When the coach has to talk himself into believing that the highest paid player on the team isn't faking an injury, I think there might be a problem.
Good news guys, suns management Is expecting to be right in the mix and fighting to be middle of the pack this year.
I'm glad our long term goal is to be middle of the pack 1st round fodder.
Should have traded him to the suns.

That is the worst place to be in the NBA.

Define fit? He "tries" to follow his man on defence so he can run on offence.
He doesn't go for steals, rebounds, or blocks.
I think the worst part is they're saying, with a straight face, young talent, and wes johnson, in the same sentence. And expect us to believe it.
Feels bad man.

Not even worth the Mid Level.
So they paid Fields and Derozan a combined $65 million? What a joke of a franchise.
his stifling defense and will to win were really on display
he should have been paid max money for his BBIQ alone

That DeRozan contract is atrocious.

I'm struggling to see where DeRozan can go to make that contract worth it. Guards without any guard skills at 23 usually don't become high level players.
This is the sort of deal that should seal up Collangelo getting fired.
Thats your upside, torronto.

Naw...he will learn how to shoot, dribble, defend, and more now that he's paid.

If the two Brewers are still eating...
Played like a puppy and his one good move he bricked off the backboard. He will be useful once they actually play the opposite of the defense they played last night and run a bit.
That competitive balance!

But they aren't getting $10M a year. Plus, they can at least play defense.

Lmao....
that move looked so good...then it went like 4 feet over the basket and off the opposite side of the backboard. dude looked nervous, im not worried. the key to this season is doc getting them to gel, this team is athletic as shit, it would be extremely disappointing to see them continue to play like they did last night,

You realize what Jrue Holiday and Evan Turner are thinking right now, right?
CA-CHING!
This fucking league.
Competitive balance! Gotta stop big market teams from making good decisions and then that new luxury tax is supposed to bite big markets in the ass o wait...

I have to say Mark Cuban was right about not paying big money to non-stars. These teams are screwed. They won't improve and will be first round exit teams for years. I'm confident we'll be able to keep Collision and Beaubois for fairly cheap. Then we can wait for a real star to be a free agent.

So, why is DeMar getting paid more than Garbagenani?
Blackace

But they don't have upside, freakish athletic ability, or can jump out of a gym vertical

Evan won't get shit as long as Doug is around. He'd enter the room during negotiations right when its about to be signed and rip the contract up in front of Turner's face. and go" get some skills first chump".
Jrue?
gonna get paaaaaaaid.
Rodeo Clown

I got you.
The first quarter of the season last year, he shot something like 40% from 3, then barely hit anything the rest of the year even though he kept trying. He was definitely better when Bargs when in there as the primary option, if that means anything. I wouldn't pay to keep this guy. The league might be struggling to find good two guards, but finding a DeRozan equivalent (athletic wing that can jump out of the gym, that can't shoot, bad handle, so-so defense when he tries) for a fraction of the price shouldn't be impossible. They're buying his upside, I guess. But they've seen a few years of him now, they should know better.
Although he apparently has a post up game now that'll be his primary scoring option? Or something? That's the the Toronto papers are writing, but I'll believe it when I see it.

derozan sucks and so does Bryan Colangelo. lol raptors.
seriously, derozan sucks at nearly every aspect of the game. he has zero potential. his only worth is putting up 20 points on bad efficiency, lousy defense, and zero playmaking on shitty 20 win teams. he's bargnani bad.
