Holiday isn't a bargain until he proves it with his production. Dragic and Lillard have proven that already but Holiday hasn't come close to matching the type of efficiency needed to match his contract.

I'm watching the Pelicans play Portland and Holiday is definitely worth his contract... We really need to replace Aminu because it's crazy how much they sag off of him...
I want to see this debate play out. P78 has been tooting this horn on Holiday for a long time about his inefficiency. If I had to bet, MM is factoring Holiday's ability to play both sides of the ball & expected offensive progression into the value equation.

That AND doing away with Gordon. Holiday was just so much better w/o him last year. The Holiday/Tyreke pairing was an unstoppable force. Jrue was more aggressive in the half court and Tyreke killed teams in transition. Notice, the Portland game just talked about - who was missing from that game. Oh yeah - Eric Gordon! Get him off this team and pair Holiday with Tyreke more often and his numbers will be fine.
Holiday does have to get to the line more. He does that, and his efficiency issues are gone, and yes, his defense is excellent.
I don't want Andre Miller anywhere near this team.
Why? Andre Miller would be a heck of an option. He is like Derrick Fisher without the rings. That guy is going to make a good coach one day.
He hasn't lasted in the league for over a decade because of his good looks. The guy can play better than any of our current backups...or maybe Brian Roberts is your cup of tea.
A cool thing about Andre Miller:
His off-seasons consist of not touching a basketball or working out, but lounging about eating cheeseburgers.
Yet he can still ball out like crazy. That's about what I so with my summer to. I don't want him either and I doubt Washington let's him go cause he was huge of their bench. He may not be athletic but he has high iq. Knows how to play the game.

Actually, if I remember correctly, Holiday had reached up to 52% TS before the shin splits starting effecting him and he had the terrible 4 game stretch.

the last three #10 picks... cj mccollum, austin rivers & jimmer freddette... not really any guys that people are crying about missing out on
While Vasquez very likely may still have been traded, I don't think we would have moved Lopez if we didn't sign Tyreke. Shoot, under this scenario, I think we could have signed Tyreke and kept Lopez since we wouldn't have had Jrue's contract.
And who knows, maybe Ryan Anderson doesn't get hurt if we didn't bring in Jrue and maybe Tyreke.
I bet we would go 82-0 if our arena was on the moon.
that last post pretty much indicates where this thread has gone.....
