He was not forced into a bad situation by Dallas and we haven't treated him poorly by any report coming out. He and his agent had the opp to negotiate the best deal possible. There is no burning of a bridge when the market didn't value him like he and his agent thought.
And I don't think there is precedent for it but that's not because players get disgruntled and leave it's because in the past u either were a max player or u weren't. And those that weren't got the best offers possible and brought them to their team to match. NN was not offered a max, or a near max it would seem... and his agent and he thought he would be. And he has not presented the best offer from another team for us to match because they thought waiting on the bigger dominoes to fall would open the market up for them. That is what it looks like anyway, and yet for some reason we are supposed to just set a new precedent apparently and just start paying our RFA's whatever they want regardless of what the market says otherwise a bridge is burned.
