Watch on YouTube

I can't even comprehend how this board found so much to discuss over this whole ordeal.

More or less than 25 million?

Answered

Paint me not shocked.

Very pleased

Strong likelihood of being a value deal IMO

Can it be considered a good deal if it's already an untradable contract? I can't think of one team who would go after that deal.

A+ negotiating by the Bulls. I don't think they could have done any better for a guy as talented as Giddy at his age. Giddy is going to be dissatisfied somewhat, but he'll get his on the next one.

Shocked. Shocked I say!

Our collective hundreds-of-pages panic attack was totally justified!

Ok, time to pour all our time and effort into the Ayo extension thread.

Finally! This was the number that was fair to both sides, IMO. I think we could've gotten here two months quicker. Glad it didn't get to the QO.

Snark aside, this seems like a good deal for all involved and I'm happy it worked out.

Has there been any definitive reporting one way or the other on whether there is an option year in the last year?

I'm going all in the Huerter extension. Good luck.

Gonna be a shame when they announce the Vuc extension

At least you can finally relax after writing pages of Giddey contract posts lol.

Not really the point, but how do we think this will impact a Coby/Ayo deal next year?

No options, fully guaranteed.
