Reported 2 years. $10 mil. DAMN. Well guess with the way the market is, nothing surprises me anymore.

Ariza is to Pierce and Booker is to............?

We already "have" Gooden and Harrington. I wonder what PJ Brown is up to?

really upsets me...I don't think he's done quite enough to earn 5 a year, but Book has done everything we've asked him for and I remember his swag and toughness being a crucial part of the Chicago series.

pretty upset but I understand

It's all part of the KD2DC plan...

We needed to free up #35
Booker has 35 tattooed on him so you know he wasn’t abouta give it up.

Ha ha

Jazz fan here...don't know much about Booker. Any of you guys willing to give me a quick breakdown of his pluses and minuses? Thanks

Holy crap...5 mil a year?

This offseason has been a gold mine for free agents. The only guy who's gotten a fair contract based on production is Ariza. Almost everyone else has been severely overpaid.

Athletic, undersized 4, gets bullied a lot in the paint, developed a decent midrange jumper, very active on the glass, quick twitch muscles

Will miss Book, he brought it every night. $5M is a bit steep though.

$5 million a year for Booker. Wow.

Dat2U · Post #19 » by **Dat2U** » Tue Jul 15, 2014 5:51 pm

$5 mil per for Booker? Man, we dodged another bullet. Good job Ernie (cough, hack, cough)!

Sorry had trouble getting that last statement out, lol!

Dare I say it???

Ernie fully expecting Khem Birch will make this roster and provide some of Booker’s value moving forward? Obviously, if we get Blair then he will gobble up most of those minutes. But it would be nice to see the Wiz develop within someone like Birch.
