B/R predicts we sign Deng


Recommended Posts

sorry do not want. hes 29 and has missed 124 games to injury. charlotte needs to sign some young vets monroe, parsons, stephenson etc.

 

I mean, Lebron is 29 and Melo is like 30, but we'd want them despite their age? lol.  The injury thing I'll give you though, I hate injury prone guys.

 

Those guys mentioned probably won't get away from their teams, we may get desperate and drop money on Deng feeling we have to.

We don't need a 3pt shooter. We need shooters.

Should we go after Redick?

Really? We were like 28th in the league in three point shooting and you want a one-dimensional player who makes his living at the rim?

I don't want just a three point shooter, I want a complete player. I've seen you complain about Henderson more than anyone and now you want a player that is a slightly better version of him playing next to him? That would be the worst shooting combo in the NBA.

Deng would be a good pick up if he signs in the region of $12 million. He'd give us an excellent player on defense, but he would also add some firepower since he averages a career 16ppg which is pretty much double what MKG averages. So if he says healthy, he's an upgrade on MKG. Also, it can take some pressure off MKG because he'd be coming off the bench to face up against the opposition rotation.

That said, I would probably look at Stephenson as my realistic free agent pick up this off season. But Deng would still be a solid pick up.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
