    Poll needs a “no, because he sucks at a superstar salary”

    Negative. Jabari at least plays defense. Zach may give you great offensive numbers, but he is so bad defensively that his presence on the court is a negative. His on/off numbers historically have been in the negatives.

    We don't have the salary to make a trade for Zach work, but even if we did, I highly doubt the Rockets would be interested.

    Those guys were all key parts of winning teams that went deep into the playoffs. Has Lavine ever had team success anywhere he’s gone?

    An Annual Lavine is a Greek expression for a really wild sexual adventure.

    They all had relations with their team's superstars' wives and mothers too

    In 9 months that expiring contract is an asset, but now we'd need to throw in the kitchen sink to keep Capella

    Bad defense, can't play make for others, low BBIQ. This dude sucks and there is a reason why his teams are always bad. Despite the nice stats he kills your team.

    Defense is the one thing this team can develop, shooting on the other hand...

    His on/off numbers are uninspiring though

    Teague has a good take

    lol. And even then, they were better for team chemistry than Zach Lavine.
