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.

    • A team should always be putting at least one or two draft picks in at tackle and guard each season. Those guys just don't last nearly long enough and those that do get very, very expensive. In our situation, we need a little more time to see what the Icky injury works itself out to. Njiman performed really well out there and if this injury lingers into the next season, then he might do well enough there to hold the line for the team. Or we could draft early if there is a stud LOT in the draft when our spot comes along.  Honestly, we may be looking at replacing both LT and RT this season at this point. Moton is getting long in the tooth and while he deserves a shot to go for a playoff run with this team, I don't know whether we will really see him come back next season yet. It's still so darned early in all of this to say.
    • Because we had a ton of things go our way this year and made the playoffs with a -70 point differential.  This year was the outlier.  Regression to the mean is unavoidable.  So the team will have to significantly improve to beat 8 wins next year.
    • One thing I noticed in this game (and I say this as the biggest of Bryce Young haters) is that Bryce did do a solid job of throwing into voids in this game, and leading receivers on crossers.  There were a few times where I was thinking "where the hell is he throwing it" only for a receiver to appear out of nowhere and catch it in stride.  Mike McDaniel might be a guy that can squeeze a little bit of production out of the otherwise ghastly Bryce Young. His offenses heavily feature that style of passing game.  I've heard Idzik is drawing interest from other teams.  If so, bringing McDaniel in at OC would be a stellar move.  I know it'll never happen, but fun to think about.
