if they do....then we got another piece to build with as far as a young player..

if they don't...Free agency becomes more important..

as far as coach...we should move on from Byron. Obviously you'd consider Walton...but a super young coach with a super young team is something you have to think about.

then also if Jim Buss is let go....and if we bring Phil back....that's going to impact who we get as a coach.

then you have to decide whether you keep all our young guys...or you use one of them to get a more established player..or a guy who is a better fit for what we're going to do moving forward...

I have my preferences for what I want us to do...but until the ping pong balls play out.... I'll wait till then to speak on it.
