Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 30, 2019 So I guess we're thinking Okeke probably doesn't play this year and is a "rookie" the following year and ready to contribute year 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Boss 129 Report post Posted June 30, 2019 If he's not, the FO just took a massive, uncalculated gamble, going into luxury tax with a roster ran by a DJ/MCW/Briscoe combo. Hope Fultz is well on track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ML6 520 Report post Posted June 30, 2019 You guys really only see Fournier's negatives. If he shot at his average this past season he would've been a very effective player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tank Vogel 191 Report post Posted June 30, 2019 If Fultz sucks then we detonate the roster. Someone will take Aminu for a stretch run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He'll see a lot of time as the main backup for the 4 this year and will be pretty solid as a starter if Gordon goes down but next season you have Okeke as well so that's quite the log jam, it's just puzzling with it being a 3 year deal. Has to mean Fultz is good to go right??? I'm praying Fultz is good to go so bad. I understand. We go from worrying about a salary cap to going into the luxury tax. Somebody said it here before when we zig, Weltham zags. If I knew we would be this active, which I love, it would have saved me a ton of posts. Good day for us.

He’s not a high IQ player. He makes too many mental mistakes and doesn’t play team ball. He continuously ignores the cutter or the player in the corner for the three. He throws bad pases dribbles our of bounds and chucks up head scratching shots throughout the game. No thanks but I’ll pass on that nonsense. We need teammates who make one another better that’s how you build a strong culture and get FA players who wanna sign here. Sure Fournier hit a few game winners but that’s because he had to make up for the bad plays he made down the stretch. If he played within himself I’d be ok with keeping him but he tries to do too much and isn’t as talented as he thinks he is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah. But he didn't and wasn't. Becau s e of what we've done todsy, it makes no sense to let him play out his contract. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 30, 2019 Ok. Thinking about this more if Okeke comes back this year and looks capable we could definitely dump aminu for something like a second rounder at least with no issue. So there might not be any difference between aminu for one year or three years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
