Yeah, definitely Jerome James has to be the worst signing we have made in many years.
I let my hope that it would work out cloud my evaluation of the signing, but it's obvious to everyone now that Isiah made a mistake in signing JJ. It's 20/20 hindsight and no one thought SF would be a weakness but how much better would our record be had we signed Gerald Wallace: 14 PPG, 6 RPG, 2 APG, 2 BPG, 2 SPG
Hey man, at least you see it now. But I don't think anyone could have thought JJ would have been THIS bad. But then again, his career what, 6, 7 and 3 doesn't exactly thrill the nerves. It's like I said, we should have really really looked into signing Dan Gaszurick or Hunter if we really wanted a backup C b/c those guys bring energy and DG is now in more control and playing smarter. But we were relying on James to not only be a solid player, but a friggin' starter, which isn't smart business, given his entire history.
I dont think DG was an option, but i agree about Hunter, we def could have gotten him for less than JJ.
Hunter would have been better than JJ but I can't say I'm devastated we don't have him. Gerald Wallace, however, would make a huge difference. He's better than any of our SFs by a margin of about 10 PPG, 3 RPG, 1.5 SPG, and 1.5 BPG.
