Don't worry Nono, Manu is gonna get paid after his contract too. Spurs have to after not letting him play in the WC.![]()

its expensive, but its good insurance while Mills recovers from his shoulder injury
Spurs falling into the lifetime achievement contract trap

Speedy Claxton got screwed out of $44 million in comparison![]()
damn tony is the only one and that list with a ring
He is the oldest player in the top 25 if I'm not mistaken just by quickly scrolling down the list. The consensus that I've seen from Spurs fans is that his performance has been declining more rapidly than they have hoped.
his peak was one season ago. he wasn't quite as good this year, though the hope is that it was attributable to being worn down. it was already do ented that he was hurt during the 2013 finals, but didnt get time off in the offseason due to international play. the hope is that by taking the summer off he can get back to the 2013 "MVParker" level, or at least somewhere between there and last season. if he does, he's easily worth the salary and then some
15 Mil a year isn't a bad deal for a guy who averaged nearly 17 PPG on .499 Shooting with 6 Assists in the Spurs system is pretty damn good.
Deron Williams at close to 20 Mil a year![]()
How many years/$ is it?
Oh i see. I doubt be a $15m a year player when hes 35 but this is a pretty standard deal IMO.
yeah thats in line with my thought process. obviously we always want lower numbers as fans, but its a fair deal. spurfan has been spoiled by cheap deals lately. Duncan taking 10/year, Manu taking 7 (though many ed about it, he was worth every penny this season), Mills now getting 3.5, Diaw getting 7, Leonard getting peanuts, Green getting 4. the parker deal is the first one in a while where it doesn't feel like we got "a good deal"
It's still a decent deal. He had his best season 2012-2013 and never seemed to be at 100% last season. With a full off-season to recover he will come back strong and back to near his best next season.
He was really awful last year, hopefully it was mostly due to fatigue from Summer basketball, rather than the beginning of an ugly decline, tbh..
somebody notice me pls

We apologize for not noticing you
Parkers performance this past season was largely due to him playing year round following the '13 NBA Finals and with the French National Team.
That being said he still averaged 16.7 ppg and 5.7 apg.
He will only be 35 when the contract is up. I'd be surprised if his production doesn't increase.
Manu's production increased last season after having a full summer off following the '13 Finals.
Its not a bad deal.
He wasn't that bad but his defense was awful. He did lead the team in scoring in the NBA Finals (18ppg) I'm betting that his play will improve.
Spurs FO once again getting over on the league and taking full advantage of the CBA. MA NIGGGA TP taking one for the team, cares more about rings than $$$$
ing brilliant move by both sides. Love it
