I guess this is our back-up plan if Tobi tells us he's leaving??
If we bring in Horford and re-sign Jimmy, our defense becomes ridiculously elite; especially with more of Zhaire at the 2. Our spacing becomes even worse though

To have a offer on the table already sounds like 1 or both of Tobias/Jimmy are out the door does it not?

Do people think that team could be championship calibre?
Obviously we'd only go that route if Harris leaves and if FO believes that Simmons will never get a jump shot.
I'm asking since Woj is now saying that the Nets might pivot away from Kyrie since the Kyrie+KD combo is looking less likely.

What's Simmons have to do with it? It would require moving our first round pick and Bolden, but you can get to a second MAX slot without doing anything with Ben.

He had a good year last year and could slot in as our SG of the future once Redick is finished. For now he could be our 6th man. He's not as good of a 3 point shooter but a better overall scorer and a much better defender than JJ.

He's a sensible target. You can never have enough competent wings.

So apparently you missed playoffs where Butler was HUGE for us..Aussiepiston1 wrote:Negrodamus wrote:
I saw Harris in Bali 2 weeks ago and spoke to a girl who was sitting with him and his girlfriend and she said he was a real cool guy hahaha but didn't give her any info about staying or leaving LOL
I think keeping Harris trading Butler for Gordon and draft picks plus getting Horford would be a better fit for us.
4 year 100mil for Horford wouldn't be bad, look at what Marc Gasol is making at the same age contract finishing same time also and I'm sure Toronto is happy paying it.
