At this point it would be hard to argue otherwise. Looks like a lottery pick, and he's playing like one. He doesn't remind me of Pat Bev at all....
Time to get younger. Bazemore or Kelly Oubre Jr.
Agree with all of your conclusions. If we carve out $800k of the taxpayer MLE to sign Melton, i believe that would leave us with about $4.5...
Fair enough. I'm just not too concerned with Capela signing the QO. Like you I would prefer a long term deal, but there's also positives from him...
Take Tucker and Gordon out and you're there. Either way, they are positive assets that could be flipped. Again...the idea isn't that you will use...
I think it would require an overpayment for sure, but $$$ has a way of changing minds. My guess is the offer right now is like 5 years $80 million.
You can still pay Capela next year. And I'm not necessarily advocating for creating room for free agency next year...I'm arguing for having the...
I really am fine with this. While it does put keeping Capela long term at risk, it also creates the possibility of being a player in free agency...
There are some advantages to a trade for Melo, which would almost certainly involve a 3rd team with cap space. The disadvantage is obvious...our...
If you're convinced you need a catcher, I like the Wilson Ramos idea better than Realmuto. He's an expiring, so the cost should be fairly low. I...
At one time I was in the Realmuto camp, but I don't see that in the plans anymore, mostly because of Stassi. The Astros have 4 more years of...
Its not uncommon for players to get injured doing random stuff. Perhaps Clint thought his contract wouldve been done by now. If I were Clint's...
From what I saw yesterday, he has definitely improved. Looks farther along than Nanu or Zhou. I don't think he will ever be able to play against...
There were questions about his back. Before that I think he was a projected late lottery pick.
I like playing these games, so here we go. Melo for the minimum. Trade Gordon, Tucker, Zhou and a 1st for Butler. Sign Llull to a 3 year, $15...
I like that idea. If Houston can somehow offload Anderson and only give up 2nds, that would be amazing.
He's certainly big enough and he looks like he's got a developed NBA body (as opposed to Zhou). Also looks like he's got enough tools on the...
Mostly agree here. A compromise may cost Capela $10+ million, but an injury could cost him his entire next contract...see Boogie. Capelas camp is...
And can't shoot or defend.
Would be good to get him back. We've spent a lot of time focusing on our starting SF spot, but there's a lot left to do with the bench.
