I finally weighed in on this after much thought and reading others thoughts. I’m out on this deal because I’d rather have Ball at a max contract(isn’t that less than $30M?) than Lowry at $30M. I wonder if the teams that Ball is interested in are interested in him that much (if indeed we would even have to go that high for him for those teams to be out)?
The idea of Lowry for Powell and JRich is stomachable for that contract. Wonder if we could do something similar with NO? Maybe Kleber instead of Powell who would be a better fit next to Zion? Of course I would prefer Powell. That honeymoon certainly appears to be over there in NO, doesn’t seem like it would take much to be rid of him.
Plus, this has the “added benefit” of bowing out of the Lowry race and not upping their bid for his services! That would for sure take some balls to pull off for a new GM!
