That would be between what Conley and Lowry make. Above Brogdon and Rozier. This is the going rate.

As stated, $25mm is fine and should be the walk away number. If he wants to limit it to 4 years and be able to hit the market after, fine too. But the more you add to that, the less intriguing it gets, especially when we already have the 4th highest cap hit for the position locked up (likely 3rd after next year when Russ falls off).

And it looks like he will get traded.

For those that keep saying "why not just pay the extra 5 million" as explained before, it's not just 5 million. This is why. If you want to say "Cuban is a billionaire he should pay it" so be it, but no MLE.

Re-signing Brunson at a deal that pays him $30 million annually, per Bobby Mark?s calculations, could cost the team $130 million in salary and subsequent taxes next season. That?s without the team using its taxpayer?s mid-level exception, a $6.4-million carveout that the team might need to sign another wing or split among several players asking more than the veteran?s minimum. It?s another calculation the team must make, a financial one dependent on how much Cuban is truly willing to spend. Dallas can?t be blamed for its valuation of Brunson being lower than New York?s. Team sources have certainly expressed surprise and dismay at just how much the Knicks are prepared to offer him. But sometimes, that?s the cost of free agency. ? via Tim Cato @ The Athletic

I wish just once these owners would tell these players tough shit. We don?t care that you want to be traded. If they do decide to trade them IDGAF where you want to go. We are shipping your ass to the highest bidder. You want to choose where you play every season? Sign 1 year deals and not 4 year max contracts.

Holy hell, no. Give Brunson whatever he wants! Oh god...

I?d think Miami can put together a better package for KD than PHX? I don?t know what either teams draft pick situation looks like, but I think Herro is a better player than anyone PHX can offer up unless Ayton can do some kind of SnT.

As much as I hate Miami I?d much rather KD go there because fuck CP3 and Booker.

Please, no. Also, with what assets?

Maybe the NBA should go to a new format where each team picks a captain. Each captain gets to pick the best remaining player to join his team. Sort of like the new All-Star game process. The order of picking your teammates is determined by the draft order. First round picks get $40M, second round $35M, and so on. Captains can barter with other team captains and generally have fun with the process while the rest of us wait to see who is on "our team". Owners, coaches, and fans are stuck with whatever the players come up with. Rinse and repeat every year. Sound like fun?

The NBA is getting ridiculous.

Nope, none of those features work for me anymore. And the ? mark replaces ' and " from copy pasta for me. I'm on computer when I post so I don't know about from the phone.

Nobody wants him. I doubt you need to give up much. If they want THJ and Dwight Powell, fine, but NO WAY to Dinwiddie. No sir. No.

It's funny how we though the Brooklyn FO held firm and did the right thing...welp.
