIG FAs, Im sure LBJ wouldnt mind playing with CP3? Send Duhon and Jeffries for CP and Peja, Peja on his last legs would still thrive in DAntoni's system. I heard rumor the owner is moving people(Emeka) when they just got him so maybe DW can work some things out. I know I know wishful thinking Tommy

Upside is used to describe potential, as in, how much better can this player get in the future? Because of his body and style of play, Jordan Hill has tremendous upside and could one day be come much, much better than he is right now. He just needs to adjust to the NBA game and add some size to his frame. Conversely, Brandon Jennings or Stephen Curry have less upside, as they both are pretty good players right now and are limited in how much better they can actually get. BJ is averaging 20 ppg. He's gonna do this, with small fluxuations, for the rest of his career. He is going to be a 20 point scorer who can somewhat get his team involved in the offense. He is a great player but I wouldnt say he had more upside. And, again, WE DONT NEED ANOTHER 20PPG SCORER. Harrington can do it, Nate can do it. Gallo, Douglas, Chandler, Lee, Hughes could all potentially score 15-20 a night. Guys who can score like Jennings are everywhere in the NBA. We gave one away last year in Jamal Crawford. The Warriors just gave one away in Stephen Jackson. You don't really see teams giving away skilled big-men, or even really any big men. I dont think you understand the word upside.
