Wow.

Wow.

I heard he declined 3/21 but if he declined 5/35 shortly after, I second that - Wow!

Now that the Raptors have signed Turkoglu, no one's gonna give him more than the full MLE.

Did Frank Johnson even have a system? Marion looked pretty good playing for him.

What? Marion isn't a max player?

Well his FG% and rebounding shot up dramatically when DA took over(result of playing PF with other guys that wouldn't rebound i imagine).
His scoring,steals and blocks were very similiar throughout.
Marion should be in his prime right now, yet his numbers have dramatically fallen off since leaving D'Antoni's system....this is key.
Do you disagree that Marion's best seasons came under DA's system as a result of the system?

He shot fewer threes with D'antoni as coach than with FJ. He is a bad 3pt shooter so the FG% thing makes sense.
