Mike Conley re-ups for 5 years/$45M

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

And I didn't miss a decimal. He really did just get one of the worst contracts in history.

Makes Parker's contract look fantastic..

[Jose Canseco]

WTH?!?! Conley sucks

[IronMexican]

That's just awful.

[Stump]

He's still with the Grizzlies, right? That owner is a complete moron.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Makes Gilbert Arenas's contract look respectable.

[mystargtr34]

Bull ..

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

And since I respect Matt Moore's writing, it's hard (yet still a little funny) to watch him flame out.

His KT is worse than Luke Walton's!

[kamikazi_player]

First Rudy Gay a max contract and now Conley with 9 mil a year? If O.J. gets a max contract, I don't know what to say.

[dirk4mvp]

OJ the Juiceman should get out of that hole as soon as he can.

[Jose Canseco]

Mike Conley Sr and Bill Duffy just ran a train on Chris Wallace

[noob cake]

Still will be nickel and diming their rookies next year...

[DeadlyDynasty]

just Memphis FO doing what it's supposed to do, nothing to see here...

[Darrin]

WTH?!?! Conley sucks

15.7 ppg, 8.3 apg, 5.7 rpg, and 3.7 spg through 3.

Conley has been playing better than OJ so far in this young campaign. I think this is a fair price for him.

[mingus]

he's actually a good player. he's probably not going to live up to that contract. he's worth 6 mil max 7 mil a year.

[Jose Canseco]

15.7 ppg, 8.3 apg, 5.7 rpg, and 3.7 spg through 3.

11.0 ppg, 4.7 apg, 2.9 rpg, 1.2 spg through 218

[z0sa]

15.7 ppg, 8.3 apg, 5.7 rpg, and 3.7 spg through 3.

Those two words being the key ones, of course ..

[AussieFanKurt]

He's been ballin'

[kamikazi_player]

15.7 ppg, 8.3 apg, 5.7 rpg, and 3.7 spg through 3.

You do understand it's only 3 games, look at his overall production over the years. Not clearly worth 9 mil a year.

[noob cake]

I really don't get how Grizzlies gave him $9m a year after 3 games. Even Wallace is not stupid enough to think that 11/3/5 lotto point guard is worth than MLE type money.

I mean Luis Scola only got a 47/5 contract.

[Jose Canseco]

He's been ok. Had a very good game against Atlanta but they lost. He sucked against Dallas. Then they played Minnesota where of course he was going to play well. Three games is still only three games. I don't see how anyone can look at three games where he was actually up and down to justify $9 million a year.

Midlevel exemption at best, don't know how they are going to rebuild if they keep re-signing these players with long term big money contracts. I bet they're going to overpay O.J. Mayo, probably like 5 million less than max i presume.

That sounds like 1m/year more than Conley's contract.
