Yep. As I feared.

Salmons is not that good.

The big question becomes how bad that contract is going to be. He walked away from $21mil over 5yrs up in Toronto. And Raptors fans everwhere breathed a sigh of relief. How much exactly is he going to cost us? And why?

Career #s:

18.4min 5.1pts (.406 .329 .765) 2.1reb 1.8ast 0.7stl 0.1blk 1.0TO.......$4-5mil/yr for 5yrs???



The theory here has to be super-poor man's Doug, but sorry, Salmons ain't Doug. Not the athlete, not the impact. He's versatile..which in this case is another way of saying he's not really good at anything.

Petrie is coming on next to talk about the move. Looks like they are gonna let Bonzi walk (I guess they've pulled the $$$ offer off the table). This Salmons guy only averages 2 RBS per game. That's awful.

Once Bonzi rejected the Kings' fair offer, you knew this was going to happen. This is a move to allow K-Mart step into the starting role.
