Triston Thompson 5yr/82 mil

[TwoWays]

So who caved here? I know guy was holding out for 5/92 mil but damn he made out like a bandit. Come off the bench. Make boatloads of money. All thanks to lebron

Wow is all I have to say.. Yes he came off the bench and played okay but 82 million dollars?? That's a horrible sign imo.

Jeffie he will be great as long as bron sticks around. But ain't no bron staying in Cleveland for 5 more years. And triston knew he ain't getting those dollars anywhere other than cleveland

Good to see another longhorn get paid

I don't think either side 'caved'. Players don't lose money until the nba season starts so TT had nothing to lose financially by holding out through the exhibition season. He wanted more but probably didn't get it. If I were d.griffin I would have pulled the offer, for fun.

Good move

He is worth it

[hotelis]

i dont get it. what the difference between 82 and 92 mil. cant spend that kind of money anyway. ( unless youre Iverson ).

You'd be surprised ^^^ I laugh when people say shit like this after taxes!agents! family you name it and their standard of living usually reflects their income it isn't as much as you think.

10 million.

But really, it is a big difference when you live a more extravagant lifestyle, own more houses, cars, support more people, have more baby's mommas, etc.

I can never blame someone for wanting more money regardless of what they make.

I don't buy this.. it's all bs. show me the actual contract.... it's like us reg. people, I can tell you I make $20/hr but my actual rate is $12/hr. or vise versa. NBA is a multi billion company they can't tell there employees how much there salary. it's confidential.. those numbers that we hear or see in the news are all propaganda. sorry about my writing I hope somebody understand my point.

[cankid]

quite the deal

[TwoWays]

The power of lebron is real. Look at jr smith. Guy opted out thinking some team would offer him a contract and nada. Without lebron, Jr. would be back playing in China. Guys on the team owe him so much

[IBetYou]

Don't be ridiculous, JR.Smith may be a knucklehead but he's one of the more talented off-guards in the league.

Short answer. 10 million.

Have we heard this guys name yet. Dude making bank and sitting on bench

Halfway through the 3rd and no points.

[jjgold]

He did not play in pre season

Do your homework

[lakerboy]

Have we heard this guys name yet. Dude making bank and sitting on bench

Another example of a team allowing a failed player to be a gm.

[jjgold]

He played ok in 4th qtr

[NardVa]

Dude had 2 points...WTF...17 million a year and you score 2 points...

[jjgold]

He is not a scorer

[eidolon]

The guy is slow. He can rebound, I'll give him that. But that is it. He is a poor D rated replica of Dennis Rodman.

I know right! I mean if you're not a scorer can u at least not win the starting job. Wow!! And when on court, at least dominate somewhat defensivley
