He's a negative asset the moment he signs a new max deal.
If Lavine were healthy do you believe he is a negative asset? I was wrong, he's already started his new extension, $37 million this year and $49 in 2026-27. Before his season was derailed by injuries he was talked up as one of the players the Lakers would target. I didn't really see people talking about him as a negative contract like I did with CJ.

It was always understood that CJ would net something of value in return.
Maybe amongst the 30 GMs in the league, but I know the NBA twitter chatter seemed to view him very negatively because of his contract and decline in play due to a few injury plagued seasons. I know when he was kicked around here as a possible target way before that trade deadline, people talked about not wanting him and needing assets to take him.
However, my basic theme that I'm trying to get across is "Be careful what you wish for" and "The grass isn't always greener." Saying it's time to trade a player or fire a coach is one thing, Finding a replacement that's an actual improvement is another. If your reasoning is "Anything is better than this." that's basically asking the basketball gods to smite you, and the rest of us by extension. And I'm not saying that's your reasoning, just speaking generally because there are a lot of people, including myself, that don't think BI is going to work out long term with Zion.

He was healthy for a time this season. And all of the pods from Lowe to Windhorst, etc....talked about how Chicago has been shopping him all season long, and no one wants him.
quote:I could be wrong but I don't recall people saying CJ was a negative contract until the extension was signed. We gave up a very high level role player in Josh Hart and a 1st, so he clearly was not a negative value contract. i don't recall anyone whose opinion you value saying POR would have to give us a 1st to send us CJ or anything like that.

quote:But again, remember, he signed an extension. That IMO is when the concerns about contract popped up. Those are wrong too lol, but I digress.
