The Whole let's trade Kemba crowd

If he stays, great. Most fans want that. If he leaves in the off season it will be a bad move to get nothing. That is what most of the trade Kemba crowd is thinking (which did include me). If he truly wants to be here, he will stay. Players always say nice things about where they are currently playing in a contract year, not all stay there after that season. It is not idiotic to try to get something of value for a player who could leave with no compensation and burn a hole through the following season as well. In this case, Kemba is likely to stay after recent inside info. So, if it all goes according to plan there is no need to trade him. I would be getting the contract done ASAP.

Yeah, I still want to tank. This team has too many inconsistent players to do anything. Kemba is even inconsistent. If he could consistently average 27 ppg we would be fine. But, this dude can't even score well against the damn Bulls. He fuging struggled tonight. Tank and try to get Zion.

I swear you don't watch the games. Kemba fought through double teams all fuging night and when he would dish to a wide open shooter they fuging bricked almost every time. Marvin and Nic were fuging 2-12 from three and we're paying them a combined 30 million+ this season and playing them 30+ minutes a night. No team has a chance to win when that happens. But like usual we have a chance at the end to win the game and Nic Batum fuging blows it with a terrible inbound pass. Nic has single handedly lost us 2 of our 5 games this season. I am honestly at the point where I think this team would be better off if we just buy him out of his contract. I don't think we would be able to get anyone to trade for him and he is losing us games when he is on the court.

I honestly don't even know how Kemba scores more than 20 a game with how much defensive focus is put on him. Notice how almost every time one other guy on the team scores more than 20 we win. Swap Batum out with a guy like Khris Middleton and we are a top 4 team in the east.

Tanking doesn't help us with Batum's contract on the books. I never thought I would hate another player more than I hated Boris Diaw, but man was I wrong. How the fug do you only score 13 points in 38 damn minutes fug me.

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
