Cap space-who does Neil want?

Call me crazy, but I think Neil wants Gerald Henderson and Noah Vonleh.

 

I think Henderson will be great at the 2. Perfect off guard for Dame, slasher, can shoot and plays hard as hell on D (from what I've seen).

 

Apparently Hornets fans think he has terrible BBIQ.

He's got HOPS though, major HOPS. I think if he's coming off the bench, he's a solid rotation player. He's not a good shooter but the Blazers have been missing a slasher type player for awhile now. I say this pre-emptively but - better Will Barton perhaps?

If the Blazers are fielding a playoff contending roster next year I think Henderson is a good sleeper candidate to have a nice season.

It sucks losing Batum but I'm honestly more sad for sentimental reasons. Blake is now the only remaining player from the 08-09 season and if Aldridge doesn't re-up, it's going to stay that way. Ahhh, goodbye memories.

 

I don't think there is any question that he is still raw. A big at 19.......it may take another another 3 years. Remember Shawn Kemp at that age?

 

I was talking about Hendo, haha.

I don't know much about Vonleh. He looks like a nice prospect, good work ethic, etc etc. Hopefully he's going to be our Jermaine O'Neal.

 

Oh Shit sorry. I saw terrible BBIQ and assumed...............I never associate low BBIQ with Duke players. They don't always make it in the NBA but seldom is that an issue.

 

Paul George?

 

Henderson went to Duke, not a whole lot of idiots came out of Duke. He plays like a poor mans Drexler.

 

Sure, why not? Henderson is insurance in case Wes leaves or stays but doesn't recover well. Vonleh is slightly smaller Leonard, a big PF who has range out to three point land and defends better than average. And since he's black, MM can like him!

 

Kristaps Porzingis.

 

And with the same wing span. Both at 7'4"

 

We traded our Spanish-hating French player, so it's obvious we're going after Gasol......

 

Maybe the 76ers like Vonleh more than anyone they could get at 3. We flip them Vonleh and draft russell or porz. Remember Vonleh is still only 19.

 

We'd have to give a little more and if Charlotte could've done that they wouldve. I think itd take at least 3 of CJ, Meyers, Vonleh, 23, and 2018 1st round pick. I'd be willing to give up CJ for Russell because we could bring Henderson off the bench and because I think Russell is a better fit next to Dame, at least as good as CJ is now, and he's 19 with all star potential. Plus the money saved from Wes we could use to get a good starting center

 

I wish that was true, but they could really use Russel as well. Almost every team can.

 

No to Hibbert no to gay there are no such things a quick fixes not unless Lebrons your GM. Give Dame the max and the key to the city develop CJ and vonleh pummlee and Myers. Don't trade for players that are on the decline. Better to develop young talent

 

YES SIR!
