Post 2020-21, free agency outgoing and incoming

Former Celtic! Also It is Clickbait Rick so grain of salt

With LaMelo having shown what he can be, and several years of data on many of the other young players, I expect the team to make a lot more changes this summer than they did last.

Wouldn’t shock me if the team made a trade involving PJ, Miles, or even Terry. I’m pretty sure that Cody is gone. Someone is going to offer him more than the Hornets want to. Monk is 50/50, but I lean towards him being somewhere else next year.

If I woke up with my face sewn to the carpet Eddie, I wouldn’t be more surprised than if if we traded any of those three in the next year.

We already floated PJ in a trade to Indy, it’s a possibility imo

“During the offseason we have to be careful. If we’re going to spend our money we need to have our eye on the next 2-3 years and not solely focus on one year, because if we do that we can get into trouble.” -Kupchak

Assuming spotrac is accurate:


If we only keep Devonte’, that leaves us over $25m under the cap to sign a FA no? If we can get into some fun S&T stuff with a Holmes and say Monk, then that makes room for more options.

I wouldn’t do 20 mil per year to Holmes.

Good gravy no!

I have a strong feeling Charlotte is going to go full on 2016 all over again

20mil seems too much. Is 15mil fair or still an overpay?

20m might be a bit high. 15m likely won’t get anything done. There’s a Goldilocks deal in there somewhere. I think feilding a 4 year deal for landing “the” type guy we need is a good move, not a bad one.

16mm per year/3 years maybe? I don’t know what other teams have the space to sign him. That might play a factor on how much he can get

Wonder if theres a Mitchell Robinson trade out there

He loses all value at that salary. His value is when he is being paid 10mil or less.

Bleacher report proposed this

Charlotte Hornets Receive: C Tristan Thompson

Boston Celtics Receive: 2023 second-round pick (via Boston Celtics)

Seems like a no brainer but I doubt Boston will do this unless they want to save $$$$. Also, trading/getting another Celtic is not at all bad, but seems like a weird pattern.

Not something I’d want to do. We need to go after someone with a future, not someone that’s expended all value already.
