He's not a vegetable damnit! He was okay last year but who knows. He is at that age where dudes fall off real quick.

He averaged 6pts, 3rebs on 42% FG, 58% Ft, shot only .9 threes at sub 30% in nearly 26 MPG. His career is over, salmons is better.

I'm going to For Your Eyes Only to watch the draft.

Yeah we still need a backup wing player even with Prince here. He's not an upgrade over Salmons. Like I said before I'm not really seeing Masai's plan here.

I'll allow this. Carry on.

Can people stop talking about expiring contracts like they're this rare and valuable thing already? EVERY single contract in the NBA expires at some point. They WERE useful, maybe 2-6 years ago. It's a totally different CBA landscape now, much shorter contracts, teams have mostly already made adjustments to the tax.

All I meant was he's old and overpaid but thankfully won't be on our books for long.. If he still had 22/3 to go, I'd very much be against this deal.

Really? The plan is to get another of his targets in the draft at 22. That should be pretty obvious.

Prince isn't the answer to our wing situation but he doesn't hurt it either.

The plan is to get an extra 1st rounder. The Prince for Salmons swap is literally trading dog**** for horse****. It's pretty much just for money issues.

His player efficiency rating of 8.2 (league average is 15) ranked 153rd among 154 players who appeared in at least 50 games and averaged at least 25 minutes a game. So no, Prince was not even okay last year.

Replace Prince's Name with a bag of balls + #22 and the trade become clearer

Nice try. You photoshopped the date. I can see that you edited the post because before that there was a GIF of Casey playing bongos as he danced along the sideline and a pair of boobs bouncing.

LOL i was gonna get so mad that it was P.S'd

I kid. Nice call! I love when a prediction actually becomes a legit rumor like that. Quick! Now write that we move both of those picks to Cleveland for Wiggins and they accept!

PER is highly influenced by offense. And Prince isn't an offensive weapon. So naturally he won't have a high PER. He is okay.

Trade the picks asap do not want

SwiftyV · Post #698 » by **SwiftyV** » Thu Jun 26, 2014 9:44 pm

I guess I should ask this in case we get him. Will Capela come over immediately or does he have to stay?

Danchan · Post #699 » by **Danchan** » Thu Jun 26, 2014 9:45 pm

please dont consider this as an anti-joe johnson move.
you shouldn't need to trade/draft in order to counter a aging brooklyn anyways.

If MU do this its because he wants an extra pick. Taking back Prince's salary is not a bonus, but a detriment to the cap flexibility going into next year.

Post #700 » by **DG88** » Thu Jun 26, 2014 9:49 pm

So pretty much Memphis is picking for us for doing them a favour to help them with re-signing Zach Randolph. I still say this is happening and getting Capela and Ennis would be awesome.
