As far as I know the most they could have offered him for this season was 23 mil, word is he chose between 20 mil for 1 yr or a multi year deal 3-4 yr in the neighborhood of 60 mil.
Didnt realize that. Interesting he turned down a 3 year deal

Maybe he thinks he can out earn that as the cap goes up on 1 year deals?

If the cap is 89 mil next summer, he would be worth 27 mil based on the contract % he just signed
In 2017 cap is supposed to be at 108 mil, he would be worth 32-33 mil based on this contract %

Now lets make it a bit more realistic since his production will slow slightly, 22-25 next summer, 30-32 mil in 2017 as a farewell paycheck

Wade can still cake if he continues his most recent production.

Will be interesting to watch this dynamic continue to play out. Its not risky for Bron to do these 1 year deals, Wade .... Im not so sure...

Can we talk about how cp3 is running deandre out of town? And Deandre thinks blake is leaving after 2 years too? :scust:


So Deandre and Blake are cool

Deandre doesn't like CP3

CP3 doesn't care enough about Deandre or Blake to care enough what they think...

Makes perfect sense now...Clippers are at a crossroads in their fukking franchise history where they either going to continue to be "good" or start falling back to a lottery team and CP0 on vacation with Bron and Wade asking them if he can wear one of their wings :russ:

If Deandre leave I don't care if the Spurs get Aldridge or not I am going to start recruiting blake right now :russ:

Yesterday in the team offseason thread I said I preferred to see him do a multi-year deal, the 1 yr is betting on yourself but it also gives the team maximum flexibility. Like another poster said both sides get what they want.

Few weeks ago this situation was looking grim but everything has worked out, as a fan I continue to be impressed with Riley. You go from losing LeBron last summer to getting Deng, finding a gem in Whiteside, trading for Dragic, missing the playoffs but lucking up on a perimeter talent in Winslow, to having no money but somehow still managing to get at a table with LaMarcus Aldridge. I'll be happy when this free agency shyt is over so I can go back to getting my 8 hours of sleep
