[Marvel]

How much does horford make? Atl can't pay him more than him

He is just as valuable as Horford is to that team.

Nah not even close. Truthfully though there are really only a handful of max level players in the league, but Josh isn't one of them. If he finds a team dumb enough to give him that then hey Won't be a max player here

This is said EVERYTIME but it only takes ONE dumb ass GM for him to get a max deal. And there are shytty teams like Charlotte with money to spend who mike make this a reality.

12 mil

I'd pay him and put a clause in his contract that voids that shyt if he takes more than 5 jumpers outside of 15 ft in a season.

This. He is a very good player, but he is not great. I like the effort he puts in though. He would be a great fit for a team like OKC, if they could have gotten rid of that Perkins contract

Iblocka
J-smoove
Durantula
K-mart
Russy

They could sign some minimum players in their rotation. That line up would be

don't want him. I'd rather move KD to the 4 than bring in Josh Smith. Plus we already got Russy who gets his & "takes away shots" from KD, don't need Smith firing bad shots on top of that.

Max players either sell out arenas or lead teams deep into the playoffs. He foes neither.

“I feel like I’m a max player,” Smith said Friday.

And yes, that is the first time he has said that.

“I feel I bring a lot to the table. I have a lot of versatility. For what I do and what I give this ball club, I feel like I’m worth it.”

The Hawks have given one max contract in their history. It turned Joe Johnson into a very rich man (six years, $123.6 million) and the Hawks into a punch line. So which way do you think the wind might be blowing on this?

Granted, in the new collective bargaining agreement, Smith's max deal would be nearly as high as Johnson's: about $94 million over five years. But it still could give the organization reason to balk.

Smith again: “There shouldn’t be any hesitation. I’m Josh Smith, I’m not anybody else. I ‘m not Michael Jordan, I’m not LeBron James, I’m not Brook Lopez. I’m Josh Smith. You can’t look at what might’ve happened with another person. Let’s say Joe. You can’t say, ‘I’m skeptical of giving another person that’ because of whatever they feel like happened."

If you were waiting for the line in the sand, there it is.

he's not even the best PF on his own team. How he gonna say he's a max player?

 

[Reggie]

I see where he's coming from when comparing his game and numbers to a Roy Hibbert's or even Brook Lopez's. But they are not true max players and neither is Josh. But if somebody gives him max dollars then more power to him.

4 years 48 mil sounds about right

 

[ThaBoyBam]

He's not, but some team will cough up the loot.

I'm not saying he's right, but he ain't wrong.
