    Not surprising. Asik and Parsons are two of the best contracts in the league.

    No way we give them both up. I prefer keeping them both over trading them for overrated smith!!

    I really really really really don't want Smith now.
    Smith is a good player, but he's not great and he will never be great. He thinks he is great himself though. Max player wah wah. Forget it. He's not a good shooter, and not a good banger inside. We have an extremely talentet young TRUE pf now. He has an extremely high motor, the sky is the limit for this guy. Many predicted him to be the second best prospect in this years draft. How can you possibly want Smith, when we can develop this guy, have cap room and be great for many years to come.

    Say NO to Smith, go after DH in the summer.

    Then we are contenders for real.

    Josh Smith is cool but definitely not worth max salary...

    I'd rather keep assets than waste them on a pending FA.

    It's the era of superteams. All the stars want to team up. Get Smith to get Dwight.

    What I don't understand is, if they don't deal out either Lin or Asik. How would they maintain the cap room to keep the option of a Dwight signing/S&T.
