Anthony Davis playing on an injury tends not to play well. Suns +7 is a great bet. I think the Sun might win this assuming Paul is closer to his normal play.

Question concerning CP3

He has a $39.8M player option coming up.

His stock is the highest it will ever be. Should he decline, and try and go to another team like the Knicks for less money, but multiple years?

For example = a 3 year (2 plus player option), $60-75M deal (20-25M a year)

Or does he bet on himself and take the $40M player option, then see what he can get in free agency the following year?

Based on his age, I am not sure how many years he can actually get under the CBA. You don't turn down $40 mil unless you can guarantee much more than that. Dude is a beast and floor raiser but he's also 6'0, 36, and always hurt. :usure: you wanna be locked into paying him $20-$25 mil in two years (if you even can that is)?

ayton is shooting 83% this series :heh:

If this dude just shot more

I mean in the reg season he was avg 10 fga attempts a game

Mostly assisted buckets.He has a soft touch around the basket, but he's incapable of creating his own offense at this point.No face up...infantile post moves.He's definitely not confident in ability to ISO.He'll probably get more shots once he develops a skill set.

If you're a title contender, you sign Paul and manage his minutes/gms...If your not a title contender, you pass.

What title contender has $25 mil available? Chris has been having his minutes managed. He just suffers injuries at the worst time every year no matter what. If you are a title contender with $25 mil, you probably have better options.
