Hibbert tonight have 0 points , 5 rebounds and 0 blocks play 23 mins. I don't know why some of u here want to pay max money for such production


Who said they want the team to pay max money for him?


he is still not worth 12-15 mil for such production.


I don't think you have a good grasp on NBA salaries.


Someone will overpay him and give him at least 12 mil. Nothing wrong to admit u make a mistake wanting a player produce zero points in 23 mins and want to pay him eight digits in salaries. Lucky u r not lakers GM LOL.


He's going to be paid over $12m, likely $15m.

Exactly. What he produce on the court is not worth his next contract or what his contract is paying him now.

Right, we can pay less for a no defense, no anchor Hill and continue to suck in the paint. We might be terrible, but at least we didn't overpay for a guy who could help us.

Very possible from a cap standpoint.

Lakers overpay him for his shorter contract. 2 years contract with second year team option not what he produce on the court. U need to overpay guys to take shorter deal when he can get a longer deal elsewhere

I rather pay kosta koufos for half the salary or lesser than hibbert and produce about the same as him. I can use the reminding cap space on other position.

You are severely underrating Hibbert on defense. He is still an elite defender imo.

This is because he try to contest every shots at the rim and end up got himself in foul trouble. The reason why he got 0 points in 23 mins. Such a low basketball IQ player. U also underrate kosta Koufos defense. So far this season he has a better defensive rating points allowed per 100 possessions than hibbert.

Koufos hasn't been able to average 20 mpg. Hibbert has played deep into the playoffs. Koufos is a nice backup.

DRating is also a reflection of the overall team. Memphis is so much better overall than Indy.

The more I think about it the more I like it. A defensive anchor and an aggressive attacking guard to take a load off Kobe. In 2016 we could sign one of the many young shooting guards to replace Kobe.

Hibbert play more badly in the playoff than regular season. He only had one good playoff run .Koufos + another player is better than hibbert alone. Lakers need help at every position. U need to pay players for both end of the court not just one end if u pay more than 10 mil

Really ? Is David west better than anthony davis ? Deep playoff run mean nothing whether he is a good or bad player.

Koufous is an 18-22 mpg center. Who is playing for the other 26 minutes? Koufous won't be cheap either, probably $6-7m/year.

I would say 5-7, with Davis in the same range (or a little less). Could have a three headed center for as little as 10-12 mil.

Worth noting that the bench d with koufos is better than the starting d with Marc.

The point is that Hill sucks as an anchor and you have to pay for someone who doesn't. Be it Hibbert, Lopez, Asik, Gasol. Those guys will likely be overpaid.

True, though I am a fan of adding Koufos.

Or draft one. There is one out there I would love to pick up.

I think we are assuming that we are out of the top 5 pick territory. Would take close to $28-29m to sign both Hibbert/RJax.

He's not "pissed off." He knows what's at stake here. Spurs want to be able to have $8-9m more in cap space. Sure, he was just the Finals MVP and wanted the 5 year max right away, but Spurs have explained their thought process. He seems fine with it now. It's a waste of time IMO. I'd rather try Butler instead. Popovich and Co. know the team will be build on Leonard's shoulders.


There's no way Kawhi comes here. We are the philosophical antithesis of the Spurs.
