You are right, but I also remember somebody mentioning that they were probably trying to get both deals done to announce them together, and that makes sense to me. Let's see if Ayton will budge a bit from his full max request (according to what I've read). I guess if we really aren't offering even ...

That means no deal for Ayton I assume? I guess I can live with that, long as we don't fracture that relationship.

I wouldn’t make that assumption as the deadline isn’t until tomorrow.

Yes! The Ayton signing can't be far behind.

And man, talk about life changing money. Congrats to Mikal.

OK, thanks. Buchanan was a little bit before my time.

2nd worst?! Who was first?

Hey guys, give FLEX a break. He played the game. Not only that, he’s a dam[sic] good speller to[sic].

We haven’t exercised our team options on Cam Johnson or Jalen Smith yet either, should we be worried?

Of course!

OK, fellas. I kicked it off. Where's the Google sheet, wpmiller?

You just seem so sure we’re lowballing him. Anyways I should stop commenting, I said I wasn’t going to worry about it until after the deadline passes and I keep clearly worrying about. That's a good idea. Let's wait and see if it gets done by the deadline and if not, then we have a whole year to wo...

So say we all.

And to be totally honest, if Ayton was like that, the deal would be done already and he'd be getting the full max. Probably would have happened the first day it could have.

So, you're saying Ayton's escalators don't go to the top floor?

Marks makes a good point that they'll get even more expensive if we wait. Just make it happen, Saver! It would be another notch on his penny wise, pound foolish belt if it doesn't happen before the deadline.

Lock them up!

Everyone keeps saying 3.5T, when that is a ten year figure. Annually it is 350B, which is less than half the money the US spends each year blowing things up and killing people. Maybe it makes sense to spend about half of your "blowing things up" budget on "building things up" in...

We've come so far in a couple years. Remember when we used to just pass the ball around at the top of the key? So thankful for Jones and Monty.

YES! Complete trust in FF.

And the argument is that the $3.5t bill is fiscally irresponsible?

I can't quite reconcile myself either.

I don't think that's a dem/rep thing. Nobody can reconcile that.

What if Bridges and Ayton are both asking for the max? How do we navigate that? In that sense we may need to let it play out and sign them next offseason. Serious question for most here. Does Bridges deserve a max and Ayton doesn't? I feel Ayton has proven and shown far more consistency than Bridge...

I loved the series. Never thought about ranking the seasons. Enjoyed it all.
