Yeah, not sure who's advocating keeping him because he chose us. I actually like Grant and I never cared about that. Sooo.....mattao313 wrote:I literally just say that in my post Grant is a solid player but its one of him always available somewhere that's the GM's job to find. I want him traded for a young guy or a pick if we can't do that just let him go no need to pay the man cause he said he wanted to play here. We are in like year 2? Of the rebuild we got a long way to go.DetroitSho wrote:Yes, people ARE arrogant and the arrogance is in the assumption of what we would get in his place. Not wanting to pay him is one thing, that's valid. But most times people balk on not extending Grant with the thinking of "nah I'd rather just have xyz" as if just selecting young guys and picks from another team is our choice.mattao313 wrote:Nope no one is arrogant just no one wants to play a guy thats a volume scorer with middling efficiency on a high usg% on top of that doesn't create for others. We'll suck with him or without him if we can get some more lottery tickets for him do it.
Y'all acting like we can't trade for a guy like him later. We've had Marcus Morris, Tobias Harris, and Reggie Jackson before on this team and got these guys for cheap.

Just curious, you don't want Grant around any longer, what would be your course of action?

My problem is the reasoning for moving on most times centers around the other thing hasn't pissed me off yet so I'll take that instead. For example, somehow the commentary here is he doesn't fit with Cade. He's a ball stopper, inefficient, takes the ball out of Cade's hands. Then a presented solution from this same board is Dejaunte Murray. He shoots more than Grant and scores less. And again, no shot at Murray, this is just an example of the other thing is automatically a better solution than what we have.
Another part of this is this whole $30 million is all hypothetical. I personally wouldn't pay him $30 million but I also don't think he'd get it which shapes my opinion of why people need to stop trying to throw him in the trash so easily. As I don't think the decision will be whether to pay him $30 million or no.
