Lopez would be fine. Nothing to cheer about but he should be pretty solid for what we need. I still think we should just sign O'Quinn and be done with it beyond dangling some obvious people. Seeing what Ajinca got, I'm thinking KOQ would be extremely affordable with solid upside.

Signing Shumpert would be **** weird, I absolutely do not see where he would get minutes.

He brought in guys he was familiar with on 10-day contracts when the Bucks were desperate for bodies. Thats it. Nothing to see here. If we make a ridiculous, future mortgaging signing a la Kohl, who happens to be a Schwartz client, I'll gladly change my tune. Until then, its a non story.


Off the top:

- Our draft pick this year.
- MCW instead of a possible top 10 pick.
- Jerryd Bayless
etc.

Ennis is at the same company.

That's a lot of an investment than a few guys on 10-day contracts.

So glad we missed out on Brook and Chandler, now we just need to avoid Monroe.

Time to take advantage of Golden state in panic mode and partially absorb Bogut. Wouldn't mind Lee for a year either with some incentive attached

I'd much rather sign Monroe than trade for Hibbert

Wonder if we strike out on a fee agent big man, will we try to trade for Favors or one of OKCs many centers.

No, we wouldn't want to sign impactful players who would win us more games and increase the chances this team stays in Milwaukee so these conversations are even relevant. More important to protect that #18 pick, so we can get a surer fire rotation player who can help us in 2019 when this club may be in another city. I don't get this attitude at all from some fans. Old habits die hard I guess. Circumstances have changed. Flow with them.

I see us more involved with Golden State as the 3rd team that lands Lee in Indiana and Hibbert in Milwaukee.

Wright to grizz. 3 years 18 mil. Seems reasonable wish the bucks would have got in on that.

seems like we're going to strike out on all the FA centers

either trade or roll with what we have, I don't want to give up any real value tho

sure would of been simpler with Portis...

How are GS in panic mode exactly ? They're maxing out Green either way. They don't really have much incentives either.

Wright went for 3/18, Ajinca went for 4/24. That is pretty good news if we're looking to add Koufos or KOQ. I could be easily convinced to either love or hate the idea of signing Monroe. It's an intriguing opportunity to say the least. He'd be the biggest FA to sign here in who knows how long.

Because you really wanted Chandler or Brook Lopez? Otherwise, I don't think anything has really changed other than the fact that we've had to wait half a day.

So what is the trade we could work out with Indy?

Vasquez, Mayo?

Wouldn't you say we pretty much already have him on our roster ? John Henson.

I just hope Hammond is being aggressive in trade talks to find the right big. Not a guy who's phone game I trust.
