Yeah--that is a steal. The guys who are FAs, this year, are getting screwed--last year=pot of gold--this year= bucket of slop -- nm - Flavorize Jul 12, 09:46 6
- Yeah. Poor guy. Playing 17 minutes a game for only $7 million. - pmb Jul 12, 09:49 4
  - Part of it is the difference in rosters. NBA teams have a maximum of 15, whereas MLB is 24 and NFL is 53. - David Jul 12, 09:52 3
    - No, I get it, but it's still kind of absurd to me. -- nm - pmb Jul 12, 09:54 2
      - Oh, I am with you on that. We are paying Bazemore $17 million a year, and he lost his starting job with us. - David Jul 12, 10:06
      - I agree--it's absurd, and that absurdness will make the next NFL bargaining hell. -- nm - Flavorize Jul 12, 10:02
- Seriously -- nm - JJ Reddick Jul 12, 09:48
So... a less offensive Dwight Howard? -- nm - Strongbad Jul 12, 09:39 4
- That sounds about right. -- nm - David Jul 12, 09:42 3
  - Dennis might have to be your version of Westbrook next year. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 12, 09:48 2
    - I think he's an above average player but I'm dubious he'll become a star. - David Jul 12, 09:55 1
      - I expect him to put up really good numbers next year, simply due to a lack of other above average players. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 12, 09:56
That must be why he is on to his third team in three years. -- nm - Spawn Jul 12, 09:38 1
- So was Demarre when we signed him. - David Jul 12, 09:39
