Vote Horford

Between him and Bertans for me, not going to vote for people like Wlaker or Porzingis, or someone playing well like Harris. While Horford is doing decent it's still a lot and eating the 12 million on the 3rd year even if you waive isn't great.

Nominate Eric Gordon

Vote: Porzingis - didnt nominate him for **** and giggs. I'll be the first to admit I havent seen much of him, but I did catch both him and Horford recently, and while both are definitely overpaid, I found myself thinking "Meyers Leonard, Barganani" etc when watching KP play. He just looks so immobile and his biggest asset is his 3pt shooting, which is still really good, but him having to play C means you are sacrificing so much up the middle.. not sure whatever came of his personal problems either. But when I look at everyone left, I think I'd want KP least, and I just dont know how any team would accept him right now.

Nominate: Eric Gordon. Doesnt matter to me really. My #10 is already on the list and I dont think anyone nominated here is gonna get a single vote next time

V. Horford

I really considered Porzingas here, and it’s quite possible we’ll look bad and wonder why we didn’t have him higher. It’s a lot of money, and he has a lot of injury history. But he also has a lot of upside too, and he has the potential to be worth the contract, which I feel many on the list do not.

Vote Porzingis

[VCfor3]

Vote Harris but it's tough. I could see someone trading for most of these guys if they were ever fully available.

[jbk1234]

It just cost the Sixers a first to get off of Horford's deal - in the offseason. He's gotten neither younger nor better since. I don't understand how he's not on the list ahead of some these guys already.

Horford all day.

Vote Kemba. Lots of money for a 3rd option and often hurt.

Not so sure I agree with that. Horford with the starters has a positive net rating. Replace him with Roby at the center and it’s the worst 5 man lineup in the nba that’s played significant minutes. Most of his stats are up too. His third year not being fully guaranteed a makes a difference too.

Horford
N: Eric Gordon

I think Harris isn't due yet, I know a lot of people have voted for him. He's a really good year, and yes, he is overpaid, but I don't think it's that egregious.

[Mr Swagtastic]

Vote: Horford I can't see him getting moved unless they are taking back one of the worser deals.

Nominate: Eric Gordon

Roby is a meh prospect who was drafted late. He makes $1.5M per. Horford makes $27.5M.

Vote kemba.

I am surprised at the voting for Horford. I’ll admit that Horford has the least upside as a player but it’s like people are voting as if everyone of these guys is being paid the same.

[giberish]

Vote Horford

He's a nice MLEish C making way more. Eating $12M in dead money for the 3rd year isn't appealing either. Other guys *such as Walker or Porzingis) may be having some bad games and make somewhat more but are generally recovering from injury and can reasonably be expected to regain form.

Nom: Eric Gordon

[basketballwacko2]

I'm voting for Eric Gordon.

Horford is old and I think he's out hurt but has a buy out in his final year of $14 million. Gordon also has a partial guarantee in his last year but I think Horford could help a team more than Gordon.

[Chicago-Bull-E]

Vote kemba.

Agreed on Horford. His contract is much less awful than KPs, much shorter, and not to mention he has a higher BPM and VORP than KP. I don’t think it’s close.

I vote KP.
