Adam Hanga

[Jdspur20]

So is Hanga more of a SF or SG?

[JuneJive]

He ain't a shooter, so there's that.

His defense should be his calling card. In today's small ball age, I'd put him as a 3-4 tweener.

Apparently it is a wing that can defend but it is a bordeline 30% 3pt shooter (with FIBA three pt line to make matters worse).

So basically Danny Green with the ability to dribble and make layups.

I read that article this morning and sadly they don't state anything within the article definitive that he is, lol

[TheDoctor]

So he's basically an older-euro Andre Roberson?

" But that defense tho' " I guess?

Better ball handler and he knows how to play offensively off the ball.

Hopefully Chip can improve his 3 pt shooting

at people ing about getting a ELDPOY in his prime for the min just because he's not the next Manu. It's like finding a twenty on the ground but complaining about it because it's not a hundred.

Right? lol Looks like he can contribute to an already ailing spurs cast.

This guy could easily be a Simmons replacement, meaning we don't have to throw big money at a guy who would probably be redundant.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Wasn't Bowen like 28 when he came to the Spurs? 28 isn't that scary.

[rjv]

man, durant is 28 and curry is 29 so that must mean the dubs are over the hill.

[Russ]

Another athlete to wear down the Warriors.

It's not like Simmons contract will be outlandish tbh. Having both off the bench along with Green and Leonard is a pretty damn good defensive wing rotation.

I peg Brooklyn ,or another bad team, offering a offer sheet that looks similar to this:
Year 1-$8.4 million
Year 2-$8.4 million
Year 3-$17.2 million
Year 4-17.5 million
------------------------
$51.5 million/4 seasons

$12.875 million per season

considering the going rate for 3 and D's that's probably cheaper.

Assuming CP3 doesn't pan out then resigning Simmons (they would have to dump Gasol's contract to do so) , and bringing over Hanga, and hopefully Milutinov is pretty good off season.

[Chinook]

If the Spurs stay over the cap, Simmons' contract isn't bad, provided he is closer to how he was in the playoffs. But I'm not sure he's a long-term salary fit without having proved himself over time.

You make yourself sound like a clown.

Green is a career 40% three point shooter. That's a world different than 30%. A 30% shooter has an eFG% that would have been worst in the league by 3.7%. That's awful. A 40% shooter is coincidentally 3.7% better eFG% than the Warriors were. One needs to be defended at all times on the perimeter, the other you will gladly let shoot over and over.

I know all shots aren't created equally, but maybe you should think before you type.

But but but...Danny missed his last three shots!! He must be an awful shooter!!

Adam Hanga is a breed between JSIMMS & Thabo Sefelosa.. His biggest weaknesses are Shooting, you'd expect the same game type as what you currently see in JSIMMS - long ball...

[Leetonidas]

53% from the field 38% from three....people acting like this dude is rondo from distance or something I know fiba t3 is easier but still

Simmons main strength on offense is driving to the basket. That's not the offense I've seen in Hanga's videos. He's more breaks and cuts.

How much of the MLE would have to be eaten into to sign Hanga? And does this impact ability to retain Simmons (if staying above cap, my understanding is it doesn't - and no MLE if below cap).

[spursistan]

[spursistan]

Probably means they expect Simmons to be priced out of their range..And knowing Pop's "more than just basketball" ethos, they will tell him to go get the money considering where he comes from..

[DAF86]

So basically Danny Green with the ability to dribble and make layups.

I wish he was as good a 3pt shooter as Danny, even ice cold Danny.

If they stay over, then they could use the LLE and leave the MLE for Simmons but that would mean that Simmons is almost certainly gone. If the go under the cap route then it would mean that they would probably have to dump Gasol to open enough cap space to retain him (see my post a few posts up)

Edit:
Apparently Simmons won't take up the MLE at all, but the under the cap scenario is still true
