-He's good Mitch insurance

I like the signing in a vacuum because he has the makings of a long term starting center, but signing him with Mitch would be committing over 20 million (based on assumed prices) to centers and obviously would block Sims playing time this year.. At least Hartenstein is young as well
Wait... how much are you expecting him to get in this market?
I've been against giving up a decent amount of cap space to the 5 spot if you're just a rim runner with no offensive skills (Mitch and Noel). I can get behind Isiah as a backup and might start to show some perimeter skills.
Well the most the Clippers can give him is 6 million so if he is looking elsewhere it likely means he is looking more at MLE money which is around 9.5 million.
Difference between Hartenstein and Noel/Mitch is that Hartenstein can pass and dribble the ball a little bit. He's shown some flashes of being able to shoot some as well. However, the other 2 are a lot more athletic than him which raises their ceiling on defense higher than Hartenstein.
Yeah I'm with you on the Hartenstein monster. He's a serious low key C option that could pay huge dividends.
