1. HCP should put together a video montage of all of Aldridge's failed jumpers and missed free throws in the 4th quarter for them to play when Spurs get introduced (push play right after they say his name)!
I agree big time on 5. The last thing we want to hear about is if stotts should be fired or not. If it gets to that point then you know it's bad.
I know pretty much all my friends were very disappointed that Wes left. I know he was loved, but people don't like being walked out on FAMS.
moving to Los Angeles and going on all their talk show programs saying you didn't expect to be back and asking for big money, a go to role while being saddled with a serious injury come into play here. He wanted to get paid and he did...Wes made his demands known and chose his path...we didn't victimize him..he priced himself out
They'd have given him 15 mill...not 70 mill for 4 ..I knew a team would do that..I thought it would have been the Laker, Suns or Knicks but then he had the Canales connection in Dallas. Cuban showed him the money
I really thought the Suns were perfect for Wes..Hornacek was his shooting coach in Utah, they have the best rehab facilities in the league.
So all the stuff you listed, that HCP equates to him walking or on us, earned him $55M more in guaranteed money? If so, nobody with any sense or perspective would blame it denigrate him for any of it.
exactly..Wes survived the cut and made out..I'm glad he did and I'll enjoy watching him play for Dallas when he can.
