Fitting someone who “slammed” the over on the rockets win total thinks a average guard like FVV is a top 20 player in the league.
Also ranks top 20 on any metric that measure total impact on winning like WAR, RAPTOR, LEBRON etc But I’m not surprised casuals like yourself just look at the fg%.
Hahahahahhahhhah casuals. Ok Mr. I pounded the over on the rockets wins. Nice one. Glad you lost. You definitely deserved it with your stupidity. Funny what was this top 20 player doing after 82 games. Oh he was in Cancun
You know what would be f'd up? Raptors give Fred VanVleet a 4 year Max and trade him to Philly for Harden on his one year deal. Rockets left with their d!ck in their hand.
Doncic Giannis Butler AD Lebron Curry Morant KD Booker Embiid Tatum Fox SGA Jokic PG Harden Mitchell Sabonis Ant Lillard Jaylen Brown There's easily at least 20 better players. Haven't even included the perenially injured or head cases like Zion, Kawhi, KP or Kyrie who when on court, are clearly superior. There's at least another 10-15 in the Ingram, Lavine, Trae, Siakim, Brunson category that people can easily argue as better than Fvv.
You know who else was in Cancun? Luka, Kyrie, Dame, Sga, Haliburton. Your casual ass probably has never thought you’ve been wrong in your life that’s why you are getting so tight over the first time you’ve seen someone wrong over a sports bet.
I would wait, a vet PG is available at the trade deadline, just roll with what they have. Try to get Lopez, try to get a slightly normal wing not Dillon.
Oh it isn’t just the sports bet. That’s just something I’ve laughed at for awhile. You simply just have some of the worst takes around here. Just add FVV is a top 20 player in the league to it. Epitome of a poser that acts like “they know ball”.
Glad you follow me like that but I don’t even know who you are. I have no clue what “takes” you have.
We have already established that $40m/year is an overpay. It is the necessary price tag to lure a player of this caliber to a poverty franchise like we have been the last three years. Also more importantly, for the next two years there’s nothing better to spend that money on anyways. Are we crying for Silver and Tilman? This does not impact our long term cap space whatsoever. Also the two other 6 footers you mentioned were HOFers, mvp candidates, and actually absolutely worthy of $40m/year.
There is no manual that says the borderline All Star player has to be a PG lmao. The focus is for young players to hone their craft and not for the babysitter to take over. I think some fans get their heads turned and lose focus. And it began with the 34 year old Harden comeback. I agree to disagree ......that 2 years are nothing, you cannot turn a culture around in 1 or 2 years. That is just my 2 cents, just leave it there.
There is massive difference between paying him $40M/year for 2 years versus 4. You're getting his age 29 and age 30 seasons. FVV on that contract is very tradeable. You aren't stuck with that salary, you can offload it easily in the following offseason. As fans, it's not worth it to get too hung up on whether the guy is getting paid "too much" or whether he's "worth it". It's not our money getting spent. The only reason to be concerned about the dollar amount is if it impedes our flexibility to make better moves, which this would not.
What other borderline allstar players are available? Can’t turn around the culture in 1 or two years? if you don’t spend that money on winning players and run with the current kids on the roster you know what will happen in two years? Another 20-30 win season, without getting a high pick back for it this time. You know how to turn around a losing culture? Sign winning players, then the kids can learn how to play.
https://www.spotrac.com/nba/minneso...nley signed a 3,dead cap value of $24,360,000. Here is the Conley contract. He helped both the Jazz and stabilized the Timberwolves.
That is very debatable. Just because Ferntits want to win 40 games NOW does not mean the team has to sell its soul to 2 year rentals.
