its funny. He was top of the line when i bought him season 6.he got cut from the USA nt after my purchase, since i had no desire to train him and caps had just come into play and it was assumed he was near his cap. through about season 8 he still was solid against any center in d2. after that was the decline. his salary was inflated by his shotblocking rating, but he pulls in a ton of merchandise (even with my piece of shit record im still well above average for merchandise)anyway, its time for him to go while he has some value.
and yes, paiva was a failed science experiment.hes still trainable at 22, and could actually be an interesting player if trained right
