He's ours for a 2 more years We need him....and McDermott to get that 3rd seed If we get the 3 and play the Nets, we will win that series pretty easily IMO. Like 4-1, maybe 4-2.

He just needed a place where he could get comfortable on and off the court thankfully it was Indiana. After watching him play in the Olympics in Brazil I was sold. He did it all for Croatia. It was amusing when the word was he was just a 3 point specialist who was a liability almost in every other part of the game. The guy looks like an all star We resign him for sure he's going to get a pay raise much deserved. I'd like to see Thad and Wes back too. This team is going to be dangerous this year but look out when Vic gets back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team is going to be dangerous this year but look out when Vic gets back I know we have a lot of players to sign but I'm thinking we might just offer everybody (Bogdonavic, Thad Young, Collison and Cory Joseph) a 2-year deal... ..and ride with this team for the last 2 years of Vic's contract. I think we may already have an understanding with Wesley Mathews that he'll be back next season. If not, we let Evans go and keep Wes. Holiday and Leaf are on the rise...Sumner and Alize are in the pipeline\..and we held onto our No.1 pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's always started all his career. We will ask him to give his starting position back to Vic and move to the 2nd team We have probably already discussed this with him, I'd bet. It probably comes down to how well we do in the playoffs...(and cash money) If we win a series or two, he'll want to stay....for maybe $12-$14 mil,. He, in effect, would be out 'free agent acquisition' This is not a bad team to be on for a veteran player.

I’d look to upgrade our PG’s if possible Holiday isn’t ready to start but man his brother is. Jrue is a guy I’d love to have. We could lock teams down with Jrue and Vic in the backcourt then Myles at the rim. We have plenty of time to figure that out. I want to see what we can this year without Vic.
