    For comparison, Beal is like 4 years younger and a much better scorer/shooter.

    I'd rathey pay Crabbe and I don't think Crabbe is that good. Only good move if it nabs us Horford.

    It's been a crazy good couple years for the 3-and-D guys. Former bench warmer Bazemore is in a good position now because DeMarre Carroll left for Toronto on a rich deal. And Demarre Carroll was himself a bench warmer in the not so distant past. In fact, he was on the Rockets once (a throw-in in a trade).

    But we discovered Chandler Parsons, and now we have to overpay him. :p

    Anyways....20 mil for Bazemore, geez cap space doubled? How much is Harden being paid this year. LOL

    Can he create his own shot ? If not then it's kind of confusing . Other than being young how's he different than Ariza ? If he can though then could be good move

    Big fan of his game and wanted him all year but $19-20 million per year?? /JerrySeinfeldOut.gif

    5 years ago he would've got 19-20 Mil over 3 years and been ecstatic. What a time to be an NBA player.

    I'd give him 12-13 MIL TOPS and not feel very good about that.

    Because Horford is following Bazemore wherever he goes? Are they dating or something?

    I'm sure there's a deal in place for Ariza that won't be done unless they lock up Bazemore. Probably brings the offer up slightly, but you Daryl has a ceiling for what it's worth. The team gets younger losing minimally on offense and defense and likely opening the door for a trade. This is really exciting news to me.

    If he is like a young Ariza, he would be great.

    Horford and Bazemore minus Howard? I think that is a huge plus in D'an T system.

    Yeah... I pointed that out sometime ago. The finances are different now, the Rockets would love Parsons at his limited max.

    And Carroll isn't really having a good playoff this year either, I won't be surprised that the Raptors may try to move him soon.

    And now we want to pay his sub in the Hawks 20 mils?

    LOL
