    They were willing to excuse that because he was an all-star. You really think they'd go after a role player coming off a major injury if he was also a "cancer"?

    If we did that, we wouldn't have been able to sign Turner.

    Maybe, but in the end, no one forced us to match.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    For comparable players. $19M is pretty similar to what Crabbe got (very slightly more) and Teague is a much better player.

    Crabbe was a second round pick made good. We had to hang on to him.

    Link? I saw $55 million for 4 years. That comes out to $13.75 million a year.

    Eve if it was $19 million, that's the same as Crabbe, the cap has gone uo another $5 million and Teague is a starter and a way better player.

    ^^^ That would be great but in games where he will only take 2-3 shots, it's tough to hit that many '3's. If he isn't hot, he doesn't continue to shoot.

    For basketball. We picked a guy in second round and developed him and made him into a good player. We had to keep him. Or why draft anyone if you're gonna always let them go elsewhere when they begin to reach their potential?
