Fans will complain, but not at the same level as the fans of teams that overpaid guys like Biyombo, Mahinmi, Evan Turner, and that sort of thing. Not those names this off-season, but whichever ones inevitably get overpaid like that just because teams have so much money to spend and the supply of players worth spending it on fall way short of demand.
But doesn't that equate to..well, not as bad as shifting around the deck chairs on the Titanic, but you get the idea. I think it might be time for the team to make a much bolder move. I mean the kind of move that makes Victor the SECOND best player on the team, if he is retained. The kind of move that requires the team to package a pick (or picks) with a starter (or starters) for a REAL difference maker. I'm talking about an Anthony Davis or Kyrie Irving type, and yes that is going to cost, and no there aren't many of those. That is why they are worth a lot.
I'm sorry guys, but I just don't see Turner or Domas becoming all-stars on a regular basis - and that is the level of players we need. I think most of the guys on the team that we value highly, are valued that highly primarily because they are on our team.
I think it is time to stop cutting bait and to grow a pair and go fishing.
