Two guys I am skeptical about acquiring are Arron Afflalo and Jodie Meeks (free agent), who both posted career-high PPG on bad teams.

Are there players who had a good 2013-2014 who you don't want to trade for or sign as a free agent because you think they had a career year and will never be as good in the future?

Basically everybody in a contract year.

But really, Kris Humphries is one. I hear some Celtic fans and media talk about giving him $6mill/year or so and it makes my head explode.

I think Gortat is going to end up overpaid as well.
