Probably going to do a longer term deal. I can’t see them splitting up the WagBros.
Gotta bring him back longer, was our most efficient player and a good scorer for our bench which was huge for us this season.
Im wondering if they’re going to resign him to a front loaded contract?
No chance we are letting the heart and soul of our bench walk in free agency.
Moe has arguably been our best bench player. Can’t imagine both sides don’t want to see him return.
We’re giving him a much deserved raise
He will sign the mid level after we sign pg13 using cap space.
Interesting… things are lining up for maximum cap space. I thought joe’s option would be declined but didn’t really expect moe’s. I thought that if this happened it could only mean one thing: bigger space for bigger signings. I feel like Joe could be brought back for the minimum, and maybe moe for the mid level. Markelle is also an option to resign for the minimum. But it all adds up to using the money to add talent, not just run it back
I’m surprised by this, I wonder if they think they can keep him for 5-7 a year instead? Or maybe they are just going for Harstenstein
Longer contract?
What’s the max we can give him?
I think they take care of him after the large FA dominos fall, namely George
Are these strategic moves to use cap space on new player(s) and then resigning our guys over the cap space?
