We're just gonna have to disagree on that one. 3 years is really not that long (relatively speaking), and you know as well as I do that the Mavs have had PLENTY of much worse contracts in the Marc Cuban era. Brendan Haywood. Now that's a bad contract. Iggy? Middle of the road. Is he overpaid? Sure. Is he really much more overpaid than say, Jason Terry? Or Butler himself for that matter? Or 90% of all NBA players?

Yes the Mavs can re-sign Butler and Chandler if they so choose (assuming Bird rights don't change with the new CBA, which seems like a long shot).

Good to know. It's still a bad idea and I hope it doesn't happen.
