T&T board top 10 worst contracts - Vote for #1

[slos]

Griffin and Horford look totally washed. Russ, Wall, Love, even Wiggins can at least make numbers and be productive. Blake and Al play in bad teams and have a year less in their deals, but they are still the worst contracts imo.

1. Blake

KD and Wall both look great post Achilles but took almost two calendar years away from basketball. If klay does that you're spending $70M on 0 production.

Edit: OK more like a year and a half but the point stands

And just no reason to cherry pick those guys when we have so many examples of guys who were never remotely the same. I hope Klay can come back and resume his career and be 85% of what he once was, but just zero chance I'm assuming that today.

That's because rehab has become targeted and effective recently, and the majority of examples of people who were never remotely the same often times were on the tail-end of their careers, or opted not to do the pro athlete style Achilles rehab that is far, far more labor intensive and painful than the civvy one

Better to heavily weight the examples that are recent than mix in ones from years ago.. had a poster on the gb, forget who, who cited a report that used 85 athletes from the 4 major sports.. the data was heavily slanted to people who had Achilles injuries in the 80s, 90s (only several in the 00s and exactly 3 from the 10's)

To give an idea where we are w/Achilles rehab - I'm far more worried about Dipo's long term prognosis than Klay's. And I'm worried about KD's old foot injury than his Achilles. Really major strides have been made there, and I think both Wall and Durant (along with Klay) will be the beginning of the end of that stigma, just like how ACLs became less serious, like how microfracture doesn't become a dirty word, etc etc

Fans need famous results to change their minds so it usually takes a few years for it to happen. But like I told the Nets fans when they brought in KD - he's gonna be fine and they're gonna love it. Just watch out for the foot. Jones fractures tend to have all kinds of varying results to this day, and the rehab process hasnt changed very much (at least not since 2018 - I havent seen/heard of anything since then though)

I can't believe that people are nominating Hayward. I'd trade Drummond for him tomorrow.

Also, Horford obviously belongs on this list. He was just traded for negative value this summer and he hasn't gotten any younger or better since.

Take it FWIW, but Jason Lloyd, who is not a mouthpiece guy, said that Portland offered an expiring Bazemore and Whiteside for Love last year.
