Although fans are rightly excited about the addition of Turkish Thunder Ersan Ilyasova, there has been one note of discord. Given that we ended up having to drop Trevor Booker in order to create a roster spot for Ersan, and given that Booker, with his lane-clogging ways, never seemed to fit very well in our offense, why did we sacrifice a second-round pick to obtain him? After all, we could have simply cut Jah, or perhaps saved a little money by buying him out. Then we could have picked up someone to fill the roster spot; that someone would not have been as good a player as Booker but he would have been a better fit, so perhaps similarly valuable to our team.
