Reported 2 years. $10 mil. DAMN. Well guess with the way the market is, nothing surprises me anymore.

Ariza is to Pierce and Booker is to............?

We already "have" Gooden and Harrington. I wonder what PJ Brown is up to?

really upsets me...I don't think he's done quite enough to earn 5 a year, but Book has done everything we've asked him for and I remember his swag and toughness being a crucial part of the Chicago series.

pretty upset but I understand

It's all part of the KD2DC plan...

We needed to free up #35

Holy crap...5 mil a year?

This offseason has been a gold mine for free agents. The only guy who's gotten a fair contract based on production is Ariza. Almost everyone else has been severely overpaid.

Will miss Book, he brought it every night. $5M is a bit steep though.

$5 mil per for Booker? Man, we dodged another bullet. Good job Ernie (cough, hack, cough)!

Sorry had trouble getting that last statement out, lol!

Dare I say it???

Ernie fully expecting Khem Birch will make this roster and provide some of Booker’s value moving forward? Obviously, if we get Blair then he will gobble up most of those minutes. But it would be nice to see the Wiz develop within someone like Birch.
