Hayward's getting PAID.
4-year, $63M sounds rich...crazy market
A little over 15 mil a year, that's about right for his numbers in this NBA climate. All these deals are litmus tests for what other teams are going to throw at Leonard when he's a FA. Gotta lock him up to an extension
If Utah doesn't match, the Hornets actually have a solid young roster. They had a solid draft too, picking up Noah Vonleh and PJ Hairston. In a terrible Eastern conference, they should be a top 5 seed next year imo.
Yeah they're actually really young. I don't know if many of their young guys have that high of an upside though. MKG's been mediocre and Zeller was pretty average for a rookie. At least Kemba is good.
Kemba's assists have steadily gone up and his shooting has improved. They have Jefferson to anchor the front court and some guys around him. Solid team for the East.
From what I've read, MKG's shooting motion has looked a lot better this off-season. If he can shoot better in games, his ceiling is actually fairly high.
Despite what Hornets fans believe, however, they need a PG. That's why them dumping Hayward (the center) was so stupid.
Noticed he Is free to. Tall, athletic, averaged about 11 and 6 last year. Would be a nice bench big man. Isn't he a bit of a head though? Not Spurs material? Think I've heard that somewhere.
How much was he making that they could have dumped him for a vet PG? They could always inquire about Felton, I bet Dallas would dump him in a second
I think he's making $2 Million or so this season. But his contract for 2015-2016 is a fully non-guaranteed $10 Million. They could have used all their cap space this year and then used Haywood (which is the guy's actual name) and some picks to get another near-max player next year.
Hayward for $15M/yr is utterly ridiculous.
So Bosh is going to Houston, it give them a scary team that put us in rough spot, how RC react to this?
Probably the same way he reacted to their acquisitions of Harden and Howard.

He's cancelling the 2014-15 season.
The plot thickens.
Looks like someone's clearing cap room.
Yeah, 8 mil gone, 30th pick is worth giving for it. Cleveland have good core and cap space. Just sayin
That was exactly the amount Cleveland needed to clear to offer the Max to Lebron. This trade was in place 2 days ago I believe. I guess they waited until it they were certain Lebron was going back to Cleveland.
Yeah. The only other possibility is that they're getting trolled by LeBron.
LeBron can't possibly troll them this hard after the Decision...if he doesn't go back now, after making them clear cap space like this, then he should just never set foot in Cleveland for the rest of his life...
If the Cavs did this without getting a verbal commitment from Lebron, then they're stupid. After Carlos Boozer, they're probably stupid to accept a verbal commitment at all, but that's another debate.
