Understatement of the year.

I think everyone thought he wouldnt even get 10 minutes per game
 
I think being back in NC will make Marvin comfortable and maybe he can get a bit of his college swagger back. Jefferson and Steve Clifford proved to be a good moves, but all of MJ and Rich Cho's other moves prove to be head-scratchers. Sometimes it is the player drafted (MKG at #2) and sometimes it is the amount of money they are throwing at a player. I get the Hayward max because they had to overpay to even get a chance. I feel like Marvin could have been had in the $4-6 range per year, maybe a three year for the MLE.

Not from what i remember.

I remember everyone think that biedrins and jefferson were garbage that we had to take on in order to get GS draft picks. Some people thought rush might be decent but most believed that jefferson was just something that we HAD to take on to get the draft picks and that he wouldnt be a big part of our team.


I dont remember anyone predicting that he would start..... other than to make a joke about corbin vet love
 
^^
Exactly.
Then we heard the rumor that the Jazz were going to help resurrect Jefferson's career and the real groans began.

Has Sacramento signed him to a contract yet?

If I get some time I'll have to dig up some old posts. Everyone knew they were both trash. Corbin's track record includes giving heavy minutes to a guy who's previous stint was with the Harlem Globetrotters (Bell), mindlessly playing Josh Howard after an injury, not allowing Kanter or Burks to ever hit the floor, etc. the writing was on the wall. I stated Jefferson would start and that there was at least a 25% chance Biedrins started. I was off on the last one as he never played. But this was not a crazy prediction. I was amazed that there were even more than a handful of people who thought Jefferson would be sitting on the bench.
