Instead of overpaying Asik like we did I would have rather overplayed a center who won't destroy this team on offense, and I mean destroy bc that's what Asik does. Give me Koufas, Lopez, Kanter, Tyson chandler to name a few. I would have prefered to over pay any of those guys instead of giving Asik miney to sit on the damn bench in the 4th quarter.

None of those were realistic options given our cap situation even if we would have let Asik walk.

Uhhh. Aside from Koufas, I'll take Asik's contract over those listed every single day of the week and I wouldn't have to think twice about it.

Kanter is getting the fricking max baw. frick THAT. He's the worst defensive center in the entire league. GTFO with that shite.

Lopez is also making millions/year more than Asik and while, better offensively, he's much much much weaker defensively and on the boards. And still makes significantly more than Asik. frick THAT.

Chandler is also making about 1-2 million more than Asik. I'd be happy with chandler, but he's also 32 fricking years old and no way in hell would I want him on a 4 year deal with his injury history. frick THAT.


Koufos would be ok. He's slightly worse than asik, and he makes slightly less. IDK how we would have gotten him though without give up assets in a S&T. Giving up assets is not worth Kosta Koufos.
