    Too expensive. The teams winning championships don't have their starting center taking up such a big portion of the salary.

    Pels won 36 and would take a lot for them to be the most improved.

    Fun fact, Paolo threw out the first pitch at one of the Mariner's games I went to this summer. The stadium actually got pretty loud for him. I didn't even stand up.

    kind of impressive. More impressive that Magic did that in basically 11 seasons. While Lebron is about to enter year 20.

    I’m more impressed with the ability to play in the league 20 seasons to be honest.

    Then you really should be impressed with John Stockton, since he played 19 years and missed 22 games....total.
    And that included him coming back from a microfracture surgery and missing very little time.

    Ignoring that he's a whackadoodle anti-vaxxer though.

    speaking of whackadoodle: Aaron Rodgers is an anti-vaxer and Brett Farve might go to jail for welfare fraud...what's up with Green Bay QB's?

    Jordan too. He’d play 82 games 40 mpg every year back in his prime.

    But what about chemistry? Isn’t having better chemistry better than having more talent?

    The most important thing is making sure Damian doesn't drink like a fish anymore.

    I will admit that a bench of Jackson/Kennard/Batum/Roco/Zubac would certainly give me a lot of confidence in my team. All of those guys are good enough to start on several teams.

    I've heard Powell and Roco are trash so i'm confused why they are pictured here.
