Koufas/Biyombo 

Post#1 » by BlueBalls » Sat Jul 4, 2015 5:42 pm

So with the addition of CJ, I'd guess we add one of these 2 and call it an off-season?

That would make for a team that's not playoff-bound yet but well on its way. One more good lottery pick would be perfect.

The Clippers will surely go very hard at both of them. I'm happy with grabbing either for depth and calling it an offseason.

for all the high contracts given out, that has to show people how many holes Biyombo has in his game to only get that.

Yeah, but I'd have been happy to get him for that.
Oh well. Koufax?

I'd like Koufos. He's probably better than people give him credit for, but that's what you get for being on a roster with Marc Gasol and ZBo and playing backup minutes. He's a decent rebounder at both ends, solid shot blocker, overall a pretty good defender. Per 36 he put up 12 and 11.5 with almost 2 blocks and a steal over the last 4 seasons.

Koufax is going to get overpaid by some other team. He ain't comin to the Magic in any case. Magic has Deadman and Frye who both are capable backups.

I've read somewhere before FA started, that there are more buzz about Biyombo on the internet and twitter than in NBA front offices.He might be useful but he definitely has some holes and issues since Hornets dropped the ball on him, even if it meant making fans furious.

$6M for two years for BB? Wow, that is a nice team deal. I would have been happy with $10M over two.

Koufos is off the Sacramento for 4 years, $33M.

that is a very good salary for him. Kings making sensible moves.... Did Karl regain control?

Huh. I was thinking 33 mil was way too much for Kosta.

I like Koufos, but the Kings had to overpay to get him. No one wants to go to Sacramento if the money is close to being equal.

Koufas/Biyombo

At this point are there any more big guys in free agency worth pursuing? I'd hate to have another year of Channing Frye and Andrew Nicholson at PF. Anyone to take Nicholsons spot on this roster I'm in favor of.

He'll get paid $7m his first year with 4.5% raises.
