[ official ] 2016 summer moves

Barnes didn't show me much when Curry went down. I think some team is going to overpay and have some serious buyer's remorse.

 

Interesting. When I watch him I don't see any of those attributes (aside from being athletic). Makes you wonder if he's just saying good things about him because he's his son's friend, or if he truly, objectively feels that way.
I think half (or more) of the players in the league could easily average 18 points a game - but would their team win games?

 

I agree HFB might break out on another team. But GS needs him coming off their bench so they would be wise to retain him if they can afford it.

 

I think you're right about that. NBA players are good, I don't care who they are. Feature just about any wing player in an offense and they can get numbers.

 

Tough to tell with Mychal. He has been wrong before. The thing is the topic was who the Lakers should go after. And with Mychal
being the radio voice of the Lakers, you think he would be careful. I agree with what you are saying about Barnes, but at the same time he does get at least a little inside info on him.
I guess we will know if GS matches a big offer.

 

Maybe he's sowing seeds of discontent that HFB should be a starter in this league so his beloved Lakers can grab him.

 

I'm confused - I thought HB is a starter?

 

I thought so too?
Like on a championship team?

 

No, it appears I'm confused. LOL HFB is so far in the background on that team, I just think of him that way. What will he want more: Another ring, or a bigger role on another team? Hard to say. Probably the ring, and less pressure.

 

Who is this halfback that we're talking about and which NFL team does he play for?

 

Barnes is "fools gold" IMO assuming he gets maxed or close to it by some idiotic GM. He's an OK player but is not going to get close to living up to the contract he probably gets, I'm very happy with Aminu and Hark for 8-10 mil if thats what he gets.

 

If the money was equal.......who would you prefer? Aminu, Harkless, Crabbe or Barnes....as our starting SF?

 

Barnes and Aminu are tossups stats wise IMO, given that Aminu steps it up in the playoffs I might prefer him, and with 3 yrs lef7 at 7.5 mil its a fuckkin no brainer who I'd prefer. Hark ultimately could be the best of the bunch but he's got a ways to go, Crabbe is on the bottom of the list for me

 

Pretty much my take.

 

I wish we had a spreadsheet to keep track of all the things that are "fools gold" around here.

 

Create one and make it a sticky and se how long it gets.

 

I think Aminu is better suited at the 4. But his versatility to play both comes in handy.

Harkless might end up being the best option at SF, but right now both Barnes and Crabbe are more reliable shooters IMO. Crabbe actually has a longer standing reach than Barnes (Same wing span) which really surprised me. But Barnes does have a great vertical.

I think overall Barnes is probably the best of the 4, but not by much over Crabbe.

 

I think HFB, if he has the drive, would thrive on the Blazers. With his playoff experience, and I think he shows signs of putting it together in these playoffs, he would be number 1, with Aminu a close second, if the question is who could contribute today. Harkless may be the best of the bunch in two or three years. Crabbe is a nice player, but last on my list.

 

Thrive or not at best if he's "slightly" better than Aminu IMO an upgrade at C is more important, especially if we're spending the type of money a Barnes Max would command

 

Mark Cuban will throw the bank at Howard and he likes older vets...even injury prone ones. I don't see us paying him what the Heat or Mavs would. Bosh is probably done in Miami and Riley can sell hot peppers in hell
