With the Magic getting the 1st pick, MO is likely to leave. With all the big men that's available,  this is the one I'd love to take a shot on. Still young and will have a true point guard to help. He fits the timeline of the other players.

I'm up for that. He is still young with room for improvement. Melo would feed him. 

if we can improve the 5 position we will be a major force next season.

I definitely  have the same logic!! I agree entirely!!! The bonus is he spaces the floor too, so the offense wouldn't get crowded in the paint.  Pick n Roll and Pick and Pop would be  critical.

he's been kind of a disappointment in his nba career. he had so much potential at texas

I agree he started out slow. I think his situation  was the usual Clifford stigma before he actually  got a chance. His timing was off bc Orlando  went out and signed Carter and practically  had to play him at 5. Minutes under the new regime showed he was a very solid player but they botched his development  early on and now he peaking but doesn't fit them. Bamba will thrive at his next stop if he gets burn and a team that believes in him.

      Draft Week Rumors, Leaks and Media Draftniks Final Mocks

      ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st.

      I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
