@ZackMFFL: No disrespect to anyone who thinks this, but why would Al Horford turn down $30M in guaranteed money if he felt he needed to leverage another deal? You don't turn down that much money unless something else is already in the bag or really close.
@TylerAtoms: Al Horford has the same agent as Jrue Holiday. He once used the Mavs as leverage to get Jrue the max in New Orleans. I fear he is doing the same with the Mavs, again.

There's got to be a market for him, I mean if he gets a minimum 2-50 that's a win. Who knows what he'll get in summer of 2020. In addition, he sat in that lockerroom with Boston the entire year, given what Kyrie said about the kids, it was not good. I don't think he'll be a Chris Paul and go with a money grab, he'll find the best situation and if it's 25 per over multiple seasons....it's a solid business decision.
