He averaged 18/9 on a bad team for two months. Thats really all it takes now I suppose.

After further contemplation, I now realize I went into the wrong line of work.

His deal and Shumpert's deal were the biggest head-scratchers for me.

I think both were a case of overestimating the market and/or the role that inflation would play in said market(s).
