    “He’s no Melo” as in he’s no where near the stature of player Melo was. He has to change or he can kiss his career goodbye.

    He's not "Net Neutral" either.

    Negative BPM every year in the league, only two years with positive OWS, WS/48 below .050 in all but one year. A scrub through and through.

    He started for a team that’s been one of the best in the west the last few seasons, and you’re telling me he won’t start for a 22 win team? I hate Dillon Brooks, but I’m just keeping it real

    Yikes. I was defending this move but too many years and way too much money.

    To me it appears we are acquiring better defenders. Seems to be the theme of this off-season. Considering we been absolutely awful the last few years, I like the plan. We aren't convincing superstars to come to this team, not that there are any available that interest us, so I don't think it's a bad plan. I'm concerned about Brooks and his ego on the offensive end, but can't question his defensive intensity. Overpaying was necessary to pry players away, just the reality of our situation.

    Ryan Anderson could at least shoot. And you know with this contract he's garunteed to start every game.
