[ official ] 2016 summer moves

Harrison Barnes is posting up CJ McCollum and Damian Lillard this series and throwing up garbage fade-aways. How does that inspire confidence? Not like they haven't needed him with Curry out for most the postseason either.

 

The only positive Barnes has is that he hits timely shots in the clutch. Other that that... Poor man's Caron Butler

 

He's our version of Bruce Bowen...3 and D guy who plays bigger than he is

 

I see Harkless as more of a future Bowen type than Aminu. Aminu is like a smarter version of Josh Smith.

 

I fucking love aminu. I really don't understand why he gets so much hate. Before the season started, Stotts said that he was going to try to have aminu do more things this year than he ever has (ball handling, driving, passing, etc.). So while his turnovers were annoying at the beginning of the season, it was for developmental reasons, and now he really knows what he needs to work on during the offseason. Ball handling, driving, and shooting. (And now defensive schemes)

The same goes for dame, early in the year he was trying a lot of passes that he would've never made in the past, and people were out for his head. But I guarantee all those turnovers benefitted the team in the long run.

 

I disagree. They have so many other large contracts (Curry, Thompson, Green) and they need to re-sign Ezeli this summer as well. They probably let go of Bogut after his contract is up and use Ezeli in the starters role to keep it going.

So.....I predict....they let Barnes go and don't match contract.

 

FIFY

 

I love a guy who steps it up int he playoffs like he does!

 

I wouldn't be against getting Biyombo but I bet Toronto has more Congolese restaurants than we do..

 

Lol that is how I feel about it too but it would not surprise me.

 

He had Brian Roberts on him in the post and couldn't convert. I still can't believe he hit that shot in Game 4 ... Some team is going to have serious buyer's remorse this summer. Let's hope it's not us.

 

Crabbe is going to get paid.

I could see him starting somewhere. Really hope we bring him back though.

 

It won't be. Aminu completely outplayed Barnes this series.

 

Crabbe > Barnes

And that's not bias

 

I would not mind seeing him start for us. If the Blazers decide they want a 3 &D SF, Crabbe with his 6'11 1/4" wing span is long enough IMO. But it really does't make any difference who starts, it's all about who finishes. And Crabbe has shown he is a clutch shooter. He is a keeper.

 

Even if it was not true, i think an argument can be made that he is close enough that there is no need to throw big money at Barnes.

 

New plan! (Trying to be realistic)

Trade Vonleh for Monroe straight across.

Let Hendo, Roberts, and Kaman walk.

Sign Vasquez (3/27).

Have Meyers sign the qualifying offer sheet since he is hurt and idk if teams will offer him anything huge, he needs a breakout season in the worst way to build his value, may as well be in Portland.

Go over the cap for Crabbe and Harkless.

Sign a vet like Matt Barnes maybe for super cheap *ducks head*

Dame / Vasquez
CJ / Crabbe / Montero / Pat
Harkless / Barnes
Aminu / Davis / Alexander
Monroe / Plumlee / Meyers

 

I love dame and CJ but if that's our backcourt we must get a rim protector. Larry Sanders would be amazing but who knows about his situation so besides durant, we should also pursue whiteside and yes, even dwight.
