Or sit on the bench behind Greasy. <br /><br />Seriously, this demonstrates a real weakness not just in Smith's game, but also Marvin Williams, who could do a much better job at this than he does. I'd like to see a midlevel exception offered to Brandon Bass if regardless whether we get Zaza or not.rbubphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14995614356146242348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8912756.post-77393035020454772332009-07-07T12:37:16.792-04:002009-07-07T12:37:16.792-04:00Yep, I think everyone knows what I think by now, a...Yep, I think everyone knows what I think by now, and I haven't looked at the cap numbers yet, but 6 million a year seems reasonable to me. <br /><br />Yes I wish it was 2 years instead of 3 but we should be able to sign another big to help with rebounding.thirdfalconhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15943193896421669390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8912756.post-67077439589018459332009-07-07T11:23:25.748-04:002009-07-07T11:23:25.748-04:00This is really genius on Sund's part: regardle...This is really genius on Sund's part: regardless what the results are versus last year it will have been entirely Woody's call. <br /><br />I think the Crawford signing is smart despite the cost (and when you consider they pay Pachulia 8 mil to be a backup, not such a terrible deal). Murray was a big part of last year's success, but as as has been pointed out, it was a career year not likely to be duplicated. Now they have slightly overpaid for a guaranteed repeat of that performance by another player. <br /><br />I like it. I didn't like it when it looked as though they might let Bibby walk, but as long as they have him this works.<br /><br />Just need some rebounding and perimeter defense, now.rbubphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14995614356146242348noreply@blogger.com
