Frivolous rumors nothing more

That's a very interesting idea. My guess is you can not do it, though. Otherwise I think we would have seen philly do it previously.

I think you can, but I'm not sure. Denny?

I'm sure picks could be involved to balance things out. If they gave us their pick in that deal, would you not be interested?

Milwaukee would never do that so it wouldn't matter.
 
If it were Meyers for Frye+Lottery Protected first? Sure. Frye is a good locker room guy, we would still have oodles of cap space this summer to throw around too.
 
Leonard for Monroe makes sense for both teams. The biggest flaw Milwaukee has is lack of spacing as all their forwards and their PG need to be in the paint to be effective. Meyers fits well with them as he can defend in the paint and space the floor on offense. On the flip side what we lack is a consistent 3rd scorer and in particular a guy who can score in the paint. If we had the trio of Lillard/MCollum/Monroe every night we have a much more balanced inside out game. We don't lose a ton on D either.

If we could somehow get MCW as a rotation with CJ and Dame too that could be interesting, but the additional asking price Crabbe?
 
MIL has a lot of players that interest me. How do they not win? Sad that the sum of their parts don't work. I would also take Henson. He is who I think management wanted Leonard to be but it hasn't worked out that way.

Henson just inked a deal. 10+ mil a year

Yes. 11 per I believe. However, and I know this is going to sound crazy, but he is worth it. He doesn't get as many minutes as he should on that team because they have a lot of bigs but his advanced stats are crazy good. Like top 5 defender, blocker, rebounder good. If you think Leonard can get 10-12 MIL a year this summer then what is wrong with Henson's contract?

Not enough outside shooting IMO.

The real question is, where does Henson fit here offensively? We can't play him at the 4 with Plumlee and Aminu with him as frontcourt buddies.

I don't think Stotts is here forever. Eventually we will change the system. But to answer your question I think his better position is Center. Plumlee off the bench or moved down the road but for now Henson off the bench is also fine.

Leonard can hit the three. And Vonleh can too (he did In college).

And you're eating 8 million per year into our cap space next year.

No no no no no no no

Yeah, I can't see us takin on Frye and his contract, he's really not something we need now and especially in the future
 
Bringing in Henson and the ways to make that work (shuffling the roster and rotation significantly/ assuming Stotts will leave/) sure sounds a while lot like trying to reinvent a wheel that isn't broken. Getting Monroe and plugging him in next to plumlee is easier and upsets less of the overall structure and plan for the team.

Monroe and Plumlee are way more alike then Henson and Plumlee. Monroe's best position is also Center. He can play PF but he wouldn't play next to Plumlee in the starting lineup (likely Plumlee would be benched in that scenario)

Monroe is not a good defender like Henson. Plumlee is also below average defender. It would be a nightmare having both those guys start.

Henson could be a good 5 in the mold of Whiteside but if I'm being completely honest, I like what Plumlee brings as our center, he has a unique skill set. I think Vonleh or a big name FA (Horford?) would be a better idea for our frontcourt.

Why would Horford at Super MAX (in the new CAP this summer) be better for us then Henson at 11 MIL? Just curious on that one....

Horford offensively is a really good #3 option that we are looking for. He also isn't a slouch defensively. We need a two way frontcourt man, Horford is the most obtainable near elite big man we can land this summer.

Sounds like a pipe dream but I good with trying it and moving on to option #2 after it doesn't work.

So Parsons or you have someone else in mind? And then when he turns us down? I not trying to sound depressing on purpose but dang they are long shots. Wish they weren't.
Click to expand...
I think Parsons is a real possibility
 
I'd love to have Channing Frye back on the team. I'm not altogether sure how he would be an improvement, maybe as backfill for pieces going out in a different trade?

Any chance Plumlee is a better defender against PF's then he is against bigger centers?

You would think he could be. Although he doesn't move all that well laterally so if they were on the perimeter then I don't think it would work.

Parsons/Barnes/Bazemore

We can land one of those.

Bazemore isn't better than Crabbe imo. Would rather play him some minutes at SF it came down to it. Barnes is a no go at Super MAX for me personally. Iggy at 11 MIL is someone I would rather have then Barnes at 18 MIL plus. Parsons is a get. And someone I would like to get. But a lot of teams will want him. Lets hope something Olshey says sells him.

Horford will be 30 in June, his max will "begin" at 25 mil, no friggin way do I want to pay a 30 yr old Al 25 mil per, no thanks

I like your thinking and you have to think money/value in these crazy contract times. Lillard got 25 mil and CJ may easily get 20 mil plus, you have to have a blend and pick carefully the guys you pay big bucks, a bad mistake can cripple you.

Barnes is a good shooter, can put the ball on the floor, is athletic and is a decent defender. He just needs to be on a team that will allow him more touches. He is a guy that can give you ~17 a night given the chance.
