So if you guys had to guess, what happens with Lopez?

okcjim · Post #1 » by **okcjim** » Thu Feb 12, 2015 8:42 pm

Where does he end up and if he's gone what will the Nets get back?

Lopez stays with BKN, BKN fails to reach playoffs(not entirely Brook's fault)

This board's hope and dream? He is moved for a SG and a PF.

Plain and simple, he's an addition by subtraction and if we can get a solid back up PF and a true starting SG... things will be a LOT better

I'd say its either:

1) Stays a net (65%)
2) Goes to denver for some combo of hickson/mcgee/pick (15%)
3) Goes to Miami for some combo of Deng/Anderson(5%)
4) Goes to Charlotte for some combo of lance/marvin (5%)
5) Goes to OKC for Perkins and Lamb(5%)

Basically i think he stays, because king 100% doesnt want to trade him and 100% doesnt want lance (the best option). So he either stays or King gets us the PF we need in hickson with a pick and takes on mcgee

Yup, this is exactly how i feel.

get the hornets back on the phone... if king doesnt want lance fine... do it for Gerald/Marvin/Roberts

He stays here, plays like a pussy for awhile, probably injures his foot again.

He's the most likely out of him, Deron, and Joe to get traded.

What most of us want is either a deal with you guys for Lamb, Perkins, and maybe PJ3, or a deal with CHA for Lance and Zeller.

For his sake I hope he is moved. Hopefully another situation is best for him. He has toiled in this dump for long enough.

With Adams out for a few weeks I don't think we'll entertain the notion of trading Perkins now. The team is playing well and back in the hunt, so I doubt Presti takes the chance with chemistry and an unknown. If it was me making the decision it would be tough but I think I'd stand pat.

The Thunder would still trade Perkins (and others) for Lopez because Lopez is an upgrade. Whether or not Adams is healthy or not does not change this fact.

I think he's getting moved sadly, he seems to be the only one out of the big 3 multiple teams are interested in. I wish we would just move Johnson though.

it doesnt work without perkins, no other way for OKC to match salary.

i agree presti wont do it though, expiring + lamb/pj3 is a pretty big overpay for lopez

Johnson helps the team and isnt injury prone.

lopez doesnt and is a big injury risk

makes more sense to move brook

This isn't NBA2k.

best guess is he is moved in a deal that hasnt been mentioned yet. I could see the Suns/Pelicans/Lakers try and jump in the fray at the last minute

Hopefully it's Deron that gets moved and not Lopez even though he's soft as cottonelle.

KMartsCrew · Post #17 » by **KMartsCrew** » Fri Feb 13, 2015 8:51 pm

He's the last guy on this team we should be looking to move.

all of the smedium 3 need to be traded. Lopez not as much as Joe, and definitely not as much as Deron, but it's been 7 years its time to move in a different direction

Right why would we want to trade an overpaid bench player who could get injured again any second, is no part of this teams future, and whom we have been significantly better without this and last season record wise whom our coach doesnt seem to have much respect for.

yeah wouldnt want to move him

There is no such thing as a "last guy" among our three overpaid losers. Brook doesn't play hard and his foot is a time bomb ready to go off. Stop homering.
