He's from the Clippers organization so of course he's speaking in those terms.
So you're accusing me of being passive or quiet prior to last season despite mounds of evidence saying otherwise? I've always been confident in general . Just saying... this is a guy who's referring to Batum/Aldridge as legit franchise players (Aldridge might be... but Batum LOL?) then comparing them to all star starters in CP3/BG. Not exactly an unbiased guy.
Besides in this particular case I was just having a little joke at his expense because of the max offer sheet.

Indy should let him go. They will be stuck with a huge contract for long and he's a gamble right now. His ceiling might not be much more higher than where he stands right now.

I'm thinking they should keep him mainly because they need him in the paint but I agree he will likely not improve much.

All teams do have money to burn, but most likely this move won't cost any money to the offering team at all.

indy are a player or two from being real contenders and you suggest they should let their top 5 C just walk? not gonna happen. he'll get overpaid, but look around the league and you'll find overpaid contracts all over. this won't be an albatross or one of the worst contracts by a long shot.
the market dictates the price. he's the best big on the market and every year, you're going to find the top 2-3 FA's get a max offer. just go back and look. honestly, hibbert getting a max contract was to be expected. sbnation and SI both figured as much. it's not like the rest of the league hasn't taken notice either....
He's a stud," an Eastern Conference general manager said. "He would fit in on any team."

Re: Portland Offers Roy Hibbert Max Deal
portlands offer is not a big deal at all.
Indiana is going to match anything so its obvious that teams would throw a max at him to drive up the price.
as mentioned earlier, the dude is def not worth the max. he averaged 12 and 12 on 48% in 32 mins against the heat in the playoffs (who were playing him with 6ft 8 defenders lmao ).
the dudes 7 ft 2 and 280... and he averaged 12 dam points?
fken crazy.
the whole situation is ridiculous but in this market expected

LMA and Hibbert would be a pretty good front court, but I can't see Indy letting him go.

Lol at keeping Hickson. I like the guy as a back up but that guy was playing hard for a contract. Everyone knows it. He is not what a good enough defender to justify starting at center.

All teams don't have multi billionaire owners. The Jazz had to take out a loan to pay the 10 million dollar signing bonus that Portland put in Millsap's offer sheet.

. How can anybody take this man seriously lately? Then he meets with a solid, not great center and throws the bank at him .
You're the worst poster on this board.
How can you laugh at an organization for 'throwing money' at an ALL STAR, when your pathetic flopping team that is LA 'threw money' at a absolute dud in Deandre Jordan. You're an absolute hypocrite.
