Why? It isn’t an upgrade!

 

[miltonap]

Haha. Just saw it too.

Do yall think this means kuzma Middleton grant are off the table now?

I kind of think so, perhaps we get Bruce Brown like I've been saying.

Or the dark horse Herb Jones

 

[Hoovtrain]

I’m fine with it , but like that it’s only 3 years and under 20per

 

[miltonap]

18 mil isn't too bad I guess

 

[Hoovtrain]

Why? It isn’t an upgrade!

I think the FA market is pretty underwhelming. A trade was/is their best option

 

[miltonap]

I think if Harry were being paid to remain as a starter he would be getting more than 18 mil.

So maybe this is for him to have a role change which is what I hope for

 

[BigVirg]

Slight overpay IMO. We better bring in another starting caliber player. HB at 15 per gave us a lot more opportunity to bring someone else in.

HB at 18 is way better than Kuzma at 30 or whatever though.

Like way better

 

[SLAB]

Absolutely f’ing hate it.

 

[captain bill]

$18mm per is a steal. $17mm left for free agency with a core 6 in place is phenomenal. Bruce Brown + Lyles return would be great

 

[pdxKingsFan]

3 at 18 per is fine, treads water with his last deal, it might actually be a pay cut. Better if it's descending like last time, though probably not for trade purposes if we look to move him at the end of his contract.

 

[est.1999]

18 mil a year for a locker room presence

 

[sactowndog]

Don’t love it. But I could have lived with it if we had drafted Prosper as a young kid who could play some lock down defense.

the fact we sold our 1st round pick to sign Barnes and stay under the 1st Apron instead of trying to be a better team I hate. It is that kind of crap that will make this team a lottery team again soon.

 

[The_Jamal]

bleh.

Better than Kuz or Grant, but not much else. Gonna be cheesed if this thing actually is just us running it back with a Domas extension and Lyles reup.

 

[Turgenev]

First impressions: don't love it, don't hate it. Reasonable price, efficient sorer, good guy, consistently positive regular season contributor. But what does the team do next? Where does the defensive improvement come from?

Nah, there's actual value in securing Domas extension now and him not going to UFA.

But it's very very conservative approach and not one gets you over the hump. And HB is still actually good, I doubt he plays as poorly as he did in the playoffs again. (I hope...)

But if we ranked Sac outcomes, this was like 7th out of 10 possible routes I would have taken. Just... bleh.

Also, we still have 17ish mil for tomorrow. If we go get another piece, then we'll have something to evaluate.

 

[SacTownKid]

Not a bad price but I'm wondering what the deal is here. Selling that first kind of looks a bit iffy unless there's more.

 

[Kingz19]

 

[Les Jepsen Fan]

He’s not worth $18M Horrible.

remember other teams did add their picks and some of those are going to contribute. We benefitted from the least missed games last year. Falling into the lottery is not out of the question.

 

[The_Jamal]

Also, if this happens after game 82, all of us are (probably not Slab) are applauding this move and glad we got him back on such a reasonable deal for a good starter. That playoff series disappearance just left such a sour taste in everyone's mouth.

 

[SacTownKid]

The word contention is very interesting as well. Are we sure about that? Better hope that shift last deadline that just got worse this summer is a fraud. Lets see, Keegan, you're up my man, haha. If Sasha comes there's a chance and there potentially could be some more wiggle room with this deal we shall see.

 

[gilly420]

Hopefully team option on 3rd year.

sure but signing Barnes and extending Sabonis could all have been done without selling your first round pick. ………

so that scenario and keeping 24 is clearly a better scenario than what we are seeing from a fans perspective.

That would have been nice but this is an underpay. His position with the numbers and efficiency is probably around 22-25 for most teams. Lets see what Kuz gets I guess.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Good. Underrated as all hell. Perfect #5 option on offense and after hearing the plan for Keegan the front office knows they can’t ride Barnes as a third option. Still have work to do but maximize your top 5 pick instead of burying under a bigger name.

I’ve been ready to move off Harrison for like 3 years. Lmao

 

[Sac.Kings]

I don’t hate it but I don’t love it either. I thought it was time to separate from HB. I hope we are able to bring someone on who can push HB to the bench.

.

Only if Sabonis signs for way way way less than the max. We’ve been over this.
