I mean seriously, what would Charlotte have to send us for Conley?

Pros :
we avoid the luxury
we pick up whatever asset Charlotte sends
we can use the BAE since we would be that far under the luxury

Cons:
we lose Conley

 

[LoPo]

I’m more worried about what happens to you when he signs his extension... tongue in cheek of course.

What’s the status of Whiteside?

I love Charlotte too. Okay now does anyone want Batums deal with no matching salary coming back... crickets... tumbleweeds... then off in the distance Sam Presti is sighted with a reaper outfit... I will take him... but it will cost you... your SOUL! Or maybe a first rounder would work.

Single but looking

I think he still sucks.

Lopo, if it should come to it, is it too early to come up with some possible trade scenarios for Rudy? Too early for a thread about it?

They have to clear his salary though... so they are looking for no money or less money coming back. Basically OKC can help them with one of their big *** trade exceptions or they are screwed.

I actually hope this blows up in their face, maybe Charlotte finds something else in the meantime (would be cool if AD signed there), and then Hayward is SOL and has to take that Cleveland MLE.

it already kind of has. If you were thinking up worst/best case scenarios for Hayward’s stay in Boston it doesn’t get much better than how it played out.

Hayward will either not live up to his contract or have an Orlandoesque run at the 8 seed. Maybe he demands a trade and then three teams fan bases end up seeing him as a disappointment... his jersey will hang in zero nba rafters and his business will end unfinished.

Really, the no brainer trade, should we need to do it due to Rudy's extension, is to trade Rudy for John Collins. It's a current All Star for a probable future All Star. Just an added bonus that Collins and Don are such good friends.

If we would get Collins, I don't want Capella too (mainly because of contract). I'd look at Rudy for Collins, Huerter, and expirings.

Also the Hayward saga will likely now last until Thanksgiving... that is what I am hoping for... Bill Simmons taking a bite of his vegan tofu turkey then getting the alert that there is no sign and trade and then having to go in the other room and listen to Pearl Jam on his Sonos home speakers.

Lol. Duh. My bad.
