Heard the sun is coming up in the east tomorrow.
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

It's so g**dan hopeless too. Even if we get better guard/perimeter play, we still can't due to being capped with all our contracts.

No crap. We're just 5 years away from being 5 years away!

Need an owner who will commit to rebuilding. Instead we've got one who feels like a playoff series is a victory. Not that we get many of those either.

I don't quite understand why this needs a thread, and I don't see anything positive that can come from it.
