I don’t want to lose Terry just yet. The man can absolutely ball and gives this young team a needed attitude. I don’t see us being able to retain him after this upcoming season. I rather have him for a year and lose him for nothing next year. Maybe you don’t lose him for nothing if you can work out a sign in trade. Hopefully if anyone gets traded that it’ll be Gordon Hayward. I don’t hate the man but he’s just so injury proned. Maybe GSW can take him off our hands. 

If the Hornets are still in play for lauri, then something has to be going on with the Oubre deal. W/e the case is, this is freaking crazy.

Not the biggest Wiseman fan.  Also, saw a Bulls fan saying how soft Lauri Mark is and that he is atrocious on defense.  Ouch

The life of a small market team my friend. I'll take any improvement that's available but none will be without flaws.

If the plan is not to give Terry some huge contract then now is the time to trade him

I'd rather trade him while the team can and get something back instead of just letting him walk next year. The only thing about trading Terry now is that letting both Graham and Monk go leaves the Hornets very thin at guard. Though I guess Gordon can play the 2 with Miles at the 3.

if Mitch really wants to make this happen - I trust him..

not sure what we would have to give up but after learning about the protections around the 1st Rnd pick we got for Graham - I wouldn't mind throwing that into a sign & trade for Markkanen if it seals the deal.. that 1st Rnd pick will most likely turn into two 2nd Rounders..

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
