Old man Gearon once mentioned running the team on the cheap.   He was outting his good buddy Belkin, however, he was not against keeping rookie contracts until one of them pans out.   Most owners want the team to be  either:

1.  Exciting enough to keep the fans interest. 

or 

2.   Good enough to exact the fans loyalty. 

&

Able to keep rookie contracts on the books.  Because regardless of if you are exciting or good, you can have rookie contracts that you can use to replace the high dollar stars if need be. 

What they don't want is mediocrity.

Yeah.  And it's not that Farthorst has no sources.  Its that his sources may have questionable motives.

Houston and Atlanta actually had a deal for Capela but Cam Whitmore falling was pretty much murder she wrote to that. At the end of the day, these teams will cap space will miss on players and look to trades. 

Can confirm this. Thats why I said watch out for houston yesterday. They were debating cam and amen at 4 when he fell to 20 it was all she wrote on that deal

another reason we should have taken Whitmore at 15. It's possible Kobe would have still been there at 20.
