Tim Conelly and the kronke are bad owners and GM's

Exactly.
In fact in my opinion what Ty is doing is trying to blame others for his bad reputation right now, something that he only brought to himself on his own. Classic addict behaviour.

One is not like the others. Extending Gallo and Chandler were good decisions and a good use of capspace. It raised their value, esp Gallo's as trade assets.

Nonetheless Ty should shut the heck up. Everytime a player disagrees with the firing of a coach -who BTW was pretty problematic himself and often creates problems- he can't vent on social media.
Be a freaking professional- and be a freaking responsible human being too.

 

How about when Quitten trashed Barkley to force a trade to net the Rockets 6 scrub players? It worked out fine for him, but not so much for the Rockets. Players who don't know how to be professional are a risk to the teams that employ them. They might distract the team, not work well with others, clash with coaches, etc. If a player feels free to criticize former teams, he might feel the same about his current team. And when players are perceived to be more risky, they are offered less money. Lawson himself surrendered the guarantee on the last year of his contract to secure the trade to the Rockets because he's managed to make himself look so risky. You think that didn't cost him? Royce White can't get a job because he looks risky. Kobe Bryant drove away all the other talent on his team and cost himself some potential championships (and ironically he thinks he acts like a professional). Sprewell talked himself into early retirement. Marbury was so difficult to get along with, he was run out the league and finished his career in China. Artest was consistently underpaid because of the big risk premium on him. Being unprofessional costs players money.

 

Disagree. Both are average, established players being paid like they have upside. They are in the same arena as Afflalo and Brewer, but are paid 50% more than both.

They would be acceptable (but not "good value") contracts on a team already in contention. Denver is nowhere near that level.

 

Afflalo is underpaid because he has a one year contract and aimed for next years cap rise, and was coming from a horrible year and is a terrible defender.
Do you seriously think that a healthy Gallinari is the same caliber as Brewer? Seriously?
He looks healthy this year so let's see how he does shall we.

 

When healthy Galo is much much much better player than Brewer.

 

Gallinari being healthy is not a given. Over the last 3 seasons, he's played in just 70% of Denver's games. In the games he has played in, he shot only 41% from the floor and 35% from 3.

I don't have any problem putting those players in the same category. They all have their strengths and weaknesses and are about the same age.

 

It's not about what is true or not true, who said what first, or who is rubber and who is glue. It is about a man who obviously has demons getting a new start and moving on.

Raven's quote is very insightful. Seems to me Ty still has problems. I wish him all the luck in the world at putting the past behind him and finding a new non-destructive path.
