Because they think the GM should be able to do everything their little fantasy brains think is possible. And if they didn't, then it must have been the GMs fault that an extra $30 million didn't fall out of Paul Allens ass... There's a hiearchy of blame people put on the blazers. But it's never that it was unattainable in the first place. Can't admit when they were unealistic.
Buck Harvey @Buck_SA 3m This will make @Patty_Mills shoulder feel better. He and the Spurs have agreed to a 3-year contract. #Spurs
I am not sure Gasol will help OKC. He is an excellent complimentary player who passes the ball very well. But doesn't he have to get the ball first before he can pass it? As much as Kobe dominated the ball he still made sure he fed Pau. Not sure he will get many passes from KD or F. Westbrook. Also OKC runs very well as a team. Pau does not move as well as he did. He would fit better with Chicago IMO
LMAO @ Wade. Opt out of that nice contract and James ends up going to a different team. That would be a riot!
Wade and bosh opting out was a mistake, IMO. They were still getting good money. Lbj is 100% understandable because he's the Jordan of this new era. Wade is on the back end of his career and bosh just isn't the PF that he used to be.
I think Bosh can get a contract for 40+ mil . . . it is Wade that will have trouble getting that kind of money, IMO.
Honestly, I don't think we're getting Hawes. Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA 41m Under the scenario I modeled in this piece, up to $289 million available on open market after most big FAs sign http://www.basketballinsiders.com/enormous-contracts-are-the-nbas-new-reality/ … Someone is going to grossly overpay him. I think that's the reason why he hasn't committed to us.
Hawes said he is not in a hurry to decide. And really given his game and not a big endorsement type guy, logically he should go for the biggest contract. This will likely be his biggest contract of his career. I'm hoping for a sign and trade as long as Blazers don't feel the need to outbid another team and pay some ridiculous contract (although I don't know what is ridiculous contract these days)
Frank Isola @FisolaNYDN 2m When Carmelo re-signs with the Knicks does he have to reimburse the Bulls, Rockets, Mavs and Lakers for the free meals?
but but but we have bike lanes and micro brews and were closer to Seattle then anywhere else. Also he is white were a white city, it all makes sense!
