Told y'all, that 80 mil number thrown around yesterday was not realistic. The Nurk number will be 70+ too. I'm fine with this. This was market rate considering his RFA status.
Craig -- could you explain -- are you unhappy cause he signed for SO much or just like watching athletes get payed so much --- what ??
Too much. We are right back to where we were with Dame/CJ. Expensive, short, non-defensive guards making the most amount of money on the team. And he won't be playing in the role where he had a hot stretch. When will they learn. Cronin pulls that straight out of the Olshey playbook.
A starting salary of ~22 mil puts him around 55-60th in the league. He'll perform to that level next season
but we weren't bidding against ourselves. you don't think Detroit, OKC, or San Antonio would have offered this?
