Wurider05 Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 We are still that franchise that has to overpay to get top level talent. We just need to accept that. The question is who do we overpay? You don't overpay guys like Ariza and Deng because you are not going to get any more out of them because they have reached their peaks. You overpay for guys like Parsons, Bledsoe, Stephenson, and Hayward. Those guys are good and have yet to reach their full potential like Joe was when we signed him from Phoenix. Speaking of JJ, man he would be a perfect fit on this team right now. You all can drink the Danny Ferry Kool-aide and think that he has some kind of grand plan. While we finally have a good coach, our situation is still the same. Now that the big 3 is broken up, Miami has 50+ plus to build a new team. Hell might not be anyone left once they get through. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afro Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 Yeah I mentioned it the other day. Would we be better off with JJ instead of all this cap space we aren't really using? We could still have gotten Millsap with Joshs money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dejay Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 And who would they have any chance of signing with all of that cap space? I'll wait... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a scale we could only dream of. Granted the team didn't do anything, but there were a lot of reasons for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) Don't forget that this team has flexible cap space. *wink* This team needs to stay flexible so that they can take that pounding coming from all different directions.

Popular Post High5 Posted July 11, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 I'm with you guys on being frustrated with how our offseason has gone so far, but I know for a fact that a lot of the people criticizing Ferry for not making it rain would be the first to crucify him for overpaying 2nd/3rd tier players. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, hell no to Joe Johnson Every time they showed Pop in the huddle with the Spurs he'd tell them: The ball doesn't stick.

Premium Member Sothron Posted July 11, 2014 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 I hate to say this but suddenly Lance is looking more like an option with teams like Dallas and Miami set to go kamikaze over Deng. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
