Better than 2 of the three top guards on our depth chart

So we're comparing players vs what's on our roster? So Luke Walton GOAT?

Isn't that kind of the idea when you're trying to make roster decisions for your team?

Not when you're comparing them against other potential players you could bring in as well.

Should we just take the first SF who walks down the street solely because they're better than Aminu?

Yea a 23 year old PG averaging 18/6/3/1.5 and shoots a decent percentage


Go look at advances stats and compare them against other PGs making 12mill+.

They are not super.

Debatable. For one, Greivis is better.

This isn't MLB. Salary is a huge part of a player's value in the NBA.

I've been told that the Pelicans have legitimate interest in Jennings, but the inverse is what's in question.

I don't hate Jennings, but I'm 90% sure that whatever he ends up getting will be an overpayment, which is why I would shy away from him.

You can pretty much make that 100%. People like danman look at the pretty numbers and want him on their team but he is one of the most inefficient guards in the entire league. He'll get his 8 figure salary and that is too much IMO.

Imagine a world where they S/T Jennings @ 4/43 for Gordon, then win Tyreke for 4/35.

Biggest meltdown ever?

Most unlikeable team in the NBA?

Gee what a unique wish list for an NBA player. This shite is getting old. When you are a small market like us it appears you build through the draft a la OKC or you suck.

That would be one of the most exciting 10 or 11 seeds to ever play basketball.

Most of the small markets are just farm teams for the bigger markets anyway.

He's a career 39% shooter.

Unless you guarantee he cuts back on his shots

If the two of them are comparable, then why throw a big contract at Jennings when Vasquez will get far less?
