One of the best things to come from last year's terrible season. I was really shocked we go thim for so cheap when we did, totally deserved this pay day, maybe even deserved more. Ed Davis added to the list of players I hate seeing leave us.
I said I'd be happy to keep him for 5-6 mil, he got not much more than that, sad to see him go. Was probably my favorite player last season, what a waste letting a guy like him who's still young and improving go.
The more I dwell on this the more disappointed I get. The way role players are getting paid this offseason, we're idiots for letting Davis go for 3 years 20 mil. He even said he wanted to be here but didn't want to wait on us anymore. It's the same thing that happened with Farmar last offseason, except Davis is actually good and improving. I'm losing more faith in this FO by the minute.
Well, what a surprise... NOT. Let's hope KD makes his mind asap next year. If he drags it, Mitch and co. will wait as long as he's still out there... missing on other players as usual.
We used that money to go get the reigning 6th Man of the Year and replace Ed in the rotation with Randle... I think it worked out just fine.
I read somewhere, don't know if true, that KD is going to make a big deal of his "decision". Milk it for ratings, money, etc., etc. and that will probably drag it out a lot longer.
