I suppose Josh has an option, so I guess he would make a little bit of sense. I still wonder if we are overvaluing this whole thing by a lot.
Wade is obviously a huge long shot. But Damp's contract is significantly more valuable from a savings perspective than Stack's was, so there's absolutely no question that the precedent is there for Damp's contract to bring a Marion level player.
