Who really cares about leadership from career back-up who hasn't improved much since his rookie year? We had "leadership" from RJ last year, who was an all star at some point, and that helped to the worst record in the West. And he took PT away from Burks. Would much rather have better talent in...

We don't know how much of that second year is guaranteed. We know some if it is, which is already suboptimal. And Booker is not exactly known for his defense. Undersized and not very athletic. He is an OK back-up with very little potential to improve. His rookie year production is essentially...

Stokes could be Booker type of player this year. Look at Booker's career numbers. His rookie numbers are very similar to last year's ones. Stokes could come in and give same kind of production for one tenth of the price. Not to mention we have Evans already signed who produced same numbers last...

So we now have 2 PF back-ups worth 17.2 mil on multi year deals. When we already got a PF back-up in Evans who put up same numbers as Booker last year. Why not just draft Jarnell Stokes, pay him a mil over two years to be the third stringer?

I can't post a lot less, since I don't post much to begin with, but I did notice how completely useless and uninformed nearly every single post you make is. Another meaningless post with nothing of value to offer, showing very little intellectual capacity. Take your own advice and stop wasting...

The reason we had first round pick is for using cap room to gain first round picks, not second rounders. Novak trade, while cost us 7.2 mil of cap room of non expiring deal, did not get us first rounder, which it should have. The fact Hood is doing well so far emphasizes the importance if...

7.2 mil multiple year deal is worth at least a first rounder, not second. Boston just got one for half the price. How many extra first round picks in addition to our own are coming our way that we would ignore opportunities to get first rounder and instead get some 10 mpg scrub because he is a...

It should and will until you actually understand it. I like!

You are exactly right. Then why in the world did DL not deal with teams which need the relief more and are willing to pay more for it? 7.2 mil is not chump change. Yet another example of how other teams used about a quarter of that amount to get double what we got. Also a big factor is the fact...

He is just too big

The kid picked with that second round pick in this draft was actually projected by almost everyone to be a first rounder in a very deep draft, and has slipped. He then dominated in SL. We basically just traded away first round talent for some second rounder in the future. Why not just keep that...

We already have back-ups to Kanter and Favors: Gobert and Evans. And we spent a pick a while ago on Tomic. Not saying we need to bring him in now, but we have 2 back-ups under contract already and if we need to, we can bring a minimum player as 12th man. Why take up 3.75 mil next year for a 12th...

If his connections are only good enough to pick up 2nd round pick for 7.2 mil and take on two year contract of a pathetic scrub, then we are in big trouble

He is probably still celebrating a pickup of Novak. That's 7.2 mil well spent, and with second round pick to boot, he is probably pleasuring himself right now, while other teams pickup first rounders for a lot less.

Well, LA just got a player much better than Novak on an expiring contract and netted a first round pick in the process, while DL was busy taking on 7.2 mil non expiring contract of a pathetic scrub Novak for just 2nd rounder. The title of this thread is making more and more sense.

13 mil was and still is too much for Hayward. This team needs to find a core group of guys to build around before offering MAX to above average players who are not stars. Maybe Exum will become one, maybe Burke and Burks will explode next year. Perhaps Hood or Kanter will dominate. We need to be...

It would be a mistake to match this offer. Jazz are not going to contend in next 3-4 years. Hayward is not a missing piece to championship, nor is he a player to build the team around. This is the time to stockpile assets and get difference makers through the draft. With MAX contract Hayward is...

Danny Ainge just got a first round pick for taking on 3.2 mil of contracts of young players from Cavs. If anyone was doubting how stupid of a move it was for DL to take on 7.2 mil non expiring contract of an overpaid scrub for just a second round pick, here is an example of what half of that...

If anyone had any doubts about how much of a useless scrub Novak is, this post should have erased it. 7.2 mil non expiring contract of a pathetic scrub, which will count 3.6 mil next year against the CAP plus a nice trade exception for Toronto just for a second round pick? What a poor move by...

Hayward is no Lexus. More like Toyota Camry. He is above average player, has talent to improve, still young, and exceeded expectations for a #9 overall pick. However to call him a premium player is a stretch. Van Gandy nailed it when he said Gordon 6-8 mil a year player. Anything more would be...
