That would have to be a sign and trade which we can’t do
Um, he couldn't agree to sign for less now and as his top line increases we top it later? Mmmm, no, the league couldn't stop him from agreeing to lesser money with some belief we'd make it up to him at some future date. By contract, no...of course...but if he wanted to take the risk, he could. There would be no way to get a contract or guarantee...that would be the nature of the beast.
I agree that that is a horrible trade.JeremyG wrote: ↑Tue Jun 20, 2023 9:42 pmAdams averaged 3.4 points and 6.4 rebounds in the playoffs last year. And you all thought Ayton underperformed?
Can you imagine the meltdown on here if Ayton had a stat line like this in game 1 of the playoffs? 24 minutes, 0 points, 3 rebounds, 0 blocks, 0 steals, 4 fouls in a 13-point loss.
I don't understand why you make comparisons like this Jeremy. First of all, if you're getting Tyus Jones in the deal, it isn't just about comparing Ayton to Adams. Secondly, Adams isn't a max player; Ayton gets paid the max. Third, Adams has a completely different skillset: he is an enforcer, a dirtworker, and a solid passer.JeremyG wrote: ↑Tue Jun 20, 2023 9:42 pmAdams averaged 3.4 points and 6.4 rebounds in the playoffs last year.

Simple. I’m not looking to downgrade our center. And I don’t think Vogel is either.INFORMER wrote: ↑Wed Jun 21, 2023 9:54 amI don't understand why you make comparisons like this Jeremy.

And I am not even advocating for the deal. Your response just doesn't really make sense.

Vogel wants the best team possible. He isn't playing fantasy basketball and only looking to replace Ayton with someone who averages more than 18/10.JeremyG wrote: ↑Wed Jun 21, 2023 10:19 amSimple.
