So what is the board's opinions on Hart's value? If he would just attack early more often to get a couple easy baskets his efficiency would probably go up significantly.
He's a solid bench roleplayer, a good rebounder. Not really a great shooter or finisher, makes a lot of bonehead plays, not a great playmaker or a self-creator, but he hustles hard and is a decent enough defender and its' not like he's a total non-shooter either.
Would be extremely sceptical of paying him anymore than about $12m a year. Can't afford to cough up big money for decent bench guys when you're still trying to fit our your main roster.
Basketball.
And his performance this year so far hasn't done much to help his value. Hope we can keep him...a team needs a high energy hustle guy on the bench
This is around what I heard in the offseason and I think he's basically playing into that contract, not much more. 35% on 3.5 attempts per game just won't cut it long term, but I have confidence that, at the very least, the volume can improve.
Another nice thing about giving Hart more than the MLE is for future trade aggregation. Every dollar can help
So what do we think Lonzo Ball's trade value is right now? What would it take for you to move him prior to the deadline?
Depends on what he is looking for in a contract. That would make the decision of whether we trade him or not and whether another team is willing to take him on based on his contract demands. Do you think he demands more than say, $18-$20 million a year? If so, I think that limits his destinations.
If the Bulls are truly interested, not sure what they have that we would be interested in other than draft picks.
If lonzo continues to play like this he will be worth 20mil per year .. at least.
Lonzo is worth $15-$16 million max. He is an extremely inconsistent player and always will be because of his attitude and mentality. I would only sign him to anything more as a sign and trade to match salaries to get Beal.
If he stays inconsistent then he will be worth even less but what if he actually becomes consistent? He is still young and had VERY LITTLE stability so far. His shooting form has really changed and he is starting to attack the rim a bit more. His form at the free throw line looks better too. If he turns the corner and just keeps playing like this he will be worth 20 mil if not more. His defense is great and he also seems like a cool dude who won’t pout
The question is how much are you willing to gamble that he will turn that corner.
If you pay him $20 or $25m and he doesn't turn that corner, you've basically hamstrung the entire team and your ability to team-build throughout the entirety of Ingram's contract and Zion's rookie deal. Which is a potentially franchise wrecking mistake.
Lonzo is probably not a fit long term next to Zion and BI unless he's a legit 40% 3 point shooter that attracts an extreme amount of gravity. If he's not, then the only reason to sign him to an extension is to keep the asset. If the purpose of keeping Lonzo is to keep the asset, then you have to ask your self at which price point is the asset completely depreciated or negative.
