First off, not sure how you think you can put a dollar and year estimate on Rudy's next contract (let alone close the book on his NBA resume) when he's still a year away from free agency and hasn't played a game with the Mavs yet. His play next season will determine his value. Second, 3 years at 14 million (your number) is 4.67 million per year, which is ~ $500,000 a year more than the reported European offer. Setting aside the head-scratching fact that you're talking down the guy's earning potential in the states while at the same time talking it up, you've basically made UD's point for him. The Spanish offer is hardly so good that he can't afford to pass it up.
