What he got paid doesn't mean he's worth it.  Another team was not going to pay him what he wanted AND give up a 1st to do it. That was never going to happen.  I hope the Giants get their money's worth out of him. We certainly didn't get ours.

Wondering if he'll "take plays off" in the Meadowlands?

The point isn't that he's worth that much money, it's that if someone was willing to apy him that much, then we should have been getting more in return for him

We got fleeced, period, no way around it, 3rd time in 2 years.

That logic goes both ways. He’s also only worth a 2nd and a 5th since that’s all somebody was willing to give for him by that same logic.

Damn what did miss going to dinner and for some drinks?!?!?!  People looked at me crazy when I yelled when the trade was announce on ESPN. 

A) I'm glad Burns, as a contract distraction, and his cap burden are gone.

B) I'm pissed at the compensation.

I went from elated to pissed and now I'm numb to the whole thing.  I guess two first rounders is the MAXIMUM compensation for a franchise tag, not the law of the tag.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
