And no one bit on the Spurs offer because they know he's not worth anywhere near a top 5 pick or Kyrie Irving. Doesn't matter if its 60% of the max, 57.4%, or whatever, he makes 21 this year and 22 next year, for what he contributes on the court, he's overpaid. He's slow now and can't sustain the pace of today's game, yet he still thinks he's an alpha and pouts about it.

One of the best defensive bigs in the NBA. Pace isn't his problem. And yes, just using straight dollars for an argument is like using FG% for efficiency. He's not being paid to be a superstar. A guy who can drop 25 points against GS as a second option is totally worth that, even ignoring that he anchored one of the league's best Ds.

No one was willing to trade a top-five pick for LMA (or at least they weren't willing to trade the player available with the pick for him). That and the Cavs talk was all we heard about the LMA (and Danny Green) trade rumors. I won't pretend to know what happened behind the scenes, but there is no evidence that a) LMA was on the block for less than what was reported and b) Teams weren't willing to trade significant packages for him. Everyone has their own opinions, obviously, but the consensus about LMA just seems built on a false narrative.

don't feed the troll. Some peoples takes are so poor on some topics its not worth responding to.

Real mature with the name calling. You posted constantly how teams should trade their top 2 players or high lottery picks for LMA, the market has proved he does not have that value. But keep thinking the rest of the Nba should bow to the altar of Pop

Perhaps you should take your own advice and just not respond if that's all you have to say. You know that comments like this are unacceptable, so please don't do it again.
