Harris would've been much better than Kenny Wright and Mike Rumph after Springs went down. I NEVER thought I'd appreciate Harris, but he had a hell of a year in SF.

Harris isn't twice the player Wright is (not over the span of his career) yet he's getting paid twice the money over the next two years.
