When did I say Hayward wouldn't be a good fit for Charlotte?

I said he's not a superstar and he didn't deserve the contract that he got, both of which are true, even if they are my "opinion."

Nobody "deserves" anything. Players are paid what they earn. Hayward earned his deal. He was Utah's best player, & a perfect fit in Charlotte.

Marvin needs to be arrested for theft or give half his contract to charity.

 

Cho overpriced Henderson and Williams, but there's NO WAY that he also overpriced Hayward too, according to some people around here. Yes, I know Utah matched, so what? If Hayward was worth as much as he got, they would've offered it to begin with instead of letting him test the waters. 

 

Based on what Lance could've gotten in the market, Cho underpriced him, which looks like a smart move based on his production this season. 

 

Not a good track record for Cho in Charlotte, though, especially when you add in the 2012 draft. You need someone who can shoot so yes, let's draft the one guy who everyone knew couldn't shoot just because he played for Kentucky after you just re-signed Gerald Henderson, who also can't shoot.

I forgot that one as another one of the overpriced ones. Measure: Who else would've given Kemba $12M per (without making him test the market first)?

No one.

Time to dump Cho's ass. Rather keep Clifford around than Cho.

In a very good FA with some very good point guards (Rondo/Dragic), he chose to give a huge contract to Kemba before the season even started. I mean if you do lose out on Kemba, you could've probably get Reggie Jackson (very similar; imo better than Kemba) for cheaper than 12mil.

Kemba is playing like a 8mil PG, not 12mil.

      TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
