    will do what? Memphis and him have a reported verbal agreement. The price of every free agent just went up.

    I didn't know it was Memphis at first.. I thought you meant in the OP that he was commanding that much.

    Ho - Lee - Fuck

    If Rudy Gay is a MAX player, just start the lockout now. Owners group will insist on more limited years and a hard cap to keep teams from doing this.

    And we though 65/5 for Aldridge was bad.

    LOL @ Memphis.

    Wasn't he a RFA? What the heck is Memphis thinking.

    Reminds me of us resigning Darius Miles.

    Nothing this team has ever done has shown evidence of thought.

    Why start now?

    This contract is part of why the league doesn't need a new CBA, it needs to rid itself of moronic owners who overpay mediocre talents.

    At least we can all rest assured that the Grizzlies won't be contending for a title anytime within the next 5 years.

    strange that they wouldn't wait at least a couple weeks to see what offers he gets
