What does that mean? We have to take on more salary than his current ~3 mil. to make a deal happen?
I beleive you take an average salary from his contract. So even though his extension kicks in next summer you would do $38M contract + $3M this year / 5 years
Again, this is a guess. I don't want the RealGM gang to beat me up!
Edit: Isn't DeRozan a BYC player not a poison pill player?
Again, I am not too sure.
Poison Pill means he has to be traded for a player of equal value to his new contract.
So if a player is on the last year of his $4 mill/year contract and has already signed an extension at $8 mill/year, he is considered to be worth $8 million even if you trade him during his $4 million season.
