KK, as your agent....

  1. 1. I advise you to...

    • Sit out preseason activities until we get a long term deal done. Not worth the risk.

    • Be a team player and play out your rookie deal and get paid next year.

Honestly, he can't really hold out, the penalties are too steep now.

 

DG isn't liking some of these defensive players contracts, and now has a promising rook backing KK up....DG has the leverage here, not KK.

A lot of teams (read:most) are in cap hell and/or have far more pressing issues than to give KK insane money.

can you imagine what's going through Getty's mind as he looks at who he has to sign over the next 3 years?  Cam and Luke signed team-friendly deals because they want to win, but we can't expect that from everyone.  

This is the price to pay for having excellent players. NO ONE wants KK back more than me, but not at the expense of Trai, White Buffalo, Star and Benji, just to name a few.  I hated losing Josh, Smitty and Dwill.  

But 15 and 1 is not a small thing.  And we didn't get a ring.  Pats have multiple rings  because they stayed competitive for so long.  Sure some years they didn't get to the AFC championship game, but who really thinks you can do that 3 or 4 years in a row?

If DG and KK aren't close in a deal, then I'd let him play in his contract year and take it from there.  We'd get to see more of our 1st round pick.  With Love and our signing the best DT Atlanta had, we'll be ok if he sits out.  Not as good as with KK, but ok.

Gett needs to make more money.

If I was his agent, since I'd have a personal financial incentive, I'd try to get him the most money possible from whatever team is willing to pay it. If I was his friend, family member or close confidant, I would tell him to sign a deal now for less than market value and get that guaranteed money now without having to play another year on the rookie contract. And on a team like the Panthers he'll win more and be well known and have the ability to bring in sponsor money instead of being unknown while stuck on some perennial loser like the Jags.

    • Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic
    • I'd hire him in a heartbeat. Hell if he wanted the job, I'd have Canales packing his poo right now and I don't dislike Canales. It's just that firing a 106-58 coach is crazy work. That's a 65% winning percentage. That's the equivalent of averaging 11 wins a season. That's incomprehensible for a fanbase That's never experienced back to back winning seaons.
