An interesting article from Yahoo Sports. This is the paragraph about TD:

When San Antonio reaches 62 wins (it has 59 now), Duncan will receive a bonus of $750,000. The bonus will be added to his current salary of $5.25 million for a cap hit of $6 million this season. The Spurs will see their tax bill increase from $3.8 million to $4.9 million. For next season, Duncan’s salary will increase from $5.64 million to $6.4 million. The Spurs will lose an extra $750,000 in cap space next summer once the bonus is achieved. This of course only applies if Duncan opts in to his contract in June. Because the team bonus would be achieved, the NBA deems the bonus likely.

Here is the complete history: http://sports.yahoo.com/news/front-office-insider--stay-away-from-declared-underclassmen-142355106.html

He deserves every penny, as much as any player ever has. Wonderful player + wonderful gentleman.

The contrast between Duncan and Kobme, DWade etc is Grand Canyon.

Damn, we could probably use that cap space. Wonder if he can defer the bonus?

Don't put Wade into the same boat as Kobe. He took less to get Lebron to come to town. Yes, he's probably going to be overpaid going forward, but has Kobe ever taken one for the team?
