$20 million? Man, I remember when Deion got a $13 million bonus from the Cowboys and people thought that was the first sign of the apocalypse.Atlanta will replace Belkin as governor with co-owner Michael Gearon Jr., who then will approve the deal made July 31. Johnson will sign a five-year, $69.6 million contract, which includes a $20 million payment up front, with Phoenix and then be traded to the Hawks in exchange for guard Boris Diaw, two first-round draft choices with some lottery protections and a $4.9 million trade exception.
Why is that a bad thing? For the Suns at least ;-)
$20mil for JoJo is nuts.
That is insane. 20mil wow!!!!
That's just because the contract is frontloaded -- certainly made it difficult to match.
The Suns were going to match. They even offered 6yr/$75mil, but he wants to be "the man" in Atlanta. Go figure.
