Of course they are, because the magic sucked.

But this guy quietly avg 21 ppg/12 rbs/3.8 asst/51%FG/36%3PT/ AND HE WAS AN ALL STAR.

Would you guys be opposed to adding him?

Strange how he drastically improved in his contract year- give him a 4 year max forthwith!
Allanfan20 @ 6/12/2019 4:16 PM
I’d take him if we got Kawhi. That’s it though. I like him but he alone isn’t enough.

I look at him as a fall back option, and i don't think he is worth the max.

Can he stay on the floor during playoffs against the good teams? I think he's too slow to play meaningful minutes in high competition games. He's a great stat stuffer for your fantasy team though.....

Believe this was Briggs pick in tbe draft, then again there were a lot of them. Good player, but not someone I would want to max out.

I wouldn't max him but I would sign him if he was signed with three guys instead of two

The guy is not a max player, I'm sure you can talk him into taking less.

IMO there are only 5 max guys in FA, KD, KLAY, Kawhi, Kemba and Kyrie..

I would not max out any other player, not Jimmy, not Tobais, not Nikola, not Middleton, not Cousins, not Russel...I think you can convince this group to take less if your a good negotiator and have an ideal plan to present to them.

Fizzdale has a great history with foreign players -- big men in particular. Match made in heaven

He's like Greg Monroe... he does things. Several things, but never good enough to impress his will on a game. Pass

feel like this is a young Brook Lopez with the 3pt shot. At max, not a good deal. At $3M, a super deal. At $10-$15M, maybe OK if all the other pieces are in place.

If Mitch could play the 4, I would sign Vucevic, but we can't sign him unless we can give big minutes to both Mitch and Vucevic. Mitch is athletic enough to play 4, but I don't think he yet has the skills to play that position and Vucevic is too slow to play the 4.

That was pretty much my point, he's not a super star by any stretch, but if you can split the cap into 3 maybe russel, middleton, nikola, that's not a bad PLAN C
