I hope this is followed by a CJ trade, otherwise this is a ridiculous roster.

Amazed that he signed for under $20 million per year. I am perfectly fine if he wanted a longer deal and gave up a few million per year for that.

I remember some on here telling me getting him for under $20 million was a pipe dream just a few months ago.

We couldn't lose him for nothing, we would have 0 cap space to use to go find another player. At least this team isn't counting pennies and are willing to spend to keep Dame happy.

That's a bag of cash and a lot of security. No matter what...reload or retool he's a big part of our future.

Fair, but it's still a poorly constructed roster have your 1-3 all be guys who are 6'3". The team just needs more length.

I like this deal. Opens up CJ trades and it's under 20 million a year.

Interesting he chose Portland but he must have been assured he will be the starting SG after CJ
gets dealt. I wonder if the Knicks offered him the $80/4 deal that Fournier got?

Yeah, I would be too for that money lol. Can't say I agree with the "run it back" tho.

Interesting. I like it, should be a contract we can trade with ease if it blows up. And considering gtj got 2 + po this looks better for portland now that we got the deal done

He is under contract until age 33 roughly, yeah this contract is moveable he is basically under contract at a reasonable rate for his entire prime. If the cap goes up big time in the next 2 or 3 years the contract looks even better.

How can you like it? Either we are running a 6'3" 1-3 or we are paying a 6th man 18mil per. Either way it's bad new bears.

And who do you suppose is going to want CJ's 30+million/year? Where's the market for him? Philly for Simmons... not happening, Harris maybe? Other than that, I just don't see a market for him now. I think it vanished over the last several hours. We are now paying a ridiculous amount of money to 3 undersized SGs.

I'm done. Man Overboard.

Harris and Porzingas I think are realistic targets. Simmons should be realistic, but Morey is on some crack cocaine bender this summer.
