    Do you really think so? We will see. A TON of teams will have money this offseason, and there's only one or two top tier free agents available. Would Hickson at 9-10 million be a massive mistake? Hell yes. Will some GM overpay him after exhausting other options? There's a good chance.

    If someone is looking for a friendly (no money needed) wager I will put the over-under at 8.1 MIL average per year if someone wants to take the over, I will take the under.

    Sure, I'll take the over.

    Sounds good. The loser will do like a picture change or new signature of the winners choice or something.

    There are a lot of bigs coming out this summer. Even though there are "A ton of teams having cap space"; how many of them already have bigs?

    Then you look at the bigs available, and notice at least 5 will be had before Hickson (Smith, Dalembert, Jefferson, Milsap, Pek) By the time these teams get them; there won't be much left for a Hickson type player, IMO

    I think we should be prepared for Hickson to make an All-Star team somewhere else. If he keeps putting up numbers like he is, he'll get one or two nods. If Zach can make a team, so can Hickson.

    That's actually a really good point. Zach has been and is still a bad defender.

    Dalembert isn't getting more than Hickson. No chance in hell.

    Okay, but he will be picked before Hickson, IMO.

    Zach has a better offensive game, but Hickson isn't a knucklehead like Zach, so it's a tradeoff.
