J.R. SMITH : best price/benefit ratio?

Postby GeneralNbaFan on Sun Nov 18, 2012 5:02 pm

Why did this guy sign only for 2,8 mio?

Camby, Novak, Felton, Kidd are earning more than him!

I don't think there's any doubt were getting
Huge bang for our buck with jr. He's probably the best deal with the possible exception of some amnesty players like brand.

It seems the reason he came for so cheap is because of an under the table deal with the Knicks that led them to sign his little brother Chris. We will also have his bird rights after this season meaning hell likely get a big contract from us

Jr wants the bigger payday.

You need bird rights for that.

He's on the cheap now......

That's Earl.

Yes thats right, I looked at the roster and tried to explain that a player should never agree to getting paid millions less, but all the players are on a good contract ( JR is still the best)....

I think the only one who shouldnt making that much is Novak.... i think 3mio would be ok!

Novak received market set money.

I think he was sold on that to stay.

Knicks will only have early Bird rights for him. That means $5M PER the most he could get. I think the Knicks offer him $20M/4 and that's really what he's worth.

I can't see any team under the cap offering him more. 4/$48M is absurd for JR. Not even close.

Landry got offered more than that. I can easily see another team throwing money at him.

I really dont like him as a player and I dont think he had the upside to become a "Superstar" like Kobe, but I think hes worth 10mio. +

Landry was a "good character" guy and he was 24, so an idiot GM like Colangelo overpaid for him.

JR is a problem guy and nobody is going to overpay for him. He needs to be coddled by a guy like Woodson in order to perform. What team under the cap is going to bid $10M for him?

Houston? Phoenix? Kings? Cavs? Bucks? NOH? Jazz? Hawks? Pistons? Mavs?

Nobody is bidding more than MLE money for JR.

There will be 10 teas under the cap next season. Which one offer JR $10M?

1. Houston
2. Phoenix
3. Kings
4. Cavs
5. Bucks
6. NOH
7. Jazz
8. Hawks
9. Pistons
10. Mavs

People are forgetting that Mayo got $4M and he's 24.

Damn this thread made me worried we will lose JR next season. If we only have early bird rights and can offer him 5 million a year max then he is gone for sure. Someone is going to offer him more money than that. :evil: :evil: :(
