re: Why is Holiday at anything over $20 million so unpalatable?

The eye test tells me he hasn't played elite defense this year but he's right behind Beverley in DRPM

The eye test tells me he's one of the best defenders in the league. He has consistently played great defense on bigs when he switches. Ive seen him stop Gasol and Porzingas in the post multiple times. There are only a handful of guys under 6'6" that can do that.

He's not $30m. I'd walk from that. He's worth $20 on a longer deal, maybe $25 on a shorter deal. His defense is great and his offense can be at times. Too often his offense is non existent, and he sometimes let's his shitty offensive games affect his defense.
I'm hoping we can get him for 4/90 at the most.

I think if you can get a Bledsoe in a trade, or Rubio, or even Mills with the MLE, jrue will be worth the money.
