Now That The Biggest Domino Has Fallen And Utah Will Be Matching Hayward's Offer...

Would you be interested in going after Wade, Bosh, or Melo?

I think there's no chance for us getting Melo. And it's not likely that we'd get either of the other guys either, but it's worth discussing. The dynamics of everything have shifted dramatically now.

Bosh is going to Houston. 

 

No chance Miami lets D-wade leave... especially after he opted out for them. 

 

 

No shot at any of those guys.

 

 

If Utah matches, it really hurts us.  Maybe we make an offer for Lance, but I'm still nervous about him with PJ on the roster. 

 

Maybe, we look to trade.

Yeah, none of the options seem ideal. But, Bosh would probably be the best option in terms of health and ability, but the issue there is good luck getting him to consider an offer while the Rockets have that max deal on the table underneath a 72-hour window. Not to mention we have two young, talented, lottery picks at the four.

Wade could be appealing in terms of storylines and such, but I don't trust him to make it through a full season, so he's not worth the money. Also, Riles had to have promised him a lifetime achievement contract or something being that he just forfeited 21 mil a year.

I'd just like to get in on the action if the fit is right.

I been saying this all along, out of all the players available, we had the best shot with Gordon. We made an offer, maybe too aggressive of an offer but you have to be aggressive when your dealing with restricted free agents, especially against a team that has a lot of money to play with.

 

I believe we loose out of Gordon because Utah is desperate and really has their backs against the wall. In the end, we will leave this free agency period with nothing accomplished. I agree that we should continue to save, but I think deep down MJ is getting sick and tired of being called cheap for one and secondly, he is wants to start off this new Hornets era by showing fans that the ownership is committed to the brand. This summer did not go according to plan.

Not sure why no one ever mentions Lance Stephenson. I love the guys attitude and he plays tough. I know he's easy to dislike but i grew up an Iverson fan lol.

As a warriors fan now, I would've been cool trading Thompson for Love (who I don't like) if I knew we'd replace Klay with Lance. GS could've beat the clippers if they were just a little tougher. GS is too soft imo and Lance would bring that toughness you need in the postseason.

I think people don't mention it because Lance/PJ is a dangerous combo and not in a good way

@RealGM: Broussard: Cavs offer Dion Waiters, Anthony Bennett, first round pick to Wolves for Kevin Love.

In lebrons letter he didn't mention playing with Wiggins, Cavs will eventually have to fold and include Wiggins.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
