People are spoiled by Harden who was a max player but would have been paid more if the max salary didn't exist. The "max" ranges depending on...
Cruz is incredibly cheap given his production. That's a guy who's finished top-10 MVP in 5 of the past 7 seasons. He's averaged 4.5 WAR in that...
If contender means being as good as the Lakers, Clippers, and Nets. No. But the other 27 teams can't ALL tank. Someone else fills out the...
That's super interesting. The Nets interest is obvious, and it's easy to see why Drummond would enjoy playing with that team and contending......
Well sure, if they get a 27 year old guy averaging 19 points/15 boards, that will certainly help. Why would Cleveland just hand them a guy like...
The eye test to me shows Gordon is great one-on-one but isn't as much of a help defender as Oladipo is. And defensive rebounds are somewhat a...
I like EGo, but there's no way he provides the same production. Vic gives you 5 boards and 5 assists - Gordon gives you 2 and 2. Oladipo also...
If he's the guy who came up with using cameras to steal signs, his firing seems like something long overdue....
To be fair, Luhnow made a lot of moves during his tenure, both during the offseason and at the trade deadline. Click doesn't have that resume to...
Phoenix is exactly one game better than the Rockets so far, despite spending the first part of the season with moping Harden. Chris Paul is 35....
You've pointed out 5 players in your "since 2011" group. Of those, Davis already forced his way out. Beal is next. Luka, Young, and Embiid...
There have been no "home grown" championships since the 2015 Warriors (selecting Curry #7 in 2009). This is a free agent, player empowerment...
It's way too early to determine what the potential is of a group of guys who haven't played together. This season, I think they could be a 5 or 6...
The Rockets haven't been truly bad since 2002, when Francis sat out with migraines and we drafted Yao. This team has too much talent to be top-4...
Lol at trying to declare "FACT" like Michael Scott declared "BANKRUPTCY!" Eye test says that Simmons is such a negative minus on offense, I can't...
Semien's 2019 seems like a clear one year aberration in an otherwise .700 OPS type of career. If I was looking for a bat, I'd much rather sign a...
History has shown that catchers don't hold their value in their 30s. I think that's why Realmuto didn't get paid more, and you think it's a fluke...
It's like all of baseball is aware of how catchers perform in their 30s. And then priced that into their offers.
It does seem like $200m/7 is a bit of an overpay, but not a crazy offer. I'd rather they sign him at $200/8, which would be 25/year thru his age...
We all know Morey by now... those picks would 100% have been weirdly protected for years out, with the protection changing year after year. No...
