Fun fact: Dirk, LeBron, KD, AI all have same career high in made free throws: 24. Raps' DeMar DeRozan matched them all tonight. #WeTheNorth

He didn't try to whip it either, he just didn't try to make it so it clanked short off the front rim. No risk of missing the rim, and no time for Portland to do anything meaningful with it. That's exactly what I was hoping for and I was glad they played it out that way. I don't know who said what to DeMar. If someone did, awesome.

Honestly, do you want a guy who has hissy fits to the refs like that to be getting a max deal? He is a big reason why we are still a soft team
Just let him walk...
And if complaining to the refs ever affected peoples contracts, then Kobe and Lebron would be out of the league.

Russel Westbrook who feels he just never gets a call go his way....nor as he has ever committed a defensive foul .. ever.
The Joey Crawford fan club president ...the always contrite Tim Duncan.....
Lauren Holtkamps biggest fan...the deferential Chris Paul...
The always pleasant demeanored Boogie Cousins.
Trading or waiving or simply walking away from players who complain about the nba's fluid refereeing standards is not really a credible strategy...Last edited by Demographic Shift; Mon Mar 7, 2016, 03:42 PM.There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.

Do you want that attitude as a max contract?
Honestly, if we sign him with the intent of trading him you essentially are handicapping the development and progression of the team for a full year...wasting a year and potentially bringing in players who you dont necissarily want in order to move his contract. Is that something you want to do?
Letting an asset walk without getting a return may have less negative consequences than signing with the intent to trade.
DD is far from deserving a max contract even with his improved play and the fact that his max will be more like a rookie max with the following cap jump

He doesn't "routinely quit" on the team .. I really don't even know what you're talking about.
And you will be very hard pressed to find anyone else to agree that Demar doesn't deserve a Near-Max, or Max Contract, based on his current level of play. A "Max" contract that will only be "Max" for exactly 1-season, before it becomes just another contract.

And he will be paid at the rookie max instead of vet max level with the bump in cap. Which is a lot for a very flawed player.
I was replying to a post that i thought implied that letting him wall was bad and that we at least need to recover his value via sign and future trade...even though we dont want him
If we do want to keep him however this team will go nowhere fast. Thats pretty obvious
