I'm sure part of the reason he's jumping on this in December is so he can say "See? I told you this was a bad signing 3 months ago!" In fact, he called it the worst contract of the summer. But I don't know how anyone here can say that Jeff Green at $9 mil a year for 4 years was a good signing.
Because analysts alike keep ignoring cap situation, season's goal, the new CBA, the team make-up, the possible alternative, youth talent + tradeable asset.
The question is, who'd you rather have at this point in time than Jeff Green, and does the Jeff Green signing prevented that acquisition in any way?
We can moan and cry all we want about Jeff Green deserving this contract or not, but from both a business perspective and a basketball perspective, I'm hard pressed to find this supposed big downside to the Jeff Green signing to garner so much negative attention.
