Damn, that's a Parker'esque deal
Holy , what a horrible signing at that price. Good lord.
LDN gon' get paid.
Damn, that's a Parker'esque deal
Yeah... Green is going to get paid. I think Portland just took themselves out of the Green sweepstakes though.
This isn't nearly as bad a parker. He's 24, lengthy, athletic, excels at defense. Dude isn't the worse at 3's or fts either.
Looking more and more like Danny Green is a goner.![]()
Too soon to tell lol.. have patience..
The rumors of a below average player like Afflalo getting 10+ mil are frightening, tbh..
Aminu shoots lime 27 percent from 3pt range, averages like 5 pts and 5 boards a game, and is a tweener with no real position.
This contract is absurd.
Aminu is the new Chris Wilcox/Hakim Warrick/Anthony Randolph/every young, athletic player that every fan of every team wants to acquire during every off-season, tbh..
This deal is essentially the new MLE.
Ahhh I remember Anthony Randolph.. "if only he would reach his potential"
There's always the long, athletic defender that shows flashes, and every fan thinks, "my team will allow him to reach his potential"..there's probably like a 10% chance that the player in question will learn how to shoot consistently or reach anywhere close his potential, based on the history if this league..
True, but if his defense is actually legit, paying someone the MLE to be your primary wing defense isn't a crazy idea. I agree, I wouldn't do this deal. It's a combo of climate making this deal not to bad while at the same time it being ridiculous that a player like Aminu gets this much money. Not mutually exclusive![]()
I think Portland is in semi-tank mode, tbh..makes sense to take a flier on a player like Aminu, they don't really have much to lose..
Yeah this deal isn't great, but it's not terrible either.
The Knicks giving Afflalo $12-13 million/year...now THAT is ing awful.
This. It's so ing idiotic
If Afflalo actually gets anywhere near that, it would immediately become one of the worst contracts of my lifetime, tbh..
Phil is pretty stupid
Only side note is that if this is POR tanking and LMA is not going back, Spurs have a great shot. I don't think that's the case in POR's mind though. I think they like him and feel he replaces Batum, especially if Batums shot is broken like last year.
I don't think they're actually tanking, I meant "semi-tanking" as in playing younger, riskier starters, and knowing they could miss the playoffs in the West..
Plumlee and Aminu, for example..a lot of potential, but probably downgrades from Lopez and Batum(assuming Batum of last year was an anomaly)..
Lillard
Henderson
Aminu
Aldridge
Plumlee
still makes the playoffs in the West, but probably around an 8th seed
Without Aldridge, they miss the playoffs, but at least they have some young players to try and build around(Lillard, McCollum, Plumlee, Aminu)
Danny is getting at least $13M per season now.
This is so much worse
So we have established Green as at least a $12 million a year player in this climate. He's gone, the Spurs won't pay it.
RIP Wing Stop
lol baseline bum he got close to that
