Phoenix will probably give up Tyson Chandler for pretty much nothing. He's got (a now reasonable) 3yrs, 52 mil contract left. We just need to clear up 13 in room to get him.
Koufus on the block, he signed a 4 yr 33 mi deal last yr with Kings - that seems like a huge bargain now
Definitely disappointed we didn't get Whiteside, but in the end, I don't want players that don't want to be here... Hopefully now we can close the deal with Parsons and pair him with Dwight, Biyombo or Kanter!
I think the blazers knew yesterday that MIA was ready to offer max. No reason to have him on the radar at that point. Also, he was never serious about Dallas, that was all a negotiating ploy.
"mentioned" is an overstatement. Sort of just mumbled it out there as an oh by the way. I have a feeling I am going to be right with my WABC prediction
We're getting Cole Aldrich?????? Or did you mean the white, American born center we already have - Msaon Plumlee? BNM
I actually like this WABC thing that you're pushing haha. Kinda like ass-clown and Pizza guy. It's totally... YOU.
Plumlee is already under contract. Meyers isn't though, and that was my prediction. Aldrich would be great once I figure out a derogatory name for him. I haven't seen enough of him to know why he has been on 5 teams in 6 years
Ass clown was mine, and correct I can't remember who called my source the pizza guy? Maybe Zags? Someone else shortened white American born center.
I feel like he did us a favor there; so Olshey could turn his attention in other directions. In fact, his agent probably let Olshey know long ago.
Does Neil go trade for a big next if Parsons' signs on with us today or does he go after Dwight since him and Chandler are buds? I would lean towards he is going trade next.
There will be no money in the pot if we get Parsons at a max deal to chase another center in free agency. At a push someone like Mahinmi COULD accept a $10M contract but it's very, very unlikely. Biyombo is probably going to go for $18M.
Neil would make money available for the right guy (cutting or renouncing some players) but like I said, I think we go trade for our rim protector next anyways rather than free agency.
