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..

    • Dan tends to attack one specific position group per offseason and the sprinkle others throughout the roster. He extended Moton, signed Hunt, Lewis, Nijman one offseason and then extended Brown and signed Wharton and Hunt and drafted Jackson next offseason. My guess is he attacks LB and Edge this offseason.    1. What do you do with Icky? Likely a scratch for next season and due a massive contract (if healthy) They will bring back Nijman and Christensen and draft a guy on Day 2 is my guess and hope one of them can fill the hole. 2. Coker has the talent for 2nd WR, but do you pay a guy who gets hurt that premium? I think hes your number 3 simply due to risk. Will the Panthers seek another vet or go surprisingly high in the draft? They will probably sign him more and longer than the RFA Tender to keep him happy and not break the bank in the process. Can see them getting a Vet in FA like Tutu Atwell or Hollywood Brown. Somebody with speed but also isn’t overly expensive. I think Horn and Tremayne stick around and unfortunately Legette. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tremble released and a real TE in brought in, there is a good FA group this year. 3. Do you give X more feature time? Or cut bait now? I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded him but I’m willing to bet he gets one more year. Maybe Canales can find a role like Shenault had with McAdoo.  4. Planning the long term/short term on OL Like I said I think Christensen and Nijman are brought back for T with a Day 2 rookie and prayer something sticks. Moton, Hunt, Lewis return ofcourse. Probably resign Corbett as a safeguard at Center but I think they go C in the 1st or 2nd. Wouldn’t be shocked to see Morgan trade to the back end of the 1st to get a solid C and add picks. 5. How do you address LB? I think Rozeboom leaves. Hoping CJ Allen or Sonny Styles is still there is too big of a risk. They probably go get Kaden Elliss or Leo Chenal and pay good money for them. Maybe a guy on Day 3 for depth with Cherelus and Martin-Scott. Also think he takes a swing at Edge, wouldn’t be shocked to see Hendrickson or Oweh here.  6. Do you bank of Chuba bouncing back?    I think Chuba remains Chuba. There are some decent change of pace backs out there this year that will be cheap. Still developing Etienne and Brooks may be healthy. I think it’s Chuba and that crew maybe a veteran that’s not Dowdle. More like Deejay Dallas who was here already once.    I also think Dalton calls it and they get an upgrade at back up. Nobody that wouldn’t endanger Bryce’s job but somebody that isn’t 55 years old either.   
    • This is my answer. If I got board I would just do guest drop ins to obscure podcasts but would definitely collect the cash from Tepper.
