I like this. In an age where stars often shuffle between teams, I am happy to have Dame here guiding our team and our culture.
dame is a one in a million kinda guy, all star grade player with humility and wisdom. he could be an elected official someday. dame in the whitehouse???
i remember in the rugby league down here, i think they had a one per team contract called a franchise player that they could basically pay them whatever and it didnt count against their cap. might not have been league, but sounds like a pretty good idea right about now....
The way I expect the cap to go up, by the end of the contract we're probably going to feel we got a bargain.
One other thing I have to give Dame credit for beyond his on-court performance and his participation in our community.... I thought we’d lose Hood, Kanter, and Curry. Figured we’d lose Aminu or overpay to keep though I don’t think we needed to keep him.... I have no doubt Hood stayed in large part due to the team and culture that Dame has guided onto our team.
