Could this Hayward Offer fug up our plan B?

If the Jazz sit on this offer sheet for the full 72 hours, and then the free agency musical chairs begins, could this screw up any back up plans? 

 

I don't know for sure, but I would imagine we could still talk to guys and tell them our offer, but we couldn't officially make it until the Jazz matched. 

 

Starting tonight.  Shi is about to get cray.

Seems to me that if they were trying to fug us, they wouldn't tell the whole world they were going to match.

We can still talk to agents and tell them what we would be offering their clients if deal falls through.

You would think (hope) that Cho would have already reached out to his plan B to let him know that he is next in line.  No downside to letting people know so that they can weigh the pros and cons of waiting out the Gordon situation.

 

True man. 

 

Cho: "Hey man we are really interested in you coming to Charlotte, but we need to see if this other guy that we like more is allowed to come here.  Mind waiting like 75 hours?"

I'm worried, but I don't think Im really am. LBJ, Melo, and Bosh are going to take their time. I don't think anything will start to happen until early next week. Guys like Lance, Deng, and Parsons will all wait for them. And, now seeing what they can get after seeing what GH just got from us.

GH can't sign the contract until tomorrow too. We'll know by Sunday first sure.

The only guy that I would be sort of opposed to signing is Ariza. Not that I don't like him, but I don't want to give him too much money.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if they hold out and lock that contract to our books for 3 days, aren't they doing the same to themselves if they plan to match?

They'd be the biggest dumbasses in nba history if all they ended up with is the same team as last year.

    • I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo. 
    • Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.
