Six years ago. It's what he's actually done on the court in those six years that has people scratching their heads. I mean Dion went 4th if that's the only criteria.

Let me rephrase it the way I meant it:

Well $8 million per was my cut off. I think it will depend on whether it's all guaranteed. Milwaukee was the one team in the league where Delly had a shot a replicating some of his LBJ success because of Giannis. This is a very difficult decision.

I've said all year we should sign him for 40/4. If that's the actual price now with all these crazy contracts I'd be very happy

And when Klutch demands 60/4 for JR? Because that's where this is headed if we match. At least play out the string. He can't sign anything until the 7th. The Cavs have three days. If they do decide to match, I'd jam the Bucks for making the offer. Alternatively, tell his agent that you'll offer $32 million over four years and see if Delly would prefer to stay in Cleveland.

Pretty solid pickup for them pending what the terms are.

Pay them both... Dellys worth 40 mil. It's the going price for players and we need depth. The cap is going up again the price for quality depth isn't gonna get any better.

Time to see how deep Gilbert's pockets are post title. No reason he should let either walk. Unless of course their prices get too insane but the number you're putting out compared to what's been thrown out around the league are fine.

Still patiently waiting (excitedly) for Eric Gordon, Dwight Howard, Rondo, and JR Smith's deals.

I'm a bit surprised at the complete lack of buzz about Ryan Anderson. I would have thought we'd hear more, especially when Teletovic (the second best stretch-4 out there) went off the market.

You trust JR more than I do. I'm not ready to hand him a 4 year guaranteed deal. No one else in the NBA is either.

He agreed to wait on Dallas running out the ball on Whiteside/Conley. He will get a max from Dallas.
