Gay ain't more talented than Embiid, KAT, Wiggins, and plenty others. Are you high?
You're (probably) right; I didn't really even think about the young players when I posted it (we know those cats will eventually get All Star berths). I mainly meant of the guys that have been in the league for a while. I can't think of anyone who has been in the league as long as Gay has who has his amount of talent. I'm also 100% sure you can't name "plenty others" either.

like I said, it didn't hurt wes matthews. he's getting $15M per season and that was prior to the salary cap explosion.
he was 28 when he signed..


dallas lost that gamble.. he numbers dropped.


what are the chances a team does that again?

:what: We weren't forced to do shyt, just like with chandler parsons. Both dumb acquisitions imo

Obviously dumb pick-ups, just like lettin go a' Tyson was a dumb drop.

Not tryna let Cubes off the hook for FA fukk-ups. Just repeatin local sports radio talking heads.

Wrong raptors were not in a playoff position

They traded Rudy gay for Patterson, Vasquez , Salmons and Hayes and the raptors went on a tremendous run and made the playoffs


Yeah I never quite undersood the reasoning behind trading him.

If I remember correctly the raptors were doing pretty well & kyle Lowry, derozan, & Rudy were basically close homies.

Then they just traded him away mid season.:francis:

No thanks :scust:


:russ: It's just for 2 seasons...He's a veteran and also likely gets along with the coach and help implement Atkinsons system...Most importantly you would also get a 1st rd pick that you all could utilize in a package to move up or use it to select another player who is cost controlled...

Just imagine for simply accepting 2 years of Carroll you get your choice of Donavan Mitchell, Harry Giles or even take a swing at a guy like Diallo.
