AD hates playing at the 5 even tho they are better in Gentry system.

I see someone offering a max to Boogie, NBA FOs are desperate.


Doctors have done studies on this stuff, achilles injuries are grim for NBA players

http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0363546513490659

Conclusion:
The NBA players who returned to play after repair of complete Achilles tendon ruptures showed a significant decrease in playing time and performance. Thirty-nine percent of players never returned to play.

I would not feel comfortable giving him a max under any scenario. He's only 27 so that might help things but I'm not optimistic

I feel bad for him. But i cant be mad at the pelicans:manny:
- im sure he can get a max contract from the nets, or orlando magic at this point.
- but the pels would be fools to max him out with the free agent class coming out the next 2 years
