Yeah I was going to say this too. All the other guys probably want multi-year deals and there's no one I love that much or could afford, save the money for 2015. I'd rather find someone like Salmons who would accept a 1 year deal and be a slight upgrade this year to get a major upgrade in the offseason.
Yeah why can't we just wait. Hopefully we magically had cap Space and can still use the re

Why do we have to have a willie green on this team every year. Just expect him to get a ton a minutes to with Monty.

some of yall refuse to be happy
salmons is a legit NBA player...not a d leaguer like lance thomas, greg steimsma, darius miller, southerland, etc etc that this team has been running out there lately. yall dont even know the terms of the deal...it might not even all be guaranteed. and even if it is, if he stinks he wont play.
Fair enough. I think we needed something for fans to get mad at Monty about. It was all going too smoothly. This will be the guy.
But my thing is that, Willie Green wasn't the reason we won or lost games. It was always about those core guys. Same will happen here. Whoever the backup is will have a great game one night and people will say, "See, Monty should play him more! He's an idiot!"
But it is all a distraction from the real guys that matter. Those guys will win or lose games for us.
By some of the post in here people were looking for any reason to bash Dell
LOL this place is hilarious. He didn't get the player you wanted so now Dell sucks. "Why didn't we sign Player X!?" Some of y'all forget that free agency is a 2-way street, and maybe... juuuust maybe... Dell reached out to other guys, and the interest wasn't mutual.
But its whatever. The offseason is over anyway right?
Anyone who doesn't hustle and get back on defense after a sho, always hurts his team.

•I hope they don't put Salmon in the starters role. Remember the SF spot have a vacancy

What in the world did you people expect to get with the RE? Salmons seems to be to be a prototypcial Room exception player...solid veteran, does some things good, has flaws, can give you minutes but is not gonna set the world on fire. This team has always been SF by committee, and we all should have known that that would continue for this coming season. That's what you get for $2 Million. It is what it is.
If there is another move associated with this then fine, I understand. But John Salmons is the epitome of a player that I don't want us to sign. The only thing he's got going is he's a vet....yimmpe. Played in 60 games last year (20mpg) and made 63 3-pointers, so let's stop acting like he's the shooter we've been waiting for. Doesn't even attempt to try to play defense, and I was worried about Casspi
I'd rather a guy like Southerland (and I don't even like him) who at least has the potential to be a below average-average defender and shows some promise of an upside as compared to a guy who's just there. If we still have our RLE and he's a guy who will barely see the floor I'm fine with that, but if he in any real rotation, lol.
But with one of the youngest teams in the league, why are we not considering veteran leadership as important an attribute as anything else. I mean, besides defensive rebounding from Hamilton, what does either of those guys do better on the court than Salmons? Because I know they are not savvy players or leaders or experienced in the way Salmons is.
Huh. That's something. Not good o bad. Roger Mason with a different name.
