You are dead wrong. Millsap was eligible for the super max because of his age. Why are you using Gordon Heyward? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to concentrate on accumulating younger players less coveted by the league like a Shabazz. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denver made a mistake but that's how things go in this league. Time to concentrate on accumulating younger players less coveted by the league like a Shabazz. 3 and 90 would've been the perfect deal, with an option, apparently. That was, in my opinion, the offer that should've been made and not been insulting. The ones who said Hawks had NO interest were correct. Sad, but not unexpected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know what this references. I may have cited that others were predicting that, and being the relatively humble sort, allowed for that possibility thought it did seem a stretch. Me, I actually said $30m/yr is what I thought he'd get. My mistake was in thinking he'd get 4 years. He got 3, or maybe just 2. Look it up. Meanwhile, I understand why you'd prefer not to discuss the question I asked just before this, but I don't really understand (still) why the dogged determination to deny what was readily apparent to anyone else. But to each his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

School our consensus lottery pick PF, and 11 straight years in the playoffs. But other than that, keep us from a needed lottery pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
