I think we need to sign and trade him to Brooklyn for Allen, at lease we'll get something back.

Re: Free Agency Thread **NOW OPEN**
How much money do the Clippers even have now after signing Morris?

Re: Free Agency Thread **NOW OPEN**
I don't mind it. Both teams can only offer taxpayer MLE. Marc is likely to go back to Spain for that much. Serge wants to get paid. At worst I see sign and trades. Maybe two. If our centres are Allen and Kabengele that would good for the future at least.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….

Re: Free Agency Thread **NOW OPEN**
It honestly sounds creepy that the Clippers are interested in Ibaka and Gasol..they stalked the Raptors for an entire year. What a bizarre organization.

There is nothing on that roster I want except for Mifondu Kabengele and he's only on a rookie contract. Sorry Serge...if you want the Clippers...you are settling for midlevel exception. I want nothing to do with Lou Williams, Pat Beverley and Ivica Zubac in order for you to make more money.

I have a gut feeling if he doesn't come back here, they're working on a sign and trade to the Nets. Longer it does, the more I suspect that's going to happen. Ibaka would want his money if he went there and needs us to be happy with the return.

Re: Free Agency Thread **NOW OPEN**
Both LAC and BKN are kinda at the whim of their superstars, so the Raps might be able to squeeze extra value in a S&T scenario where a FO is trying to appease said superstars.

Give me Jarrett Allen and Spencer Dinwiddie...totally good with that.

So you move Lou on to a third team and get something back for him OKC style. He has value.

Without Marc he'd be our best passing big easily.
I think we could develop that jump shot and he's mobile enough to not get killed on the pick and roll.
I think that a solid starting point for a 22 yr old to be honest.
Exactly....keen in mind that Giles is the same age as the 2 rookies we just drafted a few days ago!!! take that in!
Harry Giles is very talented, no doubt. I love his skill set and his length. What I don't like is his durability. He hasn't been able to string together a relatively injury-free season...that's my problem with signing him to rely on him being a consistent back up big. The durability issue scares me about him.
Thank you gentlemen.
Yeah, I saw his passing ability on the vids, which I like.
Durability always a concern but I think we have some the best trainers / medical staff in the league.
Has to be able to shoot though, hard to score when the defence is playing 5 on 4. But to take a flyer on try to develop? Why not.

Thanks to Turbo_Zone for the sig.

Re: Free Agency Thread **NOW OPEN**
Unless Serge wants to takes a massive pay cut, (Taxpayer MLE $5.7M) or go to the circus show that is the Knicks.
We have the best offer out there, why is he playing these games?
