    Yeah. I guess Kyle deserves his 24 million dollars after all.

    Not exactly the best fit IMO, but put a hot Smith and Harrington out there and you could potentially bury any team in the league in a hurry.

    but put a cold Smith and Harrington out there and you could get buried by any team in the league in a hurry...

    The both can go game after game shooting brick after brick....but they both can catch fire

    How do you know they are not trying? Are you you behind the scenes? Are you one of the front office people?

    How do you know they aren't trying? And do you know what sets a team back 5 years...? It's giving mediocre players $34 million contracts. The absolute worst thing Morey could have done is make an impulse signing just because Bosh fell through. We're not going to sign someone just to sign someone.

    nice pickup. kmart got injured so theyre bringing some insurance. harrington though barely plays defense is a stretch PF although 6.8m/yr is a tad bit expensive.

    He is probably worth the MLE because he can give you 40 points on a given night but that is a lot of years, I hope Denver has a team option in year 4.

    lol @ someone being mad the rockets didnt go after harrington.
    i think some fans would be more happy if teams changed their entire roster every season.
