Batum is $20 million at best, and to me, he's not that big of a game changer to spend that much on him.


Even if you agreed that he was worth the Max it's still not a slam dunk move. Giving Batum max money means you're back to no depth like we were to start Monty's last season. You just gave up Gordon/Ryno/Ajinca to get him and if Batum is going to be a point forward of sorts you might trade Tyreke too.

That being said Batum fits Gentry's official wish list better than anyone else on the market, and if Demps is the GM we know he's not afraid to sacrifice depth and roster balance to acquire talent.

I'd rather add Marvin Williams if we are talking hornets FA

He's better top to bottom than RA and won't sniff the contract Anderson gets
