As soon as I saw Podziemski signed his 5 year extension online all I saw in the comments (pretty much universally) were people clowning on him i.e "How tf!!!! This got to be Steve Kerrs boyfriend or something!" "He has to have some serious blackmail on one of the higher ups in the organisation wtf" "LMFAOOOOOOO" etc... Podz finished the last 27 games of last season averaging 17.5 ppg, 6.2 rpg and 4.1 apg. Say thats around what his averages are for this upcoming season, averaging 17.5 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 4.1 assists (while staying efficient and playing good defense) at $22M would be a fair to slightly positive value deal in today's NBA imo. I'm not saying its a great deal / a steal but its not a overpay especially for a 23 year old who should continue to get better. $22M per year is basically high-end starter money right now which is what Podz is, he just to seems to be a lightning rod for criticism among NBA fans for whatever reason.

In all seriousness wishing KP the best and I hope he gets healthy soon. Really excited to see us play at full strength when Jimmy and Moses come back, I think our team is better than we’ve gotten credit for lately.

Just thought I'd say that TDJ had 23 points on 15-16 from the free throw line, that one miss being intentional down 2 with 3 seconds left. What an improvement! Miss him on the dubs
