Jerebko is 6'10, instead of keeping Maxiell as backup C/PF, he's expiring.
DET just lost KCPoop for a while and don't need Jerebko.

Hendo 6m@2yrs for Brandan Bass 6.9@1yr
Hendo to play for his father's team, aww. Bass, backup C/PF, expiring.

Hendo 6m@2yrs for Jason Thompson 6m@3yrs
Same idea, ditch a wing for another big (we need), though SAC prob doesn't do this deal,
they have way too many PFs and get one less year from Hendo's contract.

Hendo 6m@2yrs to POR for Dorrell Wright 3.1@1yr + Meyers Leonard 2.3@2yrs
The catch here would be Leonard, who might be a meyer lemon, but might be worth the shot

Hendo to MIL for Zaz Pachulia 5.2@2yr
That would be pretty mean to Hendo

Hendo to IND for Ian Mahinmi 4m@2yr + Solomon Hill 1.3@3yrs
actually, not sure why IND would do this

I'd take the Jason Thompson trade but it's far from likely on our end because it would make Cho's ovepay signing of Messy Marv for 2 years look for nothing. We could've signed better PFs but the excuse was that they wanted 3 years and Cho has a masterplan for 2016 free agency.

Clifford: The thing with @GhJr09 is that when he's on the court I just have a comfort level that we do the right things


clifford also said he plans to play hendo in the last preseason game

Hendo embraces a lot of the things that Clifford preached when he got here - disciplined defense, sharing the ball on offense, consistent effort.

I am so torn on Hendo. I think he has all the potential to be an impact player if he can bust through some of his limitations on offense - if he could fix his unwillingness to shoot threes and to settle for long 2's and his difficulty creating off the dribble then his game would take a huge step forward.

That's a lot of "if"s :lol:

Henderson has yet to show me that he could be a net positive player for the various reasons you mentioned, and now that he's likely to come off the bench this season I want to see if he could at least be a valuable 2nd unit player. This will be his last straw for me on whether I'd even consider him a solid player or just a fringe player

I know, and he's turning 27 in December so it's not like we should expect a lot of organic development in terms of new skill sets at this point in his career. I'm just hopeful that being bumped to the bench plus seeing how Lance is able to create for others will help light a fire under Hendo that will translate into greater productivity.

We did hear rumors about a shot makeover with Price, it'll be interesting to see if that translates into higher %'s and better shot selection.

I think this guy could end up being as important as any player on the roster and its flying right underneath our eyes. He would solidify our second unit greatly, especially on the defensive end. I will feel a lot better about our team when he gets healthy.

If you erect it, they will come.

Hendo needs a love dome

If you erect it, they will come.

(or you will be rollin' solo which is ok sometimes).

Lol Ill probably be riding solo when it comes to Henderson. Thats fine though. I think hes going to be a difference maker for our bench.

I think the rookie Hairston will prove to be a better net positive reserve player than Henderson this upcoming season. That's just my prediction. Please remember to rub it in and make me eat crow if I'm completely wrong about this
