    I'm one of them, considering we gave a stiff who barely played last year and has a bum knee 64 million.

    I think we are at the point where we shouldn't compare these new deals with the old ones.

    Hey look, a reasonable deal! He should probably find a new agent.

    You have to approach them like a percentage of the cap instead of just the numbers. Most of the contracts seem a little more reasonable that way, but there's still been a lot of bad ones.

    Do you think there is any player that will get signed for less than 6mil?
    I dont even know where moore played last year and he got freaking 9 per year...
    With these contracts i can only say that only underpayed players will be real allstars and superstars...couse if conley gets 30 than durant deserves 40-50 per year.

    houston going full dantoni with big deals to ryan anderson and eric gordon. assuming they retain motiejunas, they're going to score a ton of points. and finish 8th or 9th.

    Mavs have offered Barnes a 4 year max contract.

    Cavs are gonna be pissed.

    If Kevin Durant goes to Boston when he could have been a Laker, I'll never like him again. I don't want Boston winning anything.

    I wonder how we missed out on landing Kevin Durant?

    17 wins probably had a lot to do with it...
