Repped. This is what I was trying to convey. Yep, had to rep for a good, lengthy debate even though we're not on the same page.
First of all, on the basis of my argument, why would I do a "sign and trade" mid-season? Since you tried to call me out for using "confusing...
Teams don't want 5 or 6 unproven young players at the same time. It's much better to have 2 borderline all star level players + 2/3 unproven...
Not really. We have Asik to shut down the paint now. Millsap won't stop elite 4s, but as long as he just lets them shoot jumpers, we have a great...
Actually if Josh Smith was in Millsap's position in Utah, I would go for Josh Smith over Millsap. Josh Smith is more athletic and can shoot the 3...
This is partially by design and the make up of the Jazz. Al Jefferson one of the best low post scores in the game, so it doesn't make sense to put...
Sorry, forgot all about this. It does negatively decrease my perceived value of a mid-season Millsap trade, but not by much.
You should probably re-read what I wrote. I specifically put Asik + Millsap + other assets, meaning D-Mo, T. Jones, G. Smith + picks. Asik +...
Millsap has been in the league for 7 years, so Greg Smith is not a good comparison. Millsap was playing behind Boozer in his first few...
First of all, great post buddy. If feel like Millsap (with cap hold) + diminshed assets is far greater than cap space with more assets. I'm...
No, I'd rather have Lebron James.
How am I contradicting myself? Utah has no leverage. If Millsap doesn't want to sign with a particular team, then he can walk for free and Utah...
This will not happen. Howard would have just became a FA and signed with Brooklyn. Why didn't he do it? Because of money. Having the option of...
Wait, did you read my post? You don't think it's an advantage to be able to package Millsap + Asik for a better player? What about potentially...
Not true. Morey's strategy is being in the best position to aquire another star. By getting Millsap, we can potentially package Asik + Millsap +...
If given a 4-5 year contract I'd say about $10 million per year, just because the market probably won't be too hot for him. Most of the big money...
I'm not sure if Utah will want "too much". They can either lose him for nothing in the summer or sign and trade him, which puts more salary on...
I often hear this response, but I have already provided advanced stats showing that Millsap > Aldridge, which is the 2nd star many people want....
I think we have around $7-9 million in cap space, so we can absorb a large chuck of his salary without giving them equal salary in return. The...
The debate for which power forward to acquire in the off-season has been discussed numerous times before, but getting one mid-season is absolutely...
