Bonner contract start at $3.05M per realgm.
Not bad.![]()
If that's the case, he didn't get that "significant raise" that many have been complaining about.
thank god.
So with that figure, does that mean that the max the deal could be is 4yr/$13.75M? I'm guessing that there is a team option (at least) on the fourth year (which should make it closer to 3yr/$9.9M deal).
Depending of the structure of the contract, Bonner contract is between $10.3M and $14.1M for 4 years.

Yes. And that word is "patience." @SportsMensch any word on RJ?EricB? lolJMcDonald_SAEN
Guys who are 6-foot-10 and can make 40 percent of their 3s are a rare commodity. Simple supply & demand @Ericb1980 What am I missing?
We should also remember that Matt Bonner's previous contracts had incentives based on free throw and 3-point shooting percentages. If I had to guess, there's probably a good chance that this new contract has similar wording.
So the forum melted down over Bonner getting a 4 yr/ $14 mil contract, which starts at $3.0 mil. OK.
According to the NBATV ticker the Mavs were the ones to actually re-sign Bonner
Could be a raise if the contract escalates and averages out higher than the last year of his contract. I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up at 4yrs, $14M...not gawd awful.
I damn hope his deal has a decreasing or at least a flat structure. Paying $4M a 34 years old Bonner would truly suck. If the last year wasn't fully guaranteed or was a team option, it would be great too.
I asked why give a raise to bonner, that was his response. Turns out it's a pay decrease.
I can't wait to see the final numbers on this contract. Three years for $11 million and a non-guaranteed fourth season would make it a solid contract.
4 years from now the Spurs will be playing the lottery.
I hope the last two seasons or at least the last one is a team option...
The original report mentioned a raise. Without looking at the contract is hard to tell when the raise would happen.
I'm thinking three years from now.
Who cares about the contract, Bonner shouldn't be back.

The new contract is expected to exceed the annual salary of $3.2 million he earned last season.
yes, he should - Tim's blocks have gone down over the years and Splitter, Blair and McDyess are not big in blocks either. Bonner definitely helps in that area
