Hendo Gone?

[chknwing]

its possible charlotte did not want to give him anything long term as they may have 3 draft picks in the up coming draft, they will most likely will draft a shooting guard.  I think charlotte sees Hendo as a 6th man, hendo doesnt.  Their not gonna pay him over $8 million to be a 6th man.

[MadHatter]

Yeah, and I'm assuming that is the problem. I was under the impression that he was likely to give us a discount as well because he said he wanted to be here but, money talks. I just wonder what he's looking for b/c I don't see how we could've lowballed him? Most teams overpay to keep their guys.

Either that or we purposely DID lowball him because someone in the FO has a boner for Monta Ellis.

 

A guy may give a team a discount because they have a real chance to win a championship.

 

Anyone who thinks that he was going to give us a discount is nuts.

I think there will be a lot of I interest in Hendo and I don't think we should have to include additional assets to move him unless it is for a very high quality SG

[bLACKpANTHER]

if Hendo is looking for something in 7.5-8.5 give him 8

 

 

PAY THE MAN- he has earned it

[teeray]

My guess is the sticking point isn't the amount it is the length of the contract. Just a guess though.

Next years draft has too many shooters to pay big money to GH. Let him go get his money while we continue to build our contender. Thank for the patience Hendo but its time to go.

[Carl Spackler]

IIRC we've never resigned a draft pick once their rookie deal expired. Pa-thetic.

Who are the shooters you're talking about??

 

 

Wiggins,Randle Parker, and Gordon are all SF or tweener candidates. Who are these SG's coming out next year that's got you excited?

we resigned Emeka for one of the worst contracts in the league.. that is all

[4Corners]

he wants too much $$$. Okay with him leaving as long as we get something in return.

What about Marcus Smart?

PG not a SG.

As bad as that may have been, it would have still been better than Chandler's one year of suck and us signing Diop.  Okafor (before Jefferson signed) was still the best big we've ever had, and at least he's a consistent double/double guy.

 

And here comes the draft people with what if's and what may be's on future picks instead of signing what we know is a sure thing, that Henderson is a pretty good scorer that is getting better and an excellent defender, and a guy that can also fill in at SF if needed.   Please sign him.

We could have had Oak at PF and drafted Brooke Lopez that year.
