Who is best known for ONLY producing  in a contract year (that's how 
he got the $9MM) And even though this would effectively be one, oh 
yeah, just what we need... not. He also makes Perk look like greased 
lightening. Hell, he makes Kandiman and Scal look like greased 
lightening with a supercharger. Now maybe my view is colored by 
having a good friend who's a Golden State fan, but it constantly 
amazes me how often we "gotta have" guys who if we already have them 
we'd be gagging over and trying to get rid of. Part of the shoe 
shopping is the answer approach I guess. Can never have too many 
pairs of cheap Manulo knock offs..
