Championship heart, defensive disruptor but still learning to run the offence at peak efficiency, there’s no way you let him walk getting cute and penny pinching over a couple million here and there - those are management moves saved for cheap teams like the Wolves, Bulls and Kings.
LOL let FVV walk for nothing and give the reins to Davis - that’s like letting Lowry walk in 2014 and then handing the keys to the offence to Greivis Vasquez.
TD isn't even a point guard. I'm really confused why people would even bring him up in this conversation. TD's role competition is with Norm. Completely different skill-sets.
Anyways, FVV is elite in the areas that Nurse cares about the most out of that position - he's very disruptive defensively and is very strong executing schemes on both ends of the court. His intelligence on the court is what forces Nurse to keep him on for ~40 mins while people are blindly focused on how well he's shooting on any given night.
It's a no-brainer to re-sign him at that money, which is why it's guaranteed to happen quickly if not with the Raps.
