    You're reading way too hard into the worst possible case scenario regarding this contract.
    Your statement does not even make any sense. I stated parameters that would be required:

    A team with cap space to eat $10+m.
    A team with a need at the 2.
    A team willing to trade assets for an expiring contract ie a playoff team.
    A team willing to part with assets that make sense for the 76ers.

    That is not not "worst case" but rather how any deal makes sense. Worst case would be "there is no one with cap space," "nobody needs a 2," "no playoff teams want him," and "no team is offering something the 76ers want." It doesn't even need to be worst case anyway. If all of those parameters are not met then the deal doesn't happen.

    He's not a young asset on a cheap contract that everyone is going to want.

    If something goes badly, like injury, Philly just walks away from Re in the next summer.

    Now, if something bad happens to Mills ...



    Funnily enough, just like Parker, they'll be better off with him in street clothes.

    Fuzzy, I'm not interested in being in one of your seemingly daily arguments, you pedantic ass. Obviously, worst case scenario implies that Red 's one year deal could be moved should he be a total disaster and/or a team is willing to take him due to any one of the scenarios you highlighted. With the host of different scenarios that can and do play out every year over the NBA season, it isn't out of the question that Red 's one-year deal could be moved just like any of the expirings that are traded every single damn year. It's only been mentioned as a possibility by several different analysts so far who've commented on the deal. I don't need to explain which teams can do so or why. You're smart enough to figure it out. Goodnight, you pedantic .

    You used the word incorrectly. And exactly how was I flouting my education. "Worst case scenario" is a middle school concept. You used it wrong. I suppose if I was dealing with a 4th grader you would have a point.

    And again all of those things are nonstarters. If they don't have cap room they cannot take him. If they don't need a 2 they won't want him. If they don't have anything the 76ers want they won't do the trade etc.

    As for "all the other expirings" that doesn't make sense either. That $23m is commensurate of max deal from past years. There have net been deals like that that have been dumped. And think about it. Teams that are trying to dump salary are close to the cap and trying to free up space. Typically those deals are for half that as clearing a $10m deal at the end of the season is easy once you consider the proration and 25% adjustment. Not so with this whopper.

    So basically all you have to support your claim is that you heard it from "several different analysts." We have already shown how you struggle to apply simple concepts. I don't think you can be counted on for recollections. The Yahoo articles I read on the subject saying it was a good deal for Philly did not say that. And taking things on supposed authority without understanding why is a piss poor way to go through life in general.

    It's extremely beta to put it in your terms.

    Don't even care to read all that. Leave it to Fuzzy to write a thesis on why a small part of one post was incorrect or didn't make sense to him.

    If there is one guy on this forum who probably has zero friends, it's Fuzzy Lumps.

    Inb4 he writes another book on why I'm an awful human being for not responding to his argument that he'll never let go off if I keep responding to him.

    Did you see the he got into with DPG last week? Or his constant in the political forum? Guy will take one small part of your post that is incorrect or that he disagrees with and debate it with you for days until you finally get tired of him.

    a dozen sentences is a thesis to you

    Your response to my OP was only about "worst case" when I did no such thing. The above post covered several topics in 2-3 sentences each. It was too hard for you so I am sorry for that. I will treat you like you have a elementary school education from now on.

    You were right on except the part about you not supporting your argument and it being a book. Unfortunately that is all you had.

    Let's change topics. You're trying to pile on in creating a panic about the Mills resigning claiming that it is going to cost Murray minutes. This makes no sense to me.

    If Murray plays well he will get the starting job. Patty has been a bench player his whole career.

    The only way I see that happening is a worst case scenario from DJ's perspective. He would have to play poorly enough that he could not beat out Patty and then Parker would need to come back on time and play at a high level.

    Even then I see Murray getting the 2014 Joseph role who got steady minutes.

    Found something you might be interested in, Fuzzy Lumps. You should really look into it before you give yourself an aneurysm.

    you should make a troll clique and try to marginalize me next. Make sure to make Lindsay Lohan your avatar though.

    I get that you don't like me but this is just sad.

    Oh what am I saying? I'm sure things would just go something like this:

    Rented friend: "HI, Fuzzy Lumps! My name is Jerry! I'll be yo-...

    Lumpy: "Greetings and salutations, Jerry. Before we begin, please outline the parameters of why exactly I should consider you the optimal choice to accompany me as my acquaintance throughout the day during my daily activities which consist of watching C-Span and arguing on www.spurstalk. com. If you cannot muster up the mental for ude to do so, I'd request that we disengage our transaction as I cannot allow myself to be in the company of a plebian of such mental inep ude".

    Rented friend: "I see why you called..."

    Well while that sock mets down does anyone want to argue that Mills is going to cost Murray minutes?

    I don't see it but I am interested if anyone can make a decent case of it happening.

    Murray will get between 20 to 28mins a game, which is a good spot for the first four months.

    Yeah that is what sounds ideal to me. Both get in the neighborhood of 25 mpg until Tony come back and then reevaluate.

    I don't check the political forums... but I have seen the endless arguments. I want no part of it.

    With Murray's size they could get away with playing both of them at the same time. Patty cannot guard league 2's.

    Get ready for a 4000 word response about why you're wrong and a total piece of if you're not ready to stretch the argument out over four pages.

    Please outline the parameters of why coffee is the optimal choice for consumption at this point in time rather than other caffeinated beverages.
