Pekovic hearing Blazers want him is compliment

Bag of stale cheetos, Luke Babbitt and Jared Jeffries?

 

Really stale cheetos


Seriously though, dude has a PER of 21.5. He blocks a ton of shots and makes people think twice about going to the middle. I would take him in a heartbeat

 

Oh - I was just talking in terms of this season. No sense in trying to trade for Jefferson, which I thought someone suggested.
But in terms of this summer - I agree. Leave Jefferson out of the equation entirely. If Pek can be had for cheap (he can't, but...) then consider him as a "last resort". And if Hickson can be retained for cheap (he can't, but...) then keep him as our back-up PF. But we absolutely shouldn't plan on any of those guys being our C next season.

I'm in the camp of trading for a C. If you can't do that then I guess I'd look at someone like Kaman on a 2-year deal before spending big money on Pek.

 

Biedrins?

 

Exactly the type of center we need. Pek is not that.

 

Pek is very different to be sure, but he does clog the middle

 

McGee makes 10 million/yr. I'd take Pek over McGee

 

Pek will probably make more

 

Pek will easily make more imo. Big man tax is ridiculous.

 

Well he is much more productive than McGee. Should be an intersting summer, I don't see Pek getting more than a 10-11 million offer, but this is the NBA . . . and McGee makes 10 million/yr, so never know.

 

Kahn is going to get trolled so hard!

Force their hand by making them match a max offer.

Kevin Love wanted the max but settled on his shorter deal. How will he feel when Kahn gives a lesser player than himself the deal he wanted?

​

 

I'd very easily take McGee over Pek. Prefer his defense and shot blocking to Pek's.

 

What could we give up to get him though?

I guess if they are looking to dump salary we could take him on for merely a 2nd rounder (not saying they would go for that) this summer.

 

Pek has far and away the coolest tattoo in the NBA.

 

Would you prefer his idiot mentality and lack of work ethic too?

George Karl says McGee is lazy and crazy.

Not a good combo if I'm spending $10 million per year.

There is a reason Kosta Koufos is playing more than McGee.

 

Yeah, we don't have much. Like you said, if they wanted to do it as a dump, sweet, we're in great position for that. We could potentially have our pick, as well as Leonard in some fashion of a deal in the offseason, I dunno.

 

I think Denver would love to get rid of McGee if they can find a team who would take on his contract.

 

Maybe 5 years ago. This summer for $1.2M, maybe.

 

makes you wonder why he is only playing 18 mpg, george karl must be an idiot

 

If McGee even had half of a brain he'd be a superstar, but at best he ate half a brain one time.
