The acquisition itself was a 2. The TIMING was a NEGATIVE 10. Especially if it never was apart of some later deal down the line.MotownMadness wrote:DetroitSho wrote:So for the people on the first day of free agency that tried to justify this acquisition, wtf are your thoughts now?

Not sure what i was thinking but i also didn't expect FA to be this bad punting the cap. Thought he would at least be a 10 ppg sniper or something as well.
I've never been on the punt the capspace plan. It's been an utter disaster and I feel like it wastes years of your players' development just bringing in bodies for their contract and compensation, why they do nothing for you on the court. And that's IF you do it right and get decent compensation. We wasn't even getting good comp so it has helped us not one single bit.MotownMadness wrote:DetroitSho wrote:The acquisition itself was a 2.

Let’s remain hopeful. There’s still 2 hours to dump him and wiseman.

Eh, I'm not sure why the cap floor carries as much concern as it does.
Unless there is a change in the new CBA that I'm not currently aware of, the only penalty for not reaching the floor is you have to give players on your team pro-rated bonuses equivalent to the floor deviation. Which isn't exactly a scary punishment.

Secondary to your over all point which I agree with, but I'm not sure why the cap floor seems to carry as much concern as it does.

It’s horrible for flexibility. You don’t have salary ballasts to make trades with.
