Why not, Beanie?




Why not?

It's low risk, high reward.

If we can unload RoLo's contract, see how it goes, if it doesn't work then... :manny: no big deal, we can sign another big in the summer.

Houston is going to want more than Robin Lopez. They're going to at least one of our young backcourt members, plus a pick. So they'll ask for either Galloway or Grant.

Secondly we can't give up another first round pick. We don't have a pick this draft, so we can't give up another first round pick in back to back drafts.

Thirdly we would still have to re-sign him afterwards. Do we really want to give someone who has back issues a max contract at age 31? Also I'm pretty sure Porzingas is Phils long term solution at center. If this was 2-3 years ago, I would be okay with this. But now? No way!

Fourth we better serve using that cap money on backcourt help. Watching Calderon is very sickening. And I'm tired of Affalo playing superhero basketball in the end of fourth quarters. They should try to get Teague, save some money and find a more competent shooting guard. Use Grant and Galloway to develop our bench.

The look on Stan's face when Dwight put his arm around him :dead:. Got the fukk outta there with a quickness. The look on Dwight's face when they tell him that Stan had just told on his ass :russ: All these years later and that shyt is still amazing.

It is one of the most cringeworthy moments in the NBA.

Makes sense...he was going to probably opt out anyway.

Boston?-No need to ruin your future

Toronto?- No, Valuncias is more than sufficient

Portland?- Makes no sense as he doesn't make them better

Atlanta?-Doesn't make them better. Already a re tread

Wizards?-Intriguing, if Gortat can play some PF I would do this trade. Obviously as long as the main 3 stay. Porter/Beal/Wall

Magic....:pachaha: That would be funny as shyt.

I think:
Cleveland (They've proven they're willing to do anything to win it this year. Thompson would probably be part of the deal due to his salary)
Miami (But I think they want to leave cap space to go after KD and re-sign Wade)
Chicago (They've said they've made Gasol, Noah and Gibson available for trade)

are possible destinations for Howard.
