In the red corner - there are maybe 2 or 3 crazy fanboy videogame junkie teenageers who post here who feel like extending Davis at the predicted $20mil.
In the blue corner - there are maybe 1 1/2 crusty old "purist" jackoffs who hate Baron's personality so much that they undervalue his on court contribution and want to trade Davis for an expiring and an injury riddled 3rd tier PG today "for the future."
If you don't fall into either of these camps, how about we just stupulate that he's the best player we have access to at the position and we will have a ton of capspace when he expires after next season. Until then, let's stop rehashing the same tired sham arguments that he is either the devil incarnate or a perennial All Star? Theres been nothing new added to this discussion for most of 2 years, and at this point it makes for pretty boring and predictable reading,and it seemingly ALWAYS turns personal.
Shaddup already!
Agreed. But I'm not in either corner.
Can't trade him, wouldn't get anything for him, defniitely would lose in the immediacy by taking on expirings... but draft picks would have been nice when they might have been had!
Like him when he's on, sorry he's not on more than half a season, know he's a good guy in lots of ways but a pain in the a$$ if you're trying to manage his ego come payday/spotlight pointing. When he really comes to play against a big fat locomotive NBA powerhouse and we win, I'll let up on the postgame show.
Fin.
