Durant and LeBron can/will top this I think, but damn, even with inflation, what a crazy FA period.

I love Conley's play and Parsons is fine too but at those numbers, I don't know. I suppose you gotta respect that Memphis is going all in.

With how today is going we'll have a new "record breaking" deal every 20 minutes.


No, you don't understand how max salaries work. This is literally the largest possible contract that can be given out this year, because (a) Conley is in the 7-9 year experience range (b) He is re-signing with his incumbent team, who are the only ones who can give him 7.5% annual raises (other teams can only offer 4.5%) (c) This starts at his full max annual salary.

Durant's maximum possible contract is exactly this amount (and only if he re-signs with OKC). Only Dwight could get more this year (10+ years experience), but he will not (HOU not interested in re-signing him).

So yes, this WILL actually be the biggest contract in NBA history for at least the next year.

Going all in would imply there making moves to contend.. There basically gonna continue to be a mid tier playoff team with no shot to contend.

But it seems a lot of teams in the nba are content with that

Do raptor fans have to try and make every thread about the raptors somehow?
