5 years $205M in 2017

Half serious - why would Lebron do more than a 1 yr deal going into a new CBA?

 

[sea manup]

gm lebron forcing dan gilbert to overpay the entire roster before he signs with miami 

 

[casper90403]

wilson chandler? Are the clips trying to get him? MLE? I'd have to think he's worth way more than that

Gerald Green has to look at all this money and think to himself, damn, why couldn't i take b-ball seriously and work on my game?

Bobby Marks @BobbyMarks42 1m
Remember CLE can go over the cap/tax with all these guys. Full Bird Rights: Love, Tristan and Shump. Will have the Tax ML (3.4) and Minim

Matthew R Tynan @Matthew_Tynan 1m
The Cavs aren’t just hitting the tax line, they’re jumping in a spaceship and using Dan Gilbert’s money as fuel to launch into orbit.

Tim Bontemps @TimBontemps 1m
Including LeBron James eventually re-signing, have the Cavaliers right at about $100 million committed to nine players.

Adi Joseph @AdiJoseph now
Afflalo was a pretty good defender three or four years ago. Being on bad teams dulled that, and I'm not sure it can be flipped back on.

It's an arms race out here.

LMA needs to land somewhere.... like now

they can go over the tax because of birds rights but because they are still over the tax doesnt that stop them from getting any free agents? 

 

[moneylicious]

The world would explode if Lebron decided to bounce right now lulz.

 

[thapointguy]

Hypothetically speaking...say the Clippers and Thunder meet in the playoffs.

Who guards Kevin Durant?

Lil B

supposedly he's not making a decision until he finishes his meetings tomorrow night

Steph Curry is owed $24.5 million over the next two years. Iman Shumpert will make just over $20 million. DeMarre Carroll will make $30 mil.

Interesting..Gilbert on his George Steinbrenner

 

[captainsneakerhead23]

Paul Pierce 3rd year is a team option. At 3.4m per, that's a steal for the Clippers.

 

[Arthur Shelby]

Why some Knicks fans this interested in SHUMP Contract ?

 

[pjdabullsfan]

50 a year lol

Or he gonna quit

Gerald Green is probably going to get a nice deal this summer. Shooters always get taken care of

True.. but even Steinbrenner wouldn't have paid Shump

Dan Gilbert just pouring bags of money on the table and letting anyone take what they want.

"Take my wallet, and give me back how much you think I should have, keep the rest."

not really interested, just surprised he got $40M..

i've watched him struggle & show no improvement for 4 years now. don't see that changing either.

Stephenson?

Nothing would ever be more funny. Ever

 

[sea manup]

if shump is worth 10 mil a year then there has to be a team out there that's willing to trade for nick young 

 

[nick.]

@daldridgetnt: Dan Gilbert thought the new CBA in 2011 would devastate smaller revenue teams (which Cavs were at time). Today: $230M in new contracts.

[flyerthandelta]

Crazy these guys signing long term deals with the new salary cap rise starting next season instead of doing shorter deals to get the extra cheese next yr I'm I missing something?!?!
