Mauro Pedrosa 1,032 Report post Posted June 4, 2016 Beal is 22. This is one of those ones we'll just revisit in a few years and move on for the time being. I would pay him if I was Washington and feel good about it. To move on from this subject, Pick 1: Biymombo Ezeli Mahinmi Whiteside Whiteside is by far the better player. Biyombo would be my number 2, Mahinmi a distant third. Ezeli is mediocre and I'd rather give Dedmon a chance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can argue the effectiveness of biyombo vs ezili vs mahinmi but I feel like the first two are going to suffer from name recognition salary inflation.

Justin Jaudon 221 Report post Posted June 4, 2016 Pick 1: Biymombo Ezeli Mahinmi Whiteside I love Ezeli, but he'll probably be overpaid. Biyombo will also likely be overpaid. I think Mahinmi is the lesser player, but he's our most likely pickup - and he's still a good player, just not as good as Ezili in my mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, Rob and Vogel have both said we need toughness and vet players to not only compliment the core but also lead them,on and off the court. Plan D certainly fits that bill. Plan E is worst case scenario; which, still isn't horrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeHateMe 697 Report post Posted June 4, 2016 Plan A: KD & Horford Plan B: Batum & Horford Plan C: Horford & Noah Plan D: Noah & Deng Plan E: Mahinmi & Dudley No to all but A & B. If E is what we came out with I'd probably watch 10 games next year. Noah & Deng does nothing for me, people say Rob doesn't touch injury prone players, but yet that's 2 guys that have been nothing but injured. My top 12 Free Agents in order: Durant Whiteside Conley Derozan Beal Batum Barnes Horford Parsons Ezeli Byiombo Anderson Of those, maybe 6 are realistic targets. Derozan & Beal stay put. Durant is a pipe dream. Conley will find greener pastures. Anderson isn't a good fit. Parsons has chronic knee issues. I have no interest in Noah/Deng/Howard. I'm not completely against Noah as a reserve but he will still demand a descent contract. That leaves: Whiteside Batum Barnes Horford Ezeli Biyombo I'd be happy with any combination of 1 of the 4 centers & 1 of the 3 SF's. Whiteside & Batum I'd probably get my season tickets back. Even Horford & Batum I'd get my season tickets back. I'm higher on Barnes then most on here so him with Horford would have me amped too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Despite his weaknesses, he was the most consistent including in the playoffs. Vogel could teach him some things to shore up some of the weaknesses. Biyombo numero dos. He's always been someone who I thought could be what we saw in the playoffs. I don't think it's a fluke. Plus I like to give him the nickname "b$&@smack".

HeHateMe 697 Report post Posted June 4, 2016 I don't want to be the team that gives biyombo 60+ million I really wouldn't mind. Biyombo could be a really good fit with us. Super tough, elite rebounder, great athlete, runs the floor well, elite defender and still just 23 (which is crazy, seems like he's been in the league forever). He's never giving you much on offense ever though. I would rather have Horford & Batum then Biyombo & Batum obviously though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
