The feedback I've received from our fans is they understand we are trying to build something great. Good decisions come from having a broad set of options and making tough calls. We will do it unblinkingly. We have to be willing to take smart risks-Hinkie

guessing he can't work his footwork in the post all that well at the moment so he's expanding aspects of his game. I dunno the extent of his recovery stage at the moment so im spitballing here.

Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

Looks pretty athletic and not fat to me given he's added a bunch of wait and has that foot thing. But I'm quite fat myself.
