    chandler isn't worth getting upset over missing out on. he's not a significant improvement (if he even IS an improvement) over what they have, and his salary would add to the lux tax, since iirc, the TPe doesn't count towards it unless it's actually used on a player.

    I answered those 2 issues and you just repeated them. 1) luxury tax and 2) significant player.

    Yeah, why is any fan worried about a BILLIONAIRE saving a few bucks.

    That's what I said. You're disagreeing with Julius and agreeing with me, so cite his post, not mine.

    He shouldn't. Because it's Paul Allen.

    Just like the Stotts apogists during the playoffs.

    If I was the owner, both would've been gone last off-season.

    Doesn't make sense to pay the tax for a first round sweep. He'll pay for a contending team but the NBA is being a dick about it.

    Money shouldn't be a problem, it's not for other owners with less money...

    Well if you're talking about owners like OKC then yes they are spending more...doesn't mean they're going to be any more successful lol.

    PG isn't going to make them more successful?

    Us adding a good player won't make us more successful?

    All I'm saying is, money shouldn't factor in.
