Danny better be sure he will seriously mature as a player for that salary range. I don't get the Ellis/Jennings fascination. At least Jennings was 23 last season so the prospect of development is better, but at that salary you are paying for thy development without it happening yet.

[Watchman]

Danny, please don't pay this chucker $12 million. He ain't worth half that amount.

[DrReality]

Is he worth that much? Can we pay him that if we want to sign Bynum?

[GameTime]

So much for being cheaper than Monta.

[BudBall]

Wish something will happen already

[RWF]

Get this done already.

[Cthulhu]

Sign Teague!

I'm sure there are one or two moves to still be made and so its just a matter of when.

At the same $$ amount I'd prefer Jennings over Ellis simply because of ability to become a better player, but none of them (Teague included) are worth as much as Al Horford. At $12 million they can kick rocks as far as I'm concerned.

This is going to suck if Jennings gets that deal cuz Teague will use it as leverage.

Good deal! Now that Twitter button is gone since we don't really need it anyway.

Teague aint worth over 8 million a year.

Agreed! I don't think that either Ellis or Jennings are either.

I will say one thing for Jennings. He has been playing next to Monta for a couple years and thus impacted his game negatively. Another thing is that he's never had a developing type coach in Bud. He's still super young. And we have talent like Horford and Millsap as well as outside shooters who spread the floor like Korver and Jenkins. Again I'm skeptical, but I think I'd take a chance on him over Teague at this point.

How much of a hypocrite could you be my god. You say a you don't want an ineficiant chucker, you say players won't just "change their stripes" changing teams. I promise you Jennings will come to Atlanta and shoot sub 40% like his CAREER average. Monta has a history of good shooting so that's why I can get behind signing him.
