Some people complained about PJ Tucker's MLE signing as well. There are always complainers, even for minimum signings.
FYI, NO's pick was traded to Memphis as part of the Jonas Valanciunas trade so Williams was actually selected and will be developed by the Grizzlies.
I preferred Olynyk, but he played the best basketball of his career while here. If we paid him $12M/yr and he regressed to his pre-Houston career...
I think with Lonzo going to the Bulls, New Orleans might be the only team desperate enough to trade for John Wall.
I like Holmes a lot. He'll command more salary than that, IMO.
I can't even think of who we'd want to use the NT-MLE on this year.
Our only leverage was if he wanted to go to a good team that was over the cap. Once he chose Detroit SNT was unfortunately no longer an option.
He's played 11 games in two seasons and just had surgery again on the same leg that kept him out. He'll be out a good chunk of next season as well.
I really liked Nwaba. Glad he's back. Hope he can improve his three point shot.
Their revenge for us signing Wood.
I'm not even sure I like Wood at C. I felt that Olynyk was a great addition to the frontcourt, relieving Wood from having to play C full-time, and...
I'm not a huge fan of Theis, but $9M seems like fair value. Where would it be better spent? We have a glut of guards and wings. Theis can play...
I'd rather have Olynyk, but Theis is a better defender, could be cheaper, and came from overseas like our rookie big men. Could be a good mentor...
I'm not questioning JC's potential to be a good player. Smoothie said that JC's only real job is to get Green to sign a max extension four years...
I disagree completely. You don't waste first round picks on appeasing a star player, that's what an end of the bench signing is for. The goal of...
I love the Garuba pick, but his fit will be determined by how reliable his outside shot is. He shot 31.5% from deep this season on 111 attempts....
Trend? I thought Garuba was the only acclaimed defender of the four draft picks.
Being a fan of this franchise has been a roller coaster the past few years. The highs of being one game from the finals, the lows of the abysmal...
She's no Shelby.
What's the record for number of rookies on one team? I'd like to take a flyer on Vrenz but we already have so many young players to develop.
