nova's doing a terrible job with the hornets... I think he shouldve kept Parker. Parker and WiIlliams wouldve been nice. Ariza got too much cash. No way we were gonna go that high for him.

Ariza may be overpaid but he still is a productive player. He has some potential left.
The BBS is all about competing. Spencer has said it himself before that he wants 25 teams going for it every year. Nova is just trying to put together the best team he can. He doesn't have his 1rst until 2011 and had cap space and he used it as well as he could have. He wanted to make sure he got Ariza so he offers him what he needed to get him.
While Nova took some heat for signing Nene, Parker, and Gordon to big deals he manged to deal Parker and Gordon (although Parker wasn't really a bad signing IMO) so if he needs to deal Ariza he can get it done.
Give Nova a break guys. Ariza is still young and could get better and Nova is just trying to put the together the best team he can.

With over 15 mill left, the Grizz should sign a couple more guys tonight. Very happy with the youth we picked up. Robert Swift is overpaid, but he ciould be a pretty solid C, and those are tough to get. He's got 1 RC left. Mo Williams has some solid ratings, but hasnt played much in BBS. He wasnt much of a scorer in orlando, we're hoping a fast outside offense will be to his liking. He's got 1 RC left. James white is the most intriguing. A B+ C+ scorer with B potential and 3 RCs left. Id say we'll spend all those RCs on scoring and try and make him a #1 option. White can only be upgraded 1 time...he is 25 I find this even more entertaining since Dave was the one that wanted this rule changed so badly. Funny stuff.

If competing is the key, then wouldnt signing a couple players like Nazr Mohammed and Dahntay Jones be the better move? Im all about competing, but regardless spending that much cash on Ariza is a mistake. On a side note, I think Hype gave a little too much for Swift but at least he's a center.

at least the hornets have some nice pieces he can build around. Like guys have said you have to over pay to get what you need really.
Chris I would not be talking about how poor of a job someone else is doing.

There is was no one worth for me to over pay, like I said earlier I am not trying to make a free agent splash but hopefully I can use my cap room to acquire more picks.

i think swift got way to big of a contract...
im suprised at how much nelson and mo got signed for this offseason since no one would ever offer shit for them in a trade
nelson puts up good numbers when starting but he really hurts you more then anything when he starts imo
mo is very good with some other scorers around him

spence how come you didn't make Taquan Dean and whatever guy pig said They suck. They would be available right now, so I thought it was pointless. No need to add medioce players that no one wants.

I liked Mo last year, but I wasnt about to give you a 1st when I could just sign him.

And I didnt want to make more mediocre players studly since ratings have become a bit more increased. I just dont see the need in adding FAs unless they are intriguing. Neither of these guys seemed intriguing to me.
