Love the fire and passion though, it's awesome and a fun time/place to be.

There was a good article somewhere that said bidding on a restricted free agent has a lot downside. We can all remember Chandler Parsons and how it felt like Dallas had to wait and sweat.... and wait and sweat. Then when Houston didn't match and we got him, it felt like we had just acquired a top tier free agent.

It's always possible to overpay badly.... and it's not like Brogdon has a long track record to evaluate. It's entirely possible that both media and the fans have inflated his value now to the point that his acquisition looks too expensive.
