[Fox 26] Morey to meet with Omer Asik in LA tonight

You see Thibodeau's system making Carlos Boozer look good on D? Me neither.

 

Traded. Not FA.

 

For a while he was playing good D for a while which wa suprising

 

8 mil is too much.

And before I get asked what other center I would want for 8 mil...I'd either not go for a center and bring Camby back, or I'd add a handful of millions to the 8 mil and go after Hibbert.

 

Because I've seen the guy play... he's a very good defender in every aspect. But even if I hadn't seen him at all, there are a ton of people around the league that have been saying the same exact thing for years.

Yet everyone here had absolutely no problem with going after Andre Drummond, despite his 29% free throw shooting in college.

The "Hack-A-(whoever)" is so overblown.

 

Will we even offer Roy hibbert a deal or does he till hate us?

 

How can so many people complain about this move when there's not much difference between Asik and Tyson Chandler and DeAndre Jordan, two guys the board would love to have?

 

DeAndre Jordan sucks man.. and is WAY overpaid

Tyson Chandler is overpaid too, but at least he has intangibles that make up for it

 

I think Asik is overrated by ClutchFans. Outside of rebounding, he's terrible on the offensive end of the court. He's unathletic, slow, and is a major flopper. I'm not sure how well his game will translate once he starts getting big mins. That being said, I wouldn't mind him for the right price. $8 million per year for the life of the contract seems fair to me, because of his impact on defense. If he's asking for $10 million or more or if he gets that type of offer from Portland or another, I would let him walk.

The Rockets should at least offer Hibbert the max and force the Pacers to match it, which they'll do.

 

Who cares, Indy will match it.

 

Have they changed the waiting period for matching an offer for a restricted player in this CBA?

 

didnt deandre jordan get 11 per year? and he is straight GARBAGE with no rebounding and little defense aside from occasional block. Camby made 12 mill and unless he is willing to accept ALOT less he wont be a rocket this season.

 

Yes, 3 days I believe.^^

 

They would not have gotten to the Finals if not for his ability to defend the post without help in the 2nd and 3rd rounds.

 

man you guys still havent learns moreys system after all these years? NO person on this site has overrated the guy saying he is a savior or will take us to playoffs lol. He brings defense and rebounding thats it. He wont even get paid like the top centers with 8mill per season BUT he is more valuable than dragic when on the market. Not many centers in the league available in FA. If you can find one better please type his name. List below:

this is the group to choos from minus hibbert and mcgee who will be playing for their current teams.

 

You know what though bro, If we sign the guy I will root like hell for him & hope I'm dead wrong. I maybe but I doubt it.

 

Has to make Houston's pitch a little more appealing right? Daryl himself was at Asik's doorstep the moment FA period began.

 

Lol Howard just requested a trade to the Nets

 

For sure... I would have been the same exact way with Drummond lol

 

Still hates us, can't even get him in a room with us because he's afraid Chuck Hayes will pop up and f*** him up before we sen him to the DLeague.
