South Dragons Recruiting 2007

My idea of how the Dragons should be recruiting this year....

I clearly have too much spare time...

*Rosell Ellis, Carlos Powell, Larry Abney are the kind of guys im suggesting, not actually them (Abney will probably be re-signed, and Powell will get most likely get drafted, he's only 23)

What do people think? Any different suggestions?

Player Points Pos. Starters Key Bench Relief
Cortez Groves 10 PG Heal Martin Shanahan
Jacob Homes 9 SG Groves Hill
Shane Heal 8 SF Homes Ingles
Brad Hill 5 PF IMP Hobba Cannan
Luke Martin 4 C Pepper Burston
Matt Shanahan 4 IMPORT- PF Rosell Ellis, Carlos Powell, Larry Abney
Joe Ingles 1
Brent Hobba 1
Matt Burston* 6
Import 10 C- Ben Pepper
Ben Pepper 10
Development
Michael Zorich (PG)* 0
? (SG/SF) 0 Key
Ash Cannan (PF/C)* 0 = Contracted For 2007-2008
Total Cap Points 68 = Team Option 2007-2008*
Points Remaining 0 = Free-Agent Target

Hmmmm didn't come out as i hoped... copied from a spreadsheet...

Basically suggested signing Ben Pepper and a POWER-Forward Import (ie. Abney, Powell, Ellis) with the remaining 20 Cap Points...

Anyone else have any suggestions?

Or care lol?

Dont think the Dragons will sign Pepper, he's too slow to fit in with Heal run and gun offense. Abney will re-sign with Crocs or wont play NBL. Dont think Powell will be back next year. Ellis is the best option here. Dragons do need some big man help though.

Heal/martin
Groves/shanahan
Ingles/hill
Holmes/hobba
Ellis

With both imports gone they need a mobile big man, but I cant see any that will fit into Heal's system. Maybe Melmeth, Pero or matt knight??

Not sure man, I guess time will tell...

Knight is staying in Singapore and I think Melmeth is heading to the Blaze. I remember hearing Vasiljevic linked to someone - could be the Dragons?

isnt Shanahan retired....along the grape vine i heard it. and also Todd...it is hoLmes....not Homes. good to see u notice who you have on your roster. No luck with Powell & Abney...maybe Rosell if they cannot sign a decent and "bigger" big than him; is a work horse and plays bigger than what he is. will be re-signed if they cant get a quality big...

Ellis future as a Dragon will come down to who else they sign.

They ARE chasing Pepper and, I believe, they are also talking to Melmeth.

I heard Pero linked there too, but I couldn't imagine Heal being able to handle him. God, if Goorjian couldn't tame the beast.....Heal's got no hope.

Shanahan is definitely retired from playing. Thanks to Ninnis quietly and politely stepping aside for him to take up an Assistant's role.

I would have thought Nielsen would be being linked to the Dragons?
