Hornets Now Players For Deng

That's true but the Cavs were a mess and had no leader. I think that Waiters on a rookie contract still is less risky than Lance at a 50m contract

I think we may be able to nab Stephenson with a shorter term but higher salary contract. Like 3 years 33-36 million.

I didnt say anything about chemistry.. someone else might have..

 

I think with a player like Lance- you let him be Lance.. take the good with the bad. Like the Pistons/Bulls did with Rodman. Let him be goofy and always have his back. To be honest- i'd be more worried about PJ than I am about Lance's problems if we sign him.

 

As far as Waiters, I'm not to concerned about his "issues" either. He and Kyrie butted heads, but that happens from time to time on losing teams (ie. Tyrus and Silas shoving match). He has shown grit and the ability to GO OFF and score buckets at times. He has that "MJ, Kobe- killer instinct" in his eyes. I like his game. both Waiters and Lance have it

If that were the offer I would jump on it chemistry issues aside. Shorter deals are less risky and that would be an ideal length IMO

I mentioned the possible chemistry issues. Many of his buckets were all 1on1. But let's be honest he's a lot better then Hendo so I'd get over it real quickly!

I just want Lance Stephenson in my life

 

 

Is it that hard?

[Captain Morgan]

Not really interested in Deng. I'd prefer Lance like a lot of you would if we HAVE to spend the money, but I am concerned about the chemistry issue. Deng wouldn't be a bad 2 yr contract rental to help be a good mentor for a player like PJ. 

 

Unfortunately in this offseason we lost out on the two guys I really wanted, Livingston & Hayward. 

 

So now my secondary FA wishlist is basically not spending our cap space.

PG: DJ or Hinrich

SF,PF: Marvin Williams (I'm not a UNC fan, but think he would be a good complementary piece) 

 

- I'd also explore the trade front with the Cavs for Waiters. 

 

 

I'd much rather have Ramon than DJ, and I think he's still available

Oh boy, Jordan really is going after those "superstars" like he said.

And it isn't a bad deal for Stephenson, it gives him a chance to prove his worth and if he does in 3 years he gets the mega contract.

Lance or Deng!!!!!!!

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

I don't see Deng being a guy that you build your team around.

I see Deng as a guy that you add when you are one piece away from being a legit contender (i.e. Dallas/Houston/Portland).

[ThinkAboutIt]

Don't know why anyone would want Deng when he's demanding even more money than a younger and potentially more dynamic Stephenson.

Where is the Waiters talk coming from?
