    I agree. If we sign him as a FA and don't lose any of our pieces. Unless it's some scrub like Sergio or Travis.

    Because he has won so many titles?

    Damnit!!!1

    Well as stated before in the 10795205 other Hedo threads...

    He is a capable Point Forward.
    He can play 1, 3 or 4.
    He can shoot.
    He is not a ball hog.
    He is smart.
    He can pass.
    He is a vet with leadership that we need.
    He has been to the Finals! lol
    He gives us a huge upgrade at the starting 3 spot.
    By him starting, that makes our bench that much stronger.
    He is tall. Our starting lineup would be gigantic.
    He is a match-up problem for opposing teams.
    He has proven to be clutch.

    There is some for now. Your move!

    Yeah like how he choked against us on that last second shot.
    And how he choked last night blocking Kobes potential game winning shot.

    He's not as good as you think he is, but I agree he's a good player and would be a good 6th man- better than what we have now.

    Hedo is the answer!

    Does anyone else see that Hedo is the answer? He starts at SF, he can handle the point like Brandon (or for that matter, kinda like Pip used to), he's clutch city, he has a deadly three, he spreads the defenses for Greg and LaMarcus, and he takes the scoring load off everyone.

    Boston, and Chicago before that, proved that you can win a championship without an all-star PG if you surround him with studs. And I like Blakey, he's very solid.

    Can we get Hedo, can we afford him, would he leave? Those answers I do not know.

    Re: Hedo is the answer!

    The guy is going to get a max deal, or close to.

    We have two guys who are going to get max deal in LMA and Roy. If Oden lives up to half the hype, he'll get a max deal as well. Can we have four max deals?

    Hedo would vault us into the elite, I agree. But he could be too expensive.

    Btw, Hedo is the type of player I hope Rudy can develop into. They have a similar skill set. Well, we really don't get to see Rudy's ability to make plays because Nate turned him into James Jones, but the skills are there!

    Wow, you really go all out when it comes to hoping don't you? Rudy never showed he could even get past his defender.

    Even if he has the skills, he'll never have the size, which gives Hedo such a huge advantage.

    Pass on Hedo.

    Not very athletic, not an efficient scorer, aging

    Not worth it.

    He's a great 3rd option to put next to Roy and Aldridge. He can handle the ball and I've seen him even run some pick and roll with Dwight Howard. This is exactly the type of player we need.
