And he won't sign his next contract in a food court, that's for sure..LOL
Milsap pre-draft measurements:
Height w/o Shoes Height w/shoes Weight Wingspan Standing Reach Body Fat No Step Vert Max Vert Bench Press Lane Agility 3/4 Court Sprint Class Rank
6' 6.25" 6' 7.25" 258 7' 1.5" 8' 9.5" 9.7 28.5 32.5 15 11.67 3.30 38
Blair's pre-draft measurement:
6' 5.25" 6' 6.5" 277 7' 2" 8' 10.5" 12.0 26.0 33.0 18 11.50 3.45 NA
Blair is hort by an inch, but.... has a one inch reach advantage!
Vertical leap and sprint about even.
Blair is heavier and stronger.
If Blair matches Millsap's success then we got a guy for $3.8m for four years that others are paying $32m (Millsap's latest contract). What a steal!

Hopefully if he lives up to expectations the fo will throw him a couplle more duckets. It would pain me to see a guy work hard and get less
Re: Blair Signing is now 4 Years
I have a question: what is the maximum you can offer to a 2nd-round for his first year?
And what is he's already 30 when he joined NBA?

There are virtually no rules regarding signing 2nd round picks. There is no rookie scale or anything.

If you've got the cap room you can offer a 2nd round pick a max contract if you wanted to.

A player's age makes no difference as to what you can pay him.

Wow. If I got paid like that, I'd gut it our for four years and retire. I'd never have to work another day in my life.
It's too bad that some of these guys have no idea how good they have it.
