That Chris Bosh contract is crazy.

It makes my pancreas hurt.

Wow, talk about localized pain! I'm not even sure where my pancreas is!

I feel it was negotiations from the begginning. He says 16 we say 12, he wants the max and given a 5 year plus an ETO we wanted four We agree in the middle We will give Goran the same contract next year but maybe just a four year contract since he is older we have the best three guard rotation in the league. Why are so many complaining so much. We have tucker green and now TJ at the three. We are deep talented and still 4 million under the current cap with two more picks next year and a rising cap picture. But yet many here hate the current/new GM. Not sure what to even say to that.

Many? How about two.

[Goodesuns]

You are probably right bone but the constant hate on McD by those two might just seem like more then two. I think he is a great GM. He is a stud PF away from a real good team. I hope we keep the three guard rotation and run the opposing teams off the court. Every one says we are way too pg heavy. I think with bleds goran and IT along with green we literally have 4 guys who can score 30+ on any given night. That makes us a dangerous team period.

[Cap]

Every one says we are way too pg heavy.

The problem is not that our PGs are too numerous or too good. The problem is that our big man rotation is Plumlee-Morris-Tolliver-Len-Randolph. Unless Len has a breakout season, that's one of the least impressive power rotations in the league.

Fixed it for you, Goodesuns. It's ok to use posters' usernames.

Largest contracts signed in the last year -

Carmelo Anthony, NYK - 5 years, $124 million ($24,800,000)
Chris Bosh, MIA - 5 years, $118.7 million ($23,740,000)
Kyrie Irving, CLE - 5 years, $90 million ($18,000,000)
Paul George, IND - 5 years, $80 million ($16,000,000)
Eric Bledsoe, PHO - 5 years, $70 million ($14,000,000)
Gordon Hayward, UTH - 4 years, $63 million ($15,750,000)
DeMarcus Cousins, SAC - 4 years, $62 million ($15,500,000)
Marcin Gortat, WAS - 5 years, $60 million ($12,000,000)
Derrick Favors, UTH - 4 years, $49 million ($12,250,000)
Kobe Bryant, LAL - 2 years, $48.5 million ($24,750,000)
Kyle Lowry, TOR - 4 years, $48 million ($12,000,000)
Chandler Parsons, DAL - 3 years, $46.2 million ($15,400,000)
LeBron James, CLE - 2 years, $42 million ($21,000,000)

I would list them in $ per year order myself. It would put Bledsoe 4th from the bottom of the list. Its actually a reasonable contract looking at that list. I think Bledsoe will be as effective as Kyrie.

[TOO]

How much is that really saying? Thomas is as effective as Irving for half the price.

I think this season's success depends on two people, Plumlee and Len. We have 2 really good defenders on the wings now. We really need rim protection in the worst way. That would enable those guys to gamble just a little bit more on the wings. I wouldn't be adverse to moving assets for a guy like Sanders, but I want to see a bit more of Len first. It's a shame he got injured during Summer League.
