    He's gonna regret not taking that money. He's nowhere near worth it.

    Meant to make this a question. But I wouldn't be surprised if it were close

    Who would you rather go to, at this point? The Mavs or the Kings?

    As bad as the Kings are, they still have Karl and Cousins. I think I'd rather that then old Dirk, Carlisle, and a bare bones roster.

    Risky money. Could be a good signing if he returns to form but no guarantee.

    At this point Mavs are probably worse than the Kings. And Matthews is an idoit for turning down guaranteed money.

    True unless cousins leaves. It could be that he likes Cuban, and Cuban will give I'm parsons treatment?

    Why so much hate for Matthews? He's a legit 3D guy, the most coveted type of role player after stretch-4. Name 2 other guys not named Klay Thompson that are better 3D players at SG position. Players like Butler, Harden or Wade don't count because they are much more complete and deserving of max salary.

    Dallas Mavs love overpaying role players huh? Not to mention role players coming off of an achilles injury. Move will backfire on them and the Mavs were irrelevant before signing him and will remain irrelevant after signing him.

    Yea I like Matthews ( though still frustrated from how he handled Harden in the playoffs) but To play your game how about Danny Green?

    Gotta give Matthews a lot of credit. He earned this contract, but I just don't see him ever being a #2 option on a championship team.
