We will tag one. Norwell is my guess. 

Maybe or maybe not.

The first year cap hit of a long term deal is usually a lot cheaper than a tag number.  If you are looking to add multiple free agents a long term deal would leave more available for this year.

Does Hurney spend big time to try and win now to save his and RR job.  With new ownership coming in I would view this year as a one year audition.

or

Does the ownership go cheap?  No reason to have large cash spending before sale.  Singing bonuses are often paid upfront.

There is no maybe. 90% chance Norwell gets a deal. 10% chance we tag him. Anything else is just absurd.

I don’t see the point in being cheap right now. We are at a point where we have repeatedly shown how far Cam can go with a limited supporting cast. Why not bite the bullet and get him the weapons he needs to win the SB? What’s the point in being cheap with the cap if you aren’t winning and wasting your window of success. The point of the game is to win not to be cheap.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
