Korver is trash

I like Korver with our system, but DL has proved that his negotiation skills suck. 2 draft picks and a guy well North of 30 for a 37 year old. DL ended up looking like the guy who bought a cool really old sports car and was talked into financing it for two years at a 30% interest rate. If that was the going price, we should have looked at other lots.
If that cool really old sports car was a 67 Corvette, then yeah.

A 30% interest rate over 2 years has you paying about the same amount of interest as 12% over 5 years.

And here he’s paying all that interest up front instead of spreading it. Genius.

12% over 5 years is better since the monthly payment is a lot smaller and you end up paying the same amount. And you can always pay more than the monthly payment if you can afford it.

5@12% >> 2@30%

I see you’ve taken a very concrete interpretation.

Dumb post. There's a reason why Korver is playing for Utah instead of Toronto or Philly. There are several teams with playoff hopes who are really pissed that they missed out on Korver. Utah only acquired him because they beat the offers from other dummies thinking like you that he could be had for less.

The really funny thing is that if Korver had been traded elsewhere, you and your fellow armchair expert GMs would be yapping about how DL just always sits on his hands and how we could have beaten the offer that got a certain player.

Regardless of what a GM does, there's always going to be amateur wanna-bees coming in to share their brilliant observations on what should have been done.
