I'm not convinced its Babcock's fault for the Williams sisters or ZO. Vince screwed the organization by tanking it. It's entirely possible this was the best deal available.charlz said:The Raptors get little to no value in return for these guaranteed contracts.

E-Will when healthy is reasonable at 4M.
Blaming Babcock for Hoffa is a little harsh. He was parachuted into the organization just before the draft, and would have had to completely dis the months of work the scouting staff and McClosky had done, plus the VC "we need a centre" was still pulling things. If Babs was the best GM in hoops, he might have had the cojonnes to veto Hoffa. But Hoffa was not Babs idea.
You're missing the worst offender, Jalen Rose. When he's playing very well, he is severely overpaid. And he is playing like crap.
He is not tradeable. And there is no point. The best thing is to let his salary expire and get the cap space. And buy out Alvin.
