i have the realgm app but i cant sign in to my account. so i can only read threads with it. had the same problem with tapatalk. always says i have reached maximum number of log in attempts and wants me to solve captcha puzzle, which never loads. all a result of me changing my password and it not automatically logging me out of the apps. deleting and reinstalling didnt help. that being said, i have no problems reading threads.

Ben Gordon can serve as a more than capable starter next season. No reason to overpay Hendo and he obviously isn't liking the kind of numbers we are talking about. Really hard to have him and MKG on the same floor when I think they do a lot of the same things or will once MKG settles in a little more.

i have a feeling that taylor would be the guy getting the starts, not gordon. been hearing a lot of good things about taylor recently. clifford spoke very highly of him today in an interview i heard.

Ha Taylor? Yeah he should start if he doesn't air ball 3 pointers every other game. Atrocious shooter last year.

I too would rather see Taylor start than Gordon. At least Taylor can dribble without hitting his feet. Gordon shouldn't start on a D-league team let alone a NBA one. Would be a great tank move though.

I'm not in love with Hendo but I think I'd much rather have him back over any of the available FAs right now.

@WojYahooNBA After reaching an impasse with RFA Gerald Henderson, Charlotte's exploring sign-and-trade possibilities with multiple teams, sources tell Y!.

So I guess we're sticking with Gordon or Taylor.

WTFFFFFFFFFF! Is Hendo asking for too much money? Why can't we keep him?

Glad we might be getting at least some asset for him.

just noticed in today's team site practice vids that clifford was talking up jeff taylor a good deal. somehow i doubt that is a coincidence.

vorbis · Post #732 » by **vorbis** » Thu Jul 11, 2013 4:30 am

god help me, i looked at eric gordon's contract information. if the bobcats were to trade for him, he'd basically be on the same contract as al jefferson. 2 more years, with a 3rd year player option, $14.5M/yr.

I seriously doubt that any other team is willing to pay Henderson what he may want (I'm guessing in excess of $8 million), so this may just be a scare tactic from Cho & Co.

Personally, as much as I would like for Charlotte to retain Henderson after he somewhat grew on me as a doubter of his in previous years, I don't think it's a bad idea to do a sign & trade with him to obtain depth in needed positions or a future draft pick(s)

Eoghan · Post #734 » by **Eoghan** » Thu Jul 11, 2013 4:35 am

Be funny if nobody wants him and he just takes the QO and becomes UFA next year. If we couldn't deal him for a 1st rd pick in this weak draft, we're probably not going to get much for him.

Hopefully this is just a reminder for Hendo to put pen to paper.

That said if we can get something like a scrub (expiring) backup 3 and a late first instead of taking on a 7m contract I would do it.

I like the idea of starting Taylor if Hendo walks.

That's what is likely and Cho know it. That's why they are playing hardball. If Hendo want to be a part of our future he'll have to swallow his pride and take that $6 million per deal. I want Hendo back but it's going to be hard to distribute minutes if we do retain him. I think BG will return to his 6th man of the year form in a contract year under a competent coach like Clifford. We would probably make off well trading Hendo for a big or some draft picks even if it's just 2nd rounders for more cap space. I wonder if the Spurs are willing to do a sign and trade with us for DeJuan Blair and Patty Mills.

most of us agreed that we didn't want to overpay for Hendo.

I'm glad they're not willing to do that.

If this is Monta Ellis-related I'm losing all faith in this organization.

For sure. Would be sad if we trade him for scrubs or lose him as an UFA just like so many of our draft picks but c'est la vie.

Edit: I think Nate Robinson is still available.
