    Deng, whom a lot of Chicago fans and RealGM refer to as 'Dung', is extremely overpaid.

    Good luck trading that contract.

    Who cares? The city of Toronto has great "culture". They'll survive with a sucky basketball team.

    Deng's deal was reasonable at the time, but the salary cap has gone down and Deng didn't meet his potential.

    In three years it is very possible that someone might post "Aldridge 5years/$70m! WTF?!?"

    The salary cap is probably going to go down quite a bit and not many players will be getting what Aldridge will be.

    I stayed at Bellows several times in the early 1960s. I might have stayed in the very cottage you're in. Is there still a tiny island off the coast shaped like a dog's head? Or has it floated away by now?

    Yes, all the enthusiasm I see now for the big Aldridge contract, I saw for the big Miles contract, the big Zach contract, etc. I never agreed with all these posters who said, hurry up and sign him, Pritchard.
