Kareem is rolling in his grave at something called biyombo and whiteside making more in one year than Cap's whole career
 
So it's almost like you have to take the lesser evil or better yet, make the more value decision.

If you miss out on Whiteside who would you rather pay
Ezeli or Biyombo?? ...Cuz realistically we need one of those bigs. There is a big gaping whole in the roster at C.
 
Well Biyombo is 30 years old at least, so deal could be bad real quick.
 
Now that Biyombo & Ezeli are gunna get 15+ mil a year, you gotta go with the full court press on Whiteside. If you miss, I like Mahimi or Noah as a short term solution until we find the right center.

@SeanDeveney Bismack Biyombo has NBA execs talking $17 million a year — but not max, yet http://www.sportingnews.com/nba/new...lls-houston-rockets/gmhq185wbjpw15rmhj6cdwdiz
It's insane how the the term 'max contract' is being thrown around so loosely by these "insiders". FA are going to get over payed this summer but no team will give Batum, Barnes, or Ezeli a max. Even the wording of that tweet annoys me. Biyombo can ball out next game, or all through the finals if hell freezes over, and he still wont get max money.

Tristian Thompson got 80M right before the cap we up.  While I don't think Ezeli will get a max contract, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Batum or Barnes does.
 
Or you could just super overpay for a yr at like $20M so the team doesn't tie years into him. Gives him incentive to play hard (even though he naturally does) to get another payday.
 
Who knows man after last year. Let him have a crazy good workout and all bets are off.

I wouldn't mind Noah. He's a tough, smart player. In the right situation I could see him having a bounce back year.

They better not. :lol Last year was enough. We don't need no more surprises.

They missed on Kristaps, didn't believe their eyes. D'lo came in and put on a show and they went with the safer risk. I predict the same will be for Brandon/Ben.

Dragan is not Porzingawd btw

Porzingis isn't Porzingis on the Lakers though. He found the best situation for him in the Knicks by having a dynamic scorer in Melo next to him.

Also don't think they missed on him either.
Had a great start, and leveled off a lot as the season progressed. Could be Kurt Rambis' fault at least partially, but also could have been teams adjusting on him.


Nonetheless a good prospect. Didn't miss though. And if they did far too early to tell.
