He turned down a max contract to stay in San Antonio tbh...
From 07 to '11 Manu was earning every damn penny of that and then some. It's not uncommon for players to be "overpaid" near the end of their contract. Timmy and KG were both making north of 20 million last season. Kirby is making 30 million next year. Jax is getting paid 10 million. RJ will be getting 10 million next season. All Manu's contract means is cap relief after the season while not being a tremendous burden now.

manu spent almost his entire life playing as the 6th man in san antonio and had been selected into the all-star game multiple times. if he ever moved to a mid-table team and became the #1 he would've easily raked in superstar stats like beard does in houston imho. he was already a key part of the team around 05 and he was earning 6-7m a year something, when he was already a familiar face in all star games
He'll re-sign for 6-8 mil in the off-season.
