Without looking, I'm positive the second one is Evan Turner.

The shooting percentages for the first look a lot like Chief, but I know he's played more than 11 games and rebounds better than that. My second guess is Chandler Parsons, but has he even played in 11 games?

Hmmm.... one of them is our guy... I was going to say #2 was ET... but I think that's too high of a FG% (like... way).

Has ET shot 42%? Seems like it'd be a lot lower.

I think player 2 is Turner as well, and that player 1 is indeed Chandler Parsons who passed on us to play in Elvis land....a real screwed if you do, screwed if you don't scenario....though at least Turner is starting to play better. Looks like Parsons has become plagued by his injuries, good thing we didn't get him, had he signed here, his knee probably would have popped off and walked away.
 
or this is a trick question and both players are Evan Turner, player 1 is Evan turner after the first eleven games, then player 2 is Evan Turner after 33 games...damn

First guy seems like the still recovering Chandler Parson and second is ET? Difference is one is recovering from a knee surgery and one is healthy...

Two other rather significant differences:

The first signed a 4yr/$94 million contract and has missed 95 games over the past six and a half seasons (including 25 games this year and 21 games last year).

The second signed a 4yr/$70 million contract and has missed a total of 6 games over the past six and a half years.

So Parsons makes more, plays less and plays worse when he plays.

It's the curse of rejecting the Blazers. It's not limited to players who reject Olshey. Spurn us and prepare to SUCK!!! Take THAT Hedo! Suck it Hibbert! Fuck you Monroe! Kiss my ass Parsons!!!

Oh how I wish we could make an offer to Harden this summer!

Without looking, I'm going to guess Myles Plumlee and Meyers Leonard. But that's only because I mentioned Plumlee in another thread.

EDIT: Boy was I wrong.

Whiteside finally broke the trend. Having a career year.
 
Did he REALLY reject us? It was DAL, not us, he used as leverage to get the max offer from MIA.

“Portland was my second option,” Whiteside said at the team’s Saturday shootaround in Portland. “I would have came here.”

The answer from Whiteside was interesting, considering that Portland hasn’t figured prominently in the previous telling of his free agency courtship.

ESPN.com reported last week that Portland “chased” Whiteside in free agency, but nothing was said of Whiteside’s interest.
 

Yes, I've seen that. We were his second choice for where he actually WANTED to play, but unlike Hedo, Hibbert etc., he did not use our interest as leverage to get the contract he wanted from the team that was his first choice. DAL wasn't his first, or second choice, but they were the ones he met with first and used as leverage to get the max offer he wanted from MIA.

I would have never wanted Hedo or Hibbert here after the way they played us. I'd still take Whiteside in a heartbeat. His interest in us was genuine. He wasn't just using us to get what he wanted elsewhere.

I don't quite understand the notion that Hibbert "played us". The way I recall the narrative, he was all set to sign an offer sheet with us, but when we were informed that Indy would match it, we simply backed off. I don't recall any Hedo-istic narrative around Hibbert.

I don't understand the difference between rejecting us and "using us as leverage."

It was the typical play the market, see what someone else will give you and we'll match. He used us as the barometer for what the market would bear. He may not have held all the cards, but he still used us to get the most he could out of IND.

Hibbert, as an RFA is an example. He used us as leverage to get the best offer possible out of IND, but as an RFA didn't really have the option to reject us. We pulled our offer when we learned IND was planning to match, but had he signed the offer sheet, it would have been IND's choice, not his whether he ended up here, or not.

Whiteside, as a UFA both used DAL for leverage AND rejected them. As a UFA, he had the option to choose DAL's offer, but made the choice to reject them and accept MIA's comparable offer.
