    Staying would be much more than fine.

    But I'm thinking the "loyalty" stuff on Instagram has more depth than we all realize or can even appreciate.

    This roster has been turned over EVER season since Harden has been here. And this roster has even fewer familiar faces than it has in last 8 years.

    Familiarity breeds comfort, PJ's happiness is more important than FO can comprehend, or maybe they do comprehend and just dont give a rip.

    That is part of it, but not all of it.....teams still came after Lebron.....

    The other issue is his play style of ball dominance, there are doubts as to whether you can win with him as the lead dog.

    This seriously the best shape he has been in years. You can tell he has a chip on his shoulder.

    If I’m Stone I’m going to PJ and I’m placing a basketball infront of him - when you dunk the ball back to back and I’ll give you a new contract

    He gets paid almost 1000 times than an ordinary Joe. So this is like a $500 gift to your good friend. Still too much for my taste. But nothing ridiculous

    PJ Tucker & Scottie have NOTHING in common. Scottie would be a max guy.

    I think you're missing the point.

    MJ didn't get his boy an extension.

    Nothing to do with how much money being exchanged.

    It's about using your considerable leverage to make your boy happy and appreciated.

    Im gonna say it again, nothing Stone has done has been impressive. He traded Roco to get Woods, all these players that we signed are what they are, minimum players.

    I hear ya, but time maybe up for Tucker. Old, small & slow. Not a winning combination for a fat NBA contract.
