Ian Mahinmi Signs with Washington

4 years, $64 million.

I'm happy we didn't pay him that.

Wish he'd gone to the western conference.

His improvement since we traded Collison for him has been impressive. His hustle was always there and always gave his everything. Still, he consistently disappears on offense and won't ever be an offensive difference maker. Showed signs of brilliance, but never kept it up. I always thought he was a fantastic backup hustle center, but nothing more.

I'm happy he got his payday, but I'm also happy Bird let him walk.

Mahinmi is the one thing I am disappointed about in th\is offseason. He has some skills that we are going to missssss.

Our board is on suicide watch cause Grunfeld sucks and he's never getting fired.

Where is he going to play? Are they trading Gortat?

I think Mahinmi and Gortat can play a couple minutes a night together, and otherwise, they are both best at around 25mpg. I think they'll form a great, if a tad overpriced, platoon, essentially.

Sure, Ian's a let down when you had Durant hopes, but he's not a bad player.

I wanted said overpriced platoon for our team here in indy. Wtf isgonna happen to our defense if Turner gets hurt again. Aaaaand we know they could have shared the floor together some because they already have.

Really feel like it was a mistake.

Ive been in Europe the last 6 weeks and just catching up on all ive missed... the $$$$ Mahinmi and Solo got is just plain crazy.

I still can't believe these figures are real.

Ditto. Especially Solomon Hill's. I literally had to read the article twice and slow to be sure I am reading the figures right.
