Until the gross move, we didn't have much money to spend. So he indeed was bargain shopping. Doesn't mean he is cheap, we just didn't have the capital to make moves for other players.

This sucks, we could have had him. Oh well.

Then I guess every other GMs are bargain shoppers also. Fans act like Gettleman is the only one signing guys for 1yr contracts, etc.

No, you're just acting naive and thinking we're the only landing spot for free agents.

In most cases.. Those other teams are either contenders, which make them a lot more attractive than us. Or they are the former team of the player. So they don't want to move and learn a new system.

Just more reason for these players to take one year deals.

All the guys that Gettleman signed weren't going to get any bigger contract elsewhere. Do you believe that with me? Ok

    • Moved to Tuesday, not Wednes because of scheduling with Flyers game or something in Philly. But I don't feel good about the Heat.  It has been a great season regardless.  Team just been playing so hard to move up since a bad start and just picked a bad time to get gassed.  It's like almost everyone is shooting cold at the same time even wide open shots.   Maybe atmosphere and playoffs kick off a spark.  I'd rather be in a series than a one and done though. The team has a good foundation to build on regardless of what happens.

    • I'm more of a Hornets fan than I am a Panthers fan, I've watched a ton of this franchise the last 20 years. I post all day on RealGM. Don't get your hopes up, this is setting us up for a 20 point loss to the Heat and a swift end to the season. Spoelstra has always solved us, the Heat have two bigs that we have no answers for, and Jaquez is a certified Hornets killer that always plays us like he has a grudge on us. The Hornets being a top 10 team all year and a top 5 team the last half of the year and then flat out missing the playoffs is incredibly on brand for this crappy, horrendous franchise. I would love to be proven wrong. But I've suffered enough to know this little scheme the team is pulling. We finished 2 games out of 6th and guaranteed playoffs, and we blew two games to the Pacers and Nets earlier in the season, when they weren't trying to win. It's just who we are, Hornets DNA
