    Max money for a post player who doesn't have any moves in the post and can't shoot...

    I like TT, he's the Wes Matthews of PFs. However, paying max $$ for the 4th best player on your team seems more than a bit crazy.

    I thought Cliff Alexander was the younger version of Wes Mathews

    According to Wheels, Alexander is sounding like a younger version of King Kong. We can all hope.....

    I can see it now, Cliff hanging from the rim swatting at all the bricks being shot at him

    Wes is a perimeter player who guards the perimeter well, is one of the best 3-point shooters in the league, the best guard in the league when it comes to post ups and a good finisher on fast breaks.

    Thompson can rebound.

    I don't see the similarity.

    Tristan Thompson is a clown. He's not even worth half of what he's asking for.
