Well, we now probably know Danny's price, and I"m thinking the odds of us getting him to sign an extension just dropped significantly.
I have no idea what you're talking about, and clearly, neither do you.

Andrew Bogut just got 5 years and $72 million.

I think this bodes well for us as Bogut is in a generally more expensive position, and was the #1 pick in his draft.

I'm thinking Granger will get closer to 5 years and $55-65 million.

The Pacers cannot afford to not re-sign Granger. He's easily the fanbase's favorite player, and we can't keep playing "musical players". I can't believe the Bucks gave Bogut that ridiculous contract.

I dont know if Granger is easily the most popular player...it seems that people have a pretty ridiculous hard-on for Jeff Foster too. Regardless, I agree, we need to keep moving in the right direction this summer and sign Granger to an extension.

That Bogut contract is blasphemy. Are the Bucks trying to challenge the Grizzlies for the most inept franchise in the NBA? Seriously, they are going to regret that deal starting tomorrow.

The Bogut deal is going to mess up contract talks all over the league. Bogut is a nice player, but not worth nearly the money he got.

Yeah, he really is. I just saw Bucher on ESPN talking about that. If Bogut can get that kind of money, then you know the price on Okafor and Biedrins just hiked up about 30%.
