I think it's a fair deal
It's not like they overpaid for him. That's pretty much market value for a guy like him.
Omer Asik is getting $12 mil/yr, Pekovic is getting $12 mil/yr, Gortat is getting 12 mil/yr, Bogut is getting $12 mil/yr, Chandler got 13 mil/yr, Hibbert is getting like $16 mil/yr. And mind you, he's younger than all of those guys
I get that
Youve got 42 mil a year committed to
Melo/porzingis/grant/lopez
Cap is 89. Can you add enough talent with 47 mil to compete to get out the first round? You dont have your pick, so you cant add an impact guy for a 3-4 mil rookie salary.
