Guess he thinks he has some kind of leverage. If I'm the Warriors, I don't
think I'd budge.

I'd rather have Azubuike. One overpaid former Laker scrub is enough.

Upside has to better on Kelenna. But I don't think I've ever even seen the
other guy play, so I don't know what their relative strengths are, other
than what I read.

He's one of those guys that would make you want to throw things at the TV
when the Warriors' great defense would let him score lots of points when
Kobe is off the floor. Got traded to Orlando in the middle of last year
for Trevor Ariza. OK player, no upside.

This all just proves that "age old adage" that 2/3 swing guys are a dime a
dozen, easy to find, easy to replace. If you can save a mil or 2 on Evans,
why not?. He's got some nice shooting percentages. I don't know what he's
like as a defender.

Well, apparently he tried to hold out for money than Kelenna. Now he's
got no job. Stupid thing to do when you're a scrub. You should be
thankful you have an NBA job at all.

Indeed, for most of those guys, if somebody's holding out a multi-year,
multi-million per year contract, don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
