This is a done deal now and big props to RealGM's man Shams for breaking it.

Max is what Leonard signed: 5yrs/$90M. Tobias did 4yrs/$64M.

Yuck, would've preferred 5/70 to that. Oh well, time to put this behind us and win some games.

Just so you can rest at ease. You are totally wrong.

Underrated no more. Lots of positives to Tobias, hopefully trade value is one of them.

So two small forwards picked top 5 now you sign another for 16 mil a year. Talk about being crammed at one position. This team is floundering under this gm.

Umm..two can play the four as well, the other can play the two..chill. Don't understand why you can't enjoy moments like these with the rest of us. Believe me when I tell you it's a good feeling.

Harris probably received the same figure from another team and communicated that to Hennigan... then both sides decided to simply cut out all the unnecessary pageantry involved with offer sheets/matching. Looks better for both sides.

Hezonja-2/3
Gordon-3/4
Harris-3/4

Harris and Gordon could very well be our opening day starting forwards. With the athletes in today's game, specific positions don't matter as much. You still need balance and size, but we're not crammed at one position. Versatility is a good thing. Plus, AG and Hezonja are still under contracts for years so we've got time to figure out who we need to build around.

If we gave Harris 5yrs, we wouldn't be able to use that on any other of our rookies. Use the 5th year on whoever turns into that superstar for us.

Can't get excited about bringing back the same team except for a new rookie that won 25 games last year. I see no improvement. You and others have the luxury of feeling good about these minor moves in the offseason now but wait until January. We did nothing to improve but pay people more.

Well technically he never did get an offer sheet.

By the power (previously) vested in me by RealGM Administrator Howard Mass, I declare eyriq the winner.

Does this mean we can finally lock up the "Situation" thread?

I learned recently that only applies to rookie extensions after 3 years.
