The argument we need a low post scoring C when all 4 of our young guys plays in the post is stupid. Average NBA player, max contract, terrible fit. **** sucks when Hammonds has money to spend.


There really isn't a single player on our roster that you can consistently run offense through on the post. All 4 of our young guys can occasionally exploit mismatches down low but they are far from "post players". Our best low post scorer right now is probably Henson and he has all of one move...

If I wanted to use the post extensively I'd use whichever of the core three has the best mismatch not that I'd use the post heavily as it's not a great option these days, particularly when you're using a guy who's as underwhelming as Monroe.

Is there any doubt that RoLo isn't getting the max?

Could you replace him with David Lee and be equally as good? More likely than not.

Sometimes you really exaggerate don't you? You used to say the same thing about Bayless and Knight. Not that I don't agree Monroe isn't worth the pay day he is set to get but he would improve our team no doubt. David Lee would be a back up 4 while Monroe would start at center. Monroe may put up some empty stats but he would help us this year no doubt. But for the max his help isn't worth it.

Lee's posted 20/10ish seasons on two different teams at center in two different conferences, as soon as last season :dontknow: . Two years ago he's an all-star at center.

I like the move for Philly but have to think if stauskas could actually play he's not in a salary dump after 1 year. This is really more of an reminder how badly run Sacramento is as opposed to how well Hinkie is doing.

His plan might work but I hope it doesn't. I don't want 10 gms coping the lose at all cost plan.

It's like the sixers have this magic the gathering deck that they're convinced is going to work if they stick with it enough or just get enough mana or whatever.

Kings gonna derp.


Why? I think that's a small price to pay to unload those contracts, if that's about the extent of it. Stauskas can't get separation offensively and avoid it defensively. Maybe a 3+no d in the league like Kapono. It wouldn't bother me to lose that. I kind of think 6ers gonna derp more in this case, and almost as much in general.

I've been watching this board and the tweets all day. I think this is the easily the best. Good lord those contracts that are being signed.

Every time I see the board crap out I wonder if the Raptors signed Nando De Colo.

Really did not know that I apologize. But still think Monroe would have more of a impact here than Lee. But again don't want to give him the max and would rather trade for a year of Hibbert to see what we can get. I guess with Monroe he doesn't want a four year deal and will probably always be movable. Well with Hibbert he may just implode or leave after the year for nothing. Than we will have wasted the last season before the cap explodes and everybody will have cap space.
Bucks fandom bringing me happiness still seems like a dream.
