Thread: [Official - trade complete] Hornets Trying to Land RFA Lopez from the Suns {merged}

  1. #151
    The Hornets can probably get him if they just trade Aminu for him.

    Either way, Lopez or not, the Hornets need to find a true center so they can handle Asik when he comes to town

    I hope they can land Lopez...I think it will allow Davis to develop quicker, the more he plays at the 4.

    Handle Asik ? The dude couldnt hit the broad side of a barn with a baseball from 10 feet away !
    Just because you pay a guy 8 million a year, doesnt mean that he got rid of one of his left hands !

    Because the more he gets, the more they get. Of course they'd like to see him get $7mil.

    The Market has pretty much dried up. He's not getting anywhere near 7 mil in the open market.

    Wishful thinking, is all it is.

    At this point, Lopez could be just what the doctor ordered. But we aren't going to be overpaying just cuz we need a big. Uh-uh, I ain't hearin' that, see?

    Man, you guys are really desperate thinking we need a C so bad. Lopez is pretty bad. Seriously, have any of you actually watched him play? He's not good no matter how you try to spin it. Plus he's a headcase.

    If Jason Smith is worth $2.5 million, then Lopez is maybe worth a $1 million. I know, I know, market for big men, 7 footers, blah blah. Whatever. Just because Morey is a moron and pays Asik like he's half decent doesn't mean we should blow $4-5 million on a mediocre talent.

    NBA GMs are dumb. If we could find a productive guy like Smith at his price tag, we can find another. I'd rather not have a center at all than pay Lopez more than $2 million because the bottom line is the dude is not very good.

    Lopez may have an opinion of his value that may need recalibration. Since all 3 parties have to agree here, he seems to be sticking point given our needs and their needs.

    Meh, disagree. I'd say he's worth $4-5 million. The only people you can get away with paying $3 million or less in this league are total bottom feeders/perpetual roleplayers and, at 24, Lopez doesn't fit into that category... not yet at least.
