Brooklyn working on buyout of Howard's contract

Recommended Posts

Why did we take on Mosgov's two-year $32.7M contract instead of negotiating a buy-out of Howard's $23.5M one year deal (like the Nets are working on)? Does Mitch plan on Mosgov being a contributor? Is there another deal looming?

I'm assuming we don't plan to be especially competitive next year (although we could still flirt with playoff contention in the East).  Will Mosgov's expiring contract have some value after next year perhaps?

My guess is because it would still cost us 15-16 mil (at a minimum) to buyout Howard, at least with Moz we pay that AND get a player vs paying for nothing. Again, I highly HIGHLY doubt we ever see the second year of Mozgov’s contract. It’ll be an expiring and gain value much like Howard’s did. Always better to have something than it is to have nothing.

    • It didn’t feel like we’re the Bills bc we’re not a consistent conference contender yet we’re a rebuilding team. But with the game on the line we played just like the Bills went straight down the field and scored a tuddy then converted a 2pt conversion I have to give credit where credit is due. And the chiefs played us like we were the Bills in an AFC championship game, drive down the field and kicked a walk off FG to win at the end very similar to me. Are saying our defense stunk yesterday? Vs an elite offense team with elite coaching an elite QB man idk what you want them to do. KC does these things to the best defenses in the league consistently to win AFC chips and Super Bowls let’s not devalue who they are. I saw us play KC to the wire and barely lose defense did its thing as much as it could. Bingo!!! We’re also forgetting how injured we’ve been defensively this year, yes we need to build up the D but adding a few pieces and D Browns successful rehab should make us a very strong unit again. Couple that with the offense we saw yesterday and we’re winning our division.
    • Canales deserves a lot of credit. I'm very pleased. He's definitely making strides with Bryce. I also think some of his lack of commitment to Bryce as the starter is to motivate Bryce. I think he liked what he saw when Bryce was benched.  Even the Defense looks tremendously better with just a couple more pieces getting healthy. Wonnum has made our pass rush viable again.  I would love to see this team with one more good player across the defensive front, DT or an edge rusher.
