What's new

Jazz looked.....average,defensively and offensively

I got so much **** for saying we should have signed Marco before he signed with the Spurs. I think JFC was 99% against it. (For the historians)
 
Average offense? What offense? Quin needs to hire a specialist and defer.

It seems that Q's imagination is dependent on gravity guys in a drive-and-kick and PnR heavy flow. Swing swing swing. That can be pretty basketball, but that shoe aint fitting so well in Utah right now.

He's trying to play college ball. It's garbage.
 
6.3 million a year isn't overpaying for one of the leagues best 3pt shooters. That will be the equivalent of a 2 or 3 million dollar contract next year. He also is a high IQ player who can pass.

Green may not be the highest IQ, but he can light it up from deep and has no conscious when he shoots, which is what we need.

I'm pretty sure the cap is not increasing by 300%.

A 300% increase from 2-3 million would be 8-12 million.

From 2:
100% increase = 4
200% increase = 6
300% increase = 8

Either way, that is not how contracts work. With all the extra money people have been getting, an elite shooting will be getting way more than 6 million in the coming years (or that will be average and not a bad contract). I dont see it as an overpay given the current cap and a very good pay given future cap.

Your finger counting aside, I used your lower figure of 2m, which is 225% increase from 6.5m. Cap is increasing by what? 30%? Your new justification doesn't make sense either. Money gotta come from somewhere. If ~3x salaries are the norm for shooters now, then I expect that other roles will have their salaries cut in a similar proportion? :rolleyes:

Edit: fixed %

Neto (+12) had the highest plus minus! Why, he played zero minutes next to Burke who was -15 in just 16 min. Basically we won that game but **** ourselves hard when Burke was on the court.

Burks was -12 while putting up 18 pts and getting 6 boards. What gives? He played a large portion of his minutes next to Burke. He clearly had a positive +- in the 4th. I bet he was +3 when not playing next to Burke. I bet that's why his +- is 3 points better than TB's.

Addition by subtraction. Get rid of Burke

30% rise in cap doesn't mean that money is getting evenly distributed to everyone as is. Teams are still going to have the minimum contracts and vet minimum contracts making up 5 or so players. The 30% is going to the guys who play.

Exact numbers aside, I don't believe Bellineli is currently overpaid and I firmly his contract will look great once the new cap kicks in.
