Sure, that can be absolutely true, but it's not what I was talking about... Saying "a limit of Budball is that 2 and 3 are equivalent but Baze has played Better at the 2 than at the 3" is, per se, a contradiction.

If you agree (as you just did) that the 2 and 3 play interchangeably in Bud-system, how can you say Baze is better at the 2 than at the 3? It's a contradiction. Once again, positions (not roles, positions) do NOT matter when you attack.

Hype fuel at no cost.

Because of the falling dollar/pound exchange rate?

Guess you did not get it right.

Oh sure, of course Schlenk should have said "we won't offer Millsap a contract" before te begin of FAgency, that would have certainly enhanced Paul's value. Nba trades and off-season involve a good deal of strategic behavior.

*Their

30M per year for 2 years and an option for the third in Denver a bad deal? -They add that contract in a cap filled with young players in rookie scale; -They have signed the perfect on the court matchup with they're designed franchise player Jokic; -They have added a fantastic veteran player with excellent work ethic and locker room experience, something always valuable; -They did not jeopardize neither their long run flexibility (many of their rookie contracts will expire along with Sap's) nor their short run's (example, they can still let Gallo walk, sign and trade with Atlanta and add a 1-2 guard like Hill which is a perfect complement for their backcourt). Sounds like a smart move for me.

Quite likely, since they've paid him a couple of 2nd rounders.

Wow, Phoenix made an incredible series of terrible decisions in the last 5 yrs and still they seem to attract big FAs (at least they can get interviews): LMA 2 years ago, 'Sap and Griffin now. I guess they can even ideally evolve into something like: Rubio-Booker-George-Sap/griffin-Chandler if Boston keeps loafing around PGeorge without a serious move. Minnie: Bledsoe Phoenix: Rubio + Patton + Filler (Aldrich or Hill) and Indiana: Contract Filler (Aldrich/Hill) + 1st pick 2018 + Chriss/Bender + TJ Warren + Patton. Phoenix: George If they're bold enough I don't see many better offers for George.

Sure it's not bread and butter, but I guess that's the sort of problem you want to have, I mean, he's still Chris Paul.

100% with you.

Yeah, for one year maybe... Let me remind you which teams have been consistently drafting in the top 7/8 in the last 5/6 years.

Of course we all judge people around the franchise all the time, but thing is, I don't express my final statement without a bigger picture.

At least you're fun. Oh, wait...

You might be the bad guy around here, but just because you deliberately want to see the worst in what's next. You judging Schlenk on his first two weeks is like you being judged for this post only: trust me, you don't want that to happen.

That's wwhat has to be evaluated...

Because there were no alternatives.

You can't say Prince right now, a new NBA player always needs time to adjust his game to the new level, especially playing to get playoff spots. Just have a look to the difference between rookies and sophomores during the summer league.

Bud already said he's willing to post him up as early as possible in the shotclock, which is the situation in which DH was most efficient during his career (especially in Orl). I've seen more stupid ideas, let's put it this way.

Yeah but that's like a normal consequence when your real leader (Westbrook) is not your "technical" leader (KD).

Ex post statements are worth what they are.

I always saw KD liking that iso-system. He was even a Scott Brooks supporter as their coach

Jones doesn't add a single valuable thing to our roster (given that we're fuller than full). D-Mo would be really good, but: 1. is he healthy? 2. We need to clear cap space (a lot of it) 3. Houston is very likely to match almost any offer

Please, please stop being stupid and writing stupid things. Do you really believe Bud loves Korver unconditionally, he's his daughter and that's why he plays/starts? Again, please... If you just could read adv stats, it's not so difficult. I agree he may play less minutes/not start in order to focus and concentrate his game in a shorter time span or to make him play against 2nd units which are usually more distracted, but for basketball' s sake, he's one of our best solutions, not one of the major problems.
