Yeah and I'm sure the Hornets are interested in KD, it doesn't mean anything, this is just baseless speculation. Based on what I've heard from Batum, it would really surprise me if we don't resign him. We gave him the role last year that he's been wanting his whole career, he wouldn't get that anywhere else (unless he went to a bad team).

Oh and the posts on the first page saying "Cho needs to go" are, again, absolutely hilarious.

LBJ taking such a huge pay cut

When did this happen? Are you talking about taking $15M less over a $100M+ 6 year deal? 

And you're using an old Duncan who has only been with one team his whole career as an example? 

And both of them were "the man" on their teams, so...doesn't really work.

Cho isn't dumb in FA? Dude is dumb in everything other than making trades. And, then making dumb picks. 

I know you aren't a Cho fan, but he's got a plan that will shape if this FA works out.  

Jordan has the brand advantage but not the executive skills, and I think he oversteps Cho a lot.  We pay big this year or else what?

Who do you have in mind to supplant Cho?

And the messed up thing is Parsons will get max money from some team.

There just is not enough good players to go around in this league and with super star players teaming up it makes it even worse. 

Now with the salary cap going up you have to make the threshold so all these undeserving players are going to be tacking on at least 5 million more per season over  worth. 

Thats why when we landed a guy like Belinelli im not freaking out because his 6 million deal would be 11 million going forward if we were to sign him in free agency.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.

      TMac is good, but he isn't pick 1 on a WR good.  Last year he would be below Nabers and Williams.  This year you could argue Hunter is the better WR.  WR at 1 better be a Calvin Johnson not a WR that disappears some games in college...

      So because he's a projected top 5 pick he's should be the guy we draft.   Yet you say the other 2 QBs who are projected top 5 picks are not worth it because you think they aren't that good.   That's my problem with you. You just seem to only care about Tmac. I have yet to see you suggest anyone outside of Tmac. At least I'm open to other prospects.
