FA Targets High IQ only

[jwise44]

I dunno. Capela could be like biyombo for a lot less $$$. It's really too bad jbb benched him in the playoffs. He really could have used that experience.

Would you rather have a c/pf rotation of motie/Capela/Harrell AND biyombo? Or just the first 3? (Assuming we don't get horford or whiteside)

(Conley or Lin)/bev/let terry retire and find someone else
Harden/kj
Ariza/supercoolbeas/dekker
D-mo/Harrell
Biyombo/Capela (knowing we won't get whiteside or horford)

Oh and the trade that lands us Zhou qi!

[K_chile22]

I feel like Biyombo is going to be too expensive.
But Alessandro Gentile might be coming over. His dad has strong ties to D'Antoni from their playing days in Italy and he said yesterday he might have played his last game for Olimpia Milano. He's a decent ball handler and shooter, but a good scorer. Not sure his athleticism will allow him to be a decent NBA defender thouhh

I think we definitely need center help just dunno how much we should spend for it.

Ian mahinmi is also available. I like Festus too.

[jwise44]

Festus looks terrible and is never healthy. Ian is good if he's super cheap but he is old as hell

I really would rather overpay bb than ending up with them

Capela is every bit as good as Festus if not better. He's also pretty close if not as good as Mahimi. He was the second best backup center after Biyombo iimo. Look at his on off numbers and per 36 numbers. He's already good and he's already added nearly ten pounds since the season ended

Festus always plays well against the Rockets.
Ian is only 29, not that old. Younger than Horford, Noah, Jefferson, Dwight

The Warriors trust ANDERSON VAREJAO more than Festus in the finals. That's a huge red flag. Don't want to be the team giving him a big contract

Noah is probably headed to Minny so that is off the table.One guy maybe we could look at is mozgov. Mozgov played under D'Antoni in NY and actually played well. I think he would thrive off the pick and roll with Harden plus he is a huge body in the paint.

How well did that work for the Warriors in Game 5???

Ezeli has played 35 minutes in the finals vs Varejao's 26. Considering Anderson played for the Cavs this season, I think it's a unique situation where Kerr is trying to get some kind of advantage by playing him vs his former team.

Anderson's totals: 5 finals games, 6 points, 6 rebounds, 0 blocks, 0 for 3 from the field
Festus' totals: 6 finals games, 10 points, 8 rebounds, 1 block, 4 for 11 from the field

Ezeli had way more playing time vs HOU, POR and OKC than Varejao did and came up huge vs the Blazers and Thunder

Damn, I don't know why but I thought Ian was like 35? Well I'm more than happy with Ian if he's 29 then

Still prefer bb

Came up huge is a bit of a hyperbole. There's no way Varejao should get anywhere near the minutes he's getting. He's been terrible. Kerr sees something that leads him to not want to play him. Clint Capela is better than him, younger than him, and cheaper than him, if you want another starter because you don't think Clint is ready Festus is not that guy

Maybe warriors aren't playing Festus because they don't want his asking price as a free agent to skyrocket and potentially lose him. By all accounts I've read the warriors really want to keep him. I like Clint and would be open to him starting but I think all thirty gms would take ezeli over capela every time.

[MaxRider]

personally i think Kerr go with Varejao in the final is because he match up better with Trista Thompson
Ezeli isn't as fast

[rockets22]

Sideshow bob is playing because of rebounding to offset Tristan Thomas.

If this 900 year old washed version of Andy V is faster or better at rebounding than a 26 year old center I don't think you should be lining up to pay that center.

Y'all watching Ezelie right now? Looking terrible as he has 80% of this post season

Yea no to Bismack and festus. Bismack is going to be the worst free agent signing this offseason and no reason to add that to the worst coaching hire.

Thaddeus young is up for the market, get rid of TJ. Hassan Whiteside and a better PG would make a great difference for our team.
I would also love if we did trade for PJ tucker or dudley.

Whiteside / Capela
Young / Capela / Beasley
Ariza / Dudley / Beasley
Harden / Dudley / Beasley
PG / Beverley
