So let me get this straight. We hate B R and put no weight in what they have to say when its something negative, especially bout the Panthers.

And when they "predict" something positive we jump on it like its actually going to happen.

Its either credable or its not. Can't go back and forth to suit needs.

I understand MKG is important to the defense, but having him able to come in and play defense against the 2nd units of another team would be huge.   Unlike it seems everyone, I am not sold on Taylor.  So we need, imo, a more solid backup even if we keep MKG.  May as well get Deng (if reasonable).  Sign Deng, sign McRoberts, and maybe bring in Sessions or someone to backup Kemba.  Done.

So besides defense (which MKG already plays well), what does Deng bring to this team? 44% of his shots come in the paint, that would have to change if we signed him as the paint is Al's area.

Not to mention, in Chicago Deng was known as the glue guy. Well that sounds awfully familiar. How many glue guys does a team need?

He has pedestrian shooting percentages and he struggles to create his own shot. He does bring defense and rebounding to the game but so does MKG.

Deng is essentially a one-dimensional player that would be awesome for a team like the Spurs. However for a team that lacks perimeter scoring, he provides nothing that we don't already have.

I said not to give him $20 million dollars per year and obviously if we would have we wouldn't even be in contention to sign a player like Luol Deng...

So how bout you take that ego of yours and drop it in the trash.

You did not say $20!!!! Wow. Wth

The most we were talking was $15-16.

Just zip it.

Take that ego of urs in up it your ass.

Bet if we sign Deng, you'd have the exact opposite to say about him.

Whatever you say bud...

I'd go to the doctor if I were you because it seems as if you are slightly aggressive toward everyone on this board, a chronic liar, and have a low basketball iq... that could be pretty dangerous.

Lol. I believe you're the one who need to. Lying straight through your teeth. Remember you played soccer for D1 and worked for the Panthers?

Just keeping piling lies up on top of one another. Pretty soon it'd be taller than the Twin Towers.

Here's a few other tidbits...

Prior to trading Deng the Bulls were 10-13, the month after trading Deng the Bulls went 11-7.

Deng also turned down a 10 mil (per year) extension from Chicago. He's probably looking for around $12 million per year.

If you're going to sign Deng for $12m per year why not just offer Hayward a max or Parsons 13m per year. It makes no sense.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By Basbear · Posted

      Im not firm on many things football, but this statement or belief or strategy I am 100% for. Full Offseason the goal is to make the playoffs. Week 1, 1000% I want to win. Weeks 2-10,  1000% I want to win. Until the math stats 0.000000000% chance at NO playoffs, I want to win. *Once* there's no chance at the playoffs, I want to 100% lose every game until the end. You are still loser at 2-15 or 5-12, I want to never lose like this again. I want the best value for losing and suffering. Again the only goal is playoffs. Once in the playoffs anything can happen, I want to win the whole dam show. If you happen to lose in the first round, that's perfectly fine and lets work hard this upcoming off-season to get another chance to make them.  This is the ONLY way to play in the NFL. Anyone not understanding this method of strategy, please call your doctor for a visit...

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      Purdy's good but at the end of the day you're paying first class money for a business class seat.  It's a big problem with the salary cap.  QBs take most of it whether they are Pat Mahomes or not.

      Purdy saved the 49ers from that three 1st picks for Trey Lance. People forget that. People also forget he should have MVP votes for the 23 season. He's been any where from the 8th(his best/23) to 14th ranked QB, he's legit and guys around top 10 get paid as QBs.....guys in 28th get paid too, he's 4x the QB Trevor Lawrence is and better than BY by miles as well...even without CMC, Samuel(whos a RB playing WE), and half the OL.    *BUT*    You non-believers missed this ultra important mistake that honestly made me reconsider all the praise I gave him. https://www.si.com/nfl/49ers/news/49ers-qb-brock-purdy-throws-blind-40-percent   That's is damming to my case and reset my thinking of his. That's nuclear scary now and I need some time.  too honest for me to overlook.
