T&T board top 5 worst contracts: Vote for #4 

Post#1 » by Dr Positivity » Thu Jan 4, 2024 5:22 pm

1. Bradley Beal (3 years, 149.9 million + 57.1 million 4th year player option) (contains no trade clause)
2. Jordan Poole (4 years, 127.6 million)
3. Ben Simmons (2 years, 88.3 million)

Please vote for who has the least trade value of these nominees including play, age, salary, health, etc. and not just the worst player or who deserves their contract the least.

Also nominate a new player to replace them on the list.

Vote Deandre Ayton

Huge contract for a style of player that's out of vogue

Nominate Jerami Grant

Just a very long contract for someone of his caliber

V Ayton
N Jerami Grant

FWIW, I think there's a huuuuuuuge drop off between #3 and #4. Most of the rest of these guys I could see a team taking on for expirings under the right circumstances.

Vote John Collins. He was just traded for literally nothing and has done nothing to improve his value.

Guys like Ayton and Jaylen Brown have the allure of being young or are good players (albeit overpaid). John Collins is over paid AND not a good player.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

I meant that Green is a poll option and Zion isn’t yet.
