I cannot imagine the Spurs maxing him out. But I do imagine offering him a similar deal that LMA got 70mil/3years

Bad news if true tbh, if they do max him out and also calls into question the future of the core of Murray, White, and Walker. Making such a commitment to DDR means that he'll be eating up a lot of minutes on the wing for years to come.
A max extension for DDR would be;
Year 1 (2020-2021)-$33.3 Million
Year 2 (2021-2022)-$35.9 Million
Year 3 (2022-2023)-$38.6 Million
Year 4 (2023-2024)-$41.3 Million
=$149 million

maxing him out is one of the worst deal ever. They sign it im not a spurs fan anymore
If it’s a deal like LA got that would be fine, hopefully it’s not some crazy number
I’d still say the Pau Gasol deal is worse. Some team out there would probably give him the max in FA.
Smfh. PATFO deserves every bad thing coming to them if they max out this er.
FWIW,the article says Max Contract Extension.
Not Max Contract.The Max part goes to the extension bit.(Pretty much like the latest Draymond Green Max Contract Extension).
I would wait and see what they are going to do. It would not be wise to rule it out or in at this stage.
Terrible idea to retain Dumbmar at any cost.
I think the writer confused “max him out” with “ship him out.”
They were able to get out of the Gasol deal after 2 years though, granted they are still paying him $5 million this year but even then they got that amount reduced.

DeRozan's deal would be a mess tbh.
I’m never in favor of maxing out players that you probably won’t be able to trade if things goes south.
No need to bid against yourselves Spurs. Just wait until next summer. I think it’ll be a tepid market for him.
DeMar is a quality player on a good team. That's all and he may be as good as he'll get. That does not warrant tying up $120-140MM of cap space. Not at all.
This is not going to happen IMO and so nothing to worry about. Might be something as simple as Mike talking to someone and they literally mention it in passing since the ability to do so exists (but no real intention)
Why in the world would you Max a player who didn't want to be here, and you didn't want him, other than settling on him as part of trading a disgruntled player.
Add to that he's only played one year with you and outside of shiny numbers still had several red flags, personality and play wise. This report can't possibly be legitimate otherwise the FO must be operating on punishing ownership in some way.
There isn't a single reason to extend DDR. Not a single one.
But there are multiple compelling reasons to get rid of him.
Yeah, Max him out for a trade partner. But Max him out for future with Spurs? Hahahaha I think the alcoholism in the front office would be far worse than what we previously imagined.
Spurs wouldn't even max Kawhi, I'll be damned it they max DeRozan after one average season.
why would the spurs publicly rule out giving a max contract to their best (or 2nd best) player before the season starts?
That's what I was thinking. This is the year of whether DeMar works with the Spurs and the young core or not. If they contend and DeMar is the core then you give him a hefty contract but you definitely dont rule it out if that is what DeRozan is seeking. It's a poker game at this point on contract negotiations.
WTH Kawhi was on a max contract.
