question is are we tanking are we still trying to go from good to great... I see us doing marcus morris and kmart for Jsmooth Lowry/Scola/PP for Gasol Gasol Jsmoth Parsons Lamb Dragic throw everything at Hibbert Hibbert/Camby Gasol/DMO Jsmooth/Parsons Lamb Dragic/Livingston
It seems I'm the only person on this board who actually loves all the players we drafted. One, because they're good and two because they make guys who were previously expendable (Scola/Lowry/Martin/Patterson/Morris) even more so. Somehow end up with this rotation -- Dragic/(a good back up point guard) Lamb/Lee Parsons/White Scola/Donuts/Jones (A great center)/Camby Go Morey go!
man gasol's contract is just so cancerous i cant stomach paying him 20 mil he doesnt deserve it , lets be realistic whatever we throw @ hibbert or eric gordon is gna be matched so take them outta the equation , and jsmoove is worth more than kevin martin (expiring) + morris an unproven rookie which could be a terrible bust , the hawks wouldve probably gone for dally + kevin martin + some rookie or pick but honestly jsmith is not an allstar hes not the guy you want to lead ur franchise hes not worth it , gasol if he were making 14 mill would be worth it but honestly at this point lowrys gotta go and kevin martin too and either ppat or scola because were clogged up @ pf although i think if they are to be kept i think either terrence jones or royce white will play the 3 i just dont feel morris is up to it
Well, first and foremost, I'd like to not have 8 PFs on the roster when Free Agency hits. That definitely needs to change.
well somethings gonna change , a trade here or there to move some of our old players for future picks atleast. rebuilding has finally begun. like our picks btw.
As annoying as it has been with all these forwards, I'm trying to not say we should find another GM till after and possibilities of trades have passed. Seriously, DM is trying to force my blood pressure up and I'm only 23
Keep: Parsons, dragic, lamb, camby Trade: Terrence Jones, Royce White, kmart, lowry, scola Obtain: JSmoove
man its hard seeing some morey haters. whine whine whine. should i call the wambulance? its not easy bringing in a star. could YOU bring one in? tanking has been proven as no sure bet. the draft is risky. very risky. charlotte just had the WORST season of all time and got f'ed out of the one true star. morey is a very smart GM and it pains me to see his fan base give up on him. hes a great GM. smarter than most in the league. usually always spots talent very well and at great values. our worst contract is luis scola. do you realize how many teams would die to have that situation? this process does take time. be patient. watch these kids grow. their is still potential with our roster. bring in a superstar or two, which we have the pieces to SELL, ALL while still being able to keep GOOD players, and we may have something. In Morey I Trust.
PG Lowry, Fortson, (Dragic?) SG Martin, Lee, Lamb SF Parsons, Morris, Royce?, PF Scola, Patterson, Donuts, Jones?, Leuer, Brockman C Camby?, Greg Smith? Morey has some major decisions to make and this draft only complicated things. I'm guessing there will be a buyout for Brockman, but other than that I dunno what the **** can happen. Maybe they decline Leuer's contract extension as well. Maybe they play Donuts at center. Who knows? All the major trades fell thru and we are left with no center under contract, a crap load of tweeners, a disgruntled Lowry under contract, and the better PG with Dragic without a contract and nowhere for him to start. Morey has a big logjam to clean up and I don't really know how he does it.
Yeah he is a smart GM, but we are left with 9 PF's on our roster and a coach that sounded despondent at the press conference. Not exactly inspiring.
