Derozan signs 5 years 139mil with the Raptors

By far... Swap George hill for a younger more talented Teague, keep the core group of pg13, monta Ellis and Myles turner, grab Thad young for a 20th pick which was a steal... Thad extremely underrated great defender to then grab al Jeff for offence and use Myles turner for defense they have size and can go small now with the players they have could easily be top 2 team in east this year

The only thing I question is why get Al Jefferson if they are trying to run more. I love the Teague and Thad additions, but not sure how Jefferson will fit in. I love Al Jefferson as a player, but I just question the fit. Pacers could be the Cavs toughest opponent in the East next year.

why was jefferson only 3/30? I get if he wants a title, but indy aint quite at that level.

Wow pacers... Just picked up al Jefferson now to jeeze
jeff Teague, monta ellia, pg13, Myles turner or Thad young then al Jeff center
thats a scary starting 5 if healthy

kidcuddles will be pretty happy,hes a big Pacer fan.

Owners have to pay the bills, one bad season and attendance is down they could lose money, players are on a fixed guaranteed salary..

I'd rather see the owners get the money... They actually might do something good with all the money they make.. Players just blow their millions on fancy cars and hookers anyways..

Where are they now?

I'm confused about this new cap... entering this season...

What is considered MAX deal for a player now? Wasn't it 25 million per year before? What is it now?

[thetrinity]

I think it's 164.5 million for 5 years the max now. Every player is different depending on service, but I think that's what Durant can get.

I know the cap went from 70 to 94 million this off season.

Derozan got his max and it was 139.5

Derozan took 91% of his max

Derozan took 91% of his max

Derozan not worth 91% of his maximum contract!

I know right, I mean the slogan never fit Donald.

Al Jefferson went to work against lebrons teams in the playoffs , last time they matched up cavs/hornets I remember big al doing nice before getting injured .. For the contract it could be a steal since I'm assuming he'll share minutes with Myles turner so he will get some rest down the stretch and be fresh for a playoff run , impressed with the pacers offseason for sure hoping the raptors can scoop up either Ariza, Meyers Leonard or some sort of shooting 3/4 I'd even consider taking nerlens Noel off the 76ers for the right price

Damn... Around 32 million for an NBA player. Blows my mind.

[lonegambler23]

Lol. I feel sorry for the raptors

What's wrong with hookers??

[KRIT]

Conley just got 5-years worth $153 million. That makes Derozan's contract look a lot better. Everyone is getting overpaid.

[upscope]

I just got 10m per

Never mind this year....The REAL Max is coming in the 2017-18 Season....Lebron will max out at 40 mill a year..Curry will do the same the following Season...
