High5 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) If we brought back Horford and Baze and added Deng we could be quite good. Especially if Splitter has a decent bounce back and/or Edy becomes more of a contributor. But good enough to beat Cleveland? No. I don't think we're capable of piecing together a team that can beat Cleveland this season short of getting Durant.

BigDog90 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 6 hours ago, NBASupes said: This was huge news to me. I been trying to figure out who we are targeting and it's Deng. Grant Hill and him have a great relationship and Miami wants to retain him. Miami and his agent have agreed to a range of 2/24 but Miami just doesn't have the cap room and Whiteside is pushing their hand as he really wants a max deal. Atlanta wants him for the same dollar value, but an extra year with for his BR. Deng has interest in Atlanta but there are teams who suck who are offering a lot more than Miami and Atlanta would be willing but they suck and no one who's a vet and good wants to play there. You would be surprised who I heard is on the block and no it's not Sap or Kyle and I can't say. Wilcox said it already so it's not news to no one but Atlanta wants to retain Al and Bazemore back. For Al, the max of course and for Baze, 10-12 mil. The market on Baze is around the same amount. Not too many teams want to overpay for Bazemore as there is a long list of average wings on the FA market. Other news is Atlanta is open to trades. This once again is NOT news since C. Viv already said this on 92.9 but it's news nonetheless. If Whiteside leaves, they can afford him. Deng at PF > Deng at SF. I wouldn't be surprised if Whiteside leaves MIA. I guess Hardaway is on the block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Sothron Posted June 25, 2016 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Why the hell would we want Deng after drafting two SFs?? We need a big man and let Horford walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrYellow Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Deng is definitely not our guy. Old, has never played in a system like bud's: a big contract would be the real coup de grace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hylndr11 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 They say he had a great season, his numbers are all down, this guy doesnt score either, he does rebound, I guess thats it ? Deng would be fine, but yea I was really starting to like the idea of another big where Horf could move to PF sometimes - but I think horford is going to do more in the paint for us and get dirty, hes got nothing to lose now - and we played ball with him his way and this city loves him. He said right after the loss to CLE his offseason was focused on working in the post. We will see, but ideally Id like one more person than Deng if were not getting Durant, which looks to stay in OKC and he should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nothing else Deng would get all his minutes at his true position of SF if we secure Al. Still, he physically is not what he was even two years ago because of Thibodeau's minutes abuse of him in that all out defensive scheme. He has the D part down but his 3 part is a question. On or off gun. Right now he's at ten million but what would he look for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hylndr11 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Deng didnt play SF last year ? ok then maybe that will get him back up - only thing im seeing is his rebounding, saying we move Baze to the 2, I love his Def and the team should be the best DEF team we have had, but damn we need a scorer. I think the hope Dennis can turn into something and Baze can improve, and what is CLE doing, do they have the cap to keep this team together, ??

Guest Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Deng is done. Thibs wore him out in Chicago and I don't think his body has much more to give. No way would I sign him. He is entering his 14th year. I just can't I'm sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViewsFromTheSquawk Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 f*** this man. Luol Deng provides nothing more than what Baze or Thabo provides just he'd be another aging bigger contract. Screw you Atlanta! Go some stones and go get Derozan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not exactly sure Derozan is the answer either. He's a really good player. I just don't think he's the perfect fit for us. Just my opinion.
