Holy crap! I would have rather paid Anderson. At least he fits a role. Why on earth pay more for your backup center than your starter.

Glad I jumped off the EG bandwagon when I did. This is bad.

So, they could use Mahinmi and a SF more than anything. I like the chase of Sullinger and Zeller and Saty and a backup SG. That's plan D.


I forgot that they also have Brown, Yabusele and Zizic

Seriously, F this front office. My entire life, this organization has been utter gutter trash. No foresight, no creativity, just pure ineptitude. Paying 16 million a year for a backup center is utter garbage. Anyone who ever thought that Snyder was the worst owner in town, isn't paying attention. We are an utter joke.

I can't even blame EG any more. He has an established track record of underwhelming results. It's that thin-skinned, self-overrated supposed leadership guru Ted "urinal cakes" Leonsis that is responsible for this abortion of an off-season.

It's like paying 16 mln a year for a less talented Hibbert brother... Jesus FOR A BACK-UP Center.

Gortat HAS to be on the move.

That's the only way this remotely makes sense.

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

Absolutely correct


And that's the issue from the booming "Representing the most powerful city in the world" PA announcement, then trotting out garbage teams for 25 years.....they're a joke.

Leonsis needs to drop some money to bribe DC to remove the embarrassing Chinese translations over the **** franchise stores surrounding the Verizon center. Would be a good first step, 10 years later during my infrequent visits they always solicit pathetic laughs from whomever I am with....Trust me that doesn't help with well traveled foreigners. It's absolutely ridiculous, and screams ignorance.

And signed more cheaply

Your saying we couldn't have offered Sullinger and Zeller 10 each and been done with it? Sigh.

Cue up the obligatory Gortat + Porter + ? for Cousins chatter.

Horford must of looked at Wall, Beal, Otto, Gortat and thought...maybe.

Then he looked at Ernie & Ted and saw...

I agree....but IF you had a deal on the table to fill another need, this MIGHT make some sense.

Might.... :nonono:

And that would make it even worse. Getting rid of a better player at a lower salary, just to pay a lesser player more? Why? Whatever piece they might get for Gortat, I bet they could have gotten something similar with the money they just blew on Mahinmi.

The only hope I have is that both Ted Leonsis and Grunfeld will eventually die one day. Then perhaps this systemic stupidity will come to an end.

**** everything.
