    My bigger fear was Ant finding an offer that gave him a PO in year 3. I want full control for 4 years.

    Exactly, or a big trade kicker or something. The Gary Trent JR contract would've been devastating.

    I know you hate Winslow, but he's part of that too. Also, those deals made the GP2 signing possible (wouldn't have been able to sign "hard-cap" if CJ and Norm's contracts are still on the books). And RoCo was walking regardless, so we wouldn't have had him this year in any case.

    So to be entirely accurate, from an "asset accumulation perspective", the comparison is CJ/Norm/Nance/TPMLE vs GP2/Hart/Grant/Winslow/Keon/Louzada.

    Grant wanting to come here luckily salvaged it.

    Because of their age, upside potential and cap increase that you guys have noted.

    I know it doesn't seem good now, but you also have to add #7 --> Sharpe

    Sharpe is not a part of any trade equation.

    well, he is certainly on the current asset list....you know, the "asset accumulation" post I responded to....Is he untouchable already?

    Since the context of the post was the results of the Clippers and Hornets deals, I wouldn't put Sharpe in there. We were going to have a 1st-round pick regardless of if those trades were made or not (please don't try to claim we might have accidentally backed into the playoffs). True we might not have dropped to 7, but we'd have picked somewhere 12 or higher. Thus, I'm not really considering Sharpe as part of the results of those trades.

    I missed that context...just saw asset accumulation and launched....geeezuz...sue me for not tracking every food-fight in the forum. It's summer and I'm busy working on my competitive tan preparing for the George Hamilton Cocoa Butter Open (non-speedo division)
