Ihart is gone

Who's left to fill in for center

 

[nick.]

Robinson back to the starting lineup is fine.

Need 2-3 dependable backups, though with his health.

 

[ballinsam23]

Tough loss.

Get that back up from Orlando and resign Precious.

 

[Air Pope]

29 m’s a year is crazy. Gotta take that money. He’s making more than Brunson bridges and Randle now

 

[harlemtothebronx]

That’s a lot of money. Good investment for OKC. Not so much for us right now.

Hopefully we pick up a solid backup with room for growth like we did IHart. I think we’ll be fine with some depth at Center.

 

[big j 33]

Good for him, you can't pass up that kind of money.

 

[you go boy]

ya no thanks to that contract but props to him for securing the bag... now I don't have to look up ihart news anymore lol

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Terrible contract for a guy that’s only going to average 10 and 10. He’s a good player, fit the team well, but he’s not a $30M a year guy.

 

[masagipatron]

This some Brightskin ********

 

[nick.]

Yeah I'm not sure we go up go $29M/year even if we were able to.

But, that's the type of offer it was going to take. He would have returned if the money was anywhere close.

 

[biggie62]

They front loaded the contract with the 3rd year not being guaranteed too.

 

[ballinsam23]

There will be another trade soon anyway. Only way of making the Bridges trade finalized.

 

[アミーゴ]

Right sentiment in here today - proud of you guys. Good for him, now we MOVE

 

[pr0phecy718]

 

[アミーゴ]

Yeah read that from Begley - I’m sure we get a very appreciative post or comment from iHart.

 

[pr0phecy718]

 

[nick.]

Goga is the best & closest iHart replacement but again, we're limited to what we could offer.

 

[ballinsam23]

I wouldnt even mind taking a flier on Wiseman. Maybe with the right culture and Thibs he can be serviceable. More skilled than Sims.

i was thinking the same thing. still really young and might not have found the right coaching fit yet. if we had a disposable asset, i'd like to make a move for Steven Adams.

can't be mad at Hartenstein for taking that deal. no one else was going to pay him close to that tbh. i said it before that he'd have to get up to at least 15ppg to get to 20+ mil, so i'm cool with him walking for that price. it is a bit of head scratcher to trade for Mikal AND pay OG imo. i get that we couldn't let OG walk and Mikal is a great fit, but both is eh considering we are thin at C.

also, at Philly giving PG 200mil just to lose to us again.

 

[d3si]

Congratulations to iHart! Happy for him

He will always be iHart to us

 

[gaiiige]

i'm pretty sure we have the taxpayer MLE ~5m, now that Hartensteins gone

i took a look at free agent centers and its disgustingly bad

richaun holmes, daniel theis, cody zeller, mo bamba. yikes

 

[ballinsam23]

Get this guy. He's a poor mans iHart and the passing instincts are there.
