Is Sasha underrated now? 

Post#1 » by xkirruax » Sat Jul 10, 2010 4:41 am

People think its crazy to think he isnt even worth 3 mil a year for 1 year. come on the guy is a 371 % from the 3 in his career with pretty good defense. Plus knows how to get players off there game with pissing them off. Yet if you tell a team u would trade them Sasha and 2 mil for a TPE they think its crazy. 3 Mil for Sasha is a steal. While he aint worth 10 mil to the Lakers he should easly be worth 3 mil to another team. The other options teams have is overpaying players who are pretty much Sasha for many years.....

Please list them and there contracts. Im not saying Sasha is the best player ever buy people act like Sasha for 1 year @ 3 Mil (lakers sending back 2 mil) for a TPE is bad for the other team. Do people really think the guy wont get a contract after next year. Shooters get paid no matter what.

for what sasha is making, 5 million a year...we could have given that to a much better player that can offer so much more other than shooting. if sasha is not hitting his three the guy is useless!

lol i called you out on your first post im waiting on the list of 20 players with there contracts. Plus Sasha offers more then just Shooting he is a decent passer and a pretty good defender. Plus mind games and the guy is Clutch. the past 3 years i have seen him make way more buzzer beeters then missed. He just aint worth 10 Mil to the Lakers this year. While he should easly be worth 3 Mil to another team while fans on this site make it seem like he aint even worth 3 mil...

[qoute=hermes]oh yeah

man I don't really want to go to nba.com and go through it one by one.


question do you think....raja bell/ mike miller/ jj reddick/ randy foye/ steve blake/ chris duhon/ ryan gomes are better than sasha? all these players are far better than sasha and all of them can be had for 5 million or maybe even lower.

The guy is an Idiot i swear and dosnt know when to use the levarge he has. these are the Bad contracts the guy has handed out.
Walton
Sasha
Vlad
Bynum
With Walton Sasha and Bynum they could of all been had for less of what they signed. No one was offering Walton that much plus that extra 6th year was even worst. Sasha was only being courted by a team "over sea's" Yet he gave him 2 mil more then he should of but atleast it was a 3 year deal. Now Bynum is another one wich made no sence they didnt have to sign Bynum to anything at all. We could of waited tell the off season seeing how we pretty much maxed him out anyways plus we could have just matched if push came to shove. Last year with Odom we offered him 2 mil more then we had to also no team cuz no team had cap space.

Now we have Blake who is our big signing this year. Just look at it he could of been gotten for 500k to 1 mil less a year. No teams was going to offer him more then that. This year again like last year players have no levarge to ask for more *Fisher* no team will offer him more then vets min and he is trying to overpay for 2.5 mil and now thinking of going over that wtf is he thinking.

Now with trades we have seen a lot of teams fleece other teams last year for player we could of used like Jeffries off the bench last year and this year. PLus could of used the picks huston got just for taking him on. Players wanting to come play for the Lakers this year Shaq and T Mac might end up with MIA cuz he wont sign him for no reason now they might help them out a lot instead of us.


WTF?

Sasha is a good defender against skinnier players. If he's not hitting his 3s, he's still a floor spacer because he has that reputation.

So what if he's not worth 5 million? Players get overpaid all the time. He was worth 5 million when we signed him to a CONTRACT.

If he played like he did in 07 in today's market, some team would have offered him the full MLE.

He fits his role. He knows the tri. Yes we could have a better player for 5 mil. Just not sure where we would find one.

I think he's underrated. Has he gotten worse since 07? Yes but I still think that he's underrated.
