    Pistons are definitely justifying this by the market...and I guess I get that(as Harlem said, not a lot of alternatives)...but you gotta think there isn't a single team out there that gives him an offer sheet this steep. They probably could've waited it out and matched and saved themselves 10-15 million. But it's not my circus, so it.

    What I'm surprised about is the length of the contract. Wondering if there's a team option in the fifth.

    People thought Reggie Jackson was crazy to turn down an offer of $12 million a year from OKC. But his agent, Aaron Mintz, got that & more.

    I'm not sure how the NBAPA suckered the owners into a salary cap as high as the one projected next year, there's no way the NFL's owners would ever get tricked like that
    That's true, but NFL players are morons, tbh..

    All these complaints from people that don't understand that their shelf life is short and they're 1 hit away from ending their career(and potentially their lives)..

    He'll get David West syndrome after a while. Have a lot of money but will be tired of losing and will go to a good team for cheap.

    Van Gundy with the Dice roll. I guess you could look at it as a moveable contract with a nice expiring in the final year. They would be smart to move on from Jennings.

    I think it's a lower percentage of the average basketball related income than the previous collective bargaining agreement had. I have no ing idea how the TV deal got so high this time around to push the BRI up so much though, it's not like Jordan unretired.

    Yeah, the NBA salary cap is a significantly lower share of revenue than it was under the 2005 CBA. Back then it was 57% of basketball related income, now it goes between 49%-51% of BRI and the luxury tax is way more punitive now than it was under the old CBA. The lowest level of luxury tax is now a $1.50 per dollar tax, and it shoots up quick to $2.00 per dollar, then $3.00 per dollar, up to I think $4.00 per dollar over.

    Jennings tore his ACL and they need a point guard. It's not as bad as the Matthews contract.
    Wesley Matthews just got $14.25 million off a torn ACL. DeMarre Carroll just got $15 million a season. Honestly $16 million a season doesn't sound so crazy for Jackson with what people have been getting paid.
    You do know an Achilles rupture is much different than an ACL tear, right?

    ing , I don't know why I wrote ACL tear when I meant achilles tear. Achilles tear is so much worse.

    It's contracts like these that'll have owners asking for amnesty provisions in the next agreement.
