With so many of you saying Ibaka is actually worth the max, then it seems like the Thunder is the only team with 3 max-WORTHY players on the same team. Is there any other such team now that the Heat is broken up? I suppose Cleveland with Kevin Love would qualify, but that hasn't happened yet.

The San Antonio Spurs will find a way to find players that's cheaper and be just as effective as these max contract players. I envy their organization big time.

If Jordan Hill can make 9 million per. I think Serge could potentially make 20.

Ibaka has less than 6 years in the NBA, meaning his max would be 25% of the salary cap.

The new salary cap is set at 63.065m, meaning Ibaka's first year max would start out at 15,776,250.

Some of you saying that teams would offer him 18m are wrong, because well, they can't. :lol:

Definitely. And in today's market his contract looks very good a great "third best" on your team.
