Gasol, Chicago working to complete an agreement

Md said something about 120 mil vs 129 mil retard :stfu

Yes. But he missed the part about the fact that no other team would be able to pay 129 Million anyways, and NO one was offering him a larger contract.

So he signs with New York and forces a huge contract the Knicks moronically sign, then comes back basically a 2 million a year discount on a contract only the Knicks would even think about paying him. See Lebron may be a douche, but at least he does care about something besides himself. Doesn't seem like Carmelo does. He certainly doesn't care about winning, cause he would have bolted to the Rockets or Bulls to win.

I didn't miss it, I could just care less as it wasn't the primary argument btw you and MD.

And Leoptout is a self obsessed, selfish joke. Gtfo with that garbage.

Le opt signed a two year deal specifically so he could get a bigger contract or leave cleveland

And gato thinks melo is greedy...

:biglol & :yes

4 time mvps deserve max money, melo also deserves a max deal. Cant hate on either for taking care of themselves

I think I heard HuskerGays say McDermott deserves a max deal because he scored 31 points in a summer league game the other day :crazy

The hypocrisy of gatobatit is that he doesnt feel like lebron is greedy

[ericberry14]

Lebron signing for 2 years saves cleveland money and allows him to resign after the cap goes up.

LeBron can't leave cleveland. If he left in 2 years everyone would hate him forever and that matters to him.

he will only leave cleveland if things start going south, which he has proven before that he doesnt have the patience to deal with things going south

and it doesnt save them money if he turns around and signs for the max again when the cap goes up because the new max will be higher

either way he deserves the max as does melo, only gatobatit is a hypocrite for calling one greedy and not the other

it saves the money for RIGHT NOW.

and then later it allows him to resign for the max THEN go after free agents because they aren't going to hit the hard cap before resigning james to the new max deal. Just makes it easier for those 2 years to really know what their figure is... not that they couldn't figure it out with a little 6th grade math :dog

but anyway... melo taking 120 vs 129 isn't anything lebron not signing a HUGE deal isn't anything.

Until a player like lebron takes 10/yr to win a championship im fucking :yawn

no it doesnt, hes signed for the max amount for two years

so if its a 2 year 42 million or 4 year 84 million what is the difference?

I was under the impression that when player signed for more years there was more money on the table. Like when the players can sign for more money to stay with a team. It all seems pretty confusing to me.

[ericberry14]

Why guarantee only $42.1 million, when a full maximum contract is $88 million over four years for a player switching teams.


yeah there was more money on the table. you're welcome :finger

we are talking pennies bro, its not even worth arguing over :lol:

maybe not pennies to me and you, but to multi millionaires we are talking a very marginal difference

its 4 mil over 4 years vs 9 mil over 6 right?

thats the point... both are saving their teams nothing. when they play for half price to win i will be impressed.

the only way i could see melos 9 mil over 5 years (not 6) saving them money is if it is all focused on the 2010 season

like he got paid like this 120 mil over 5 years
26 16 26 26 26 which would make the 9 million significant because it would free up extra cap room for the 2010 season, which is when they will attempt to add marc gasol or some other big free agent

[ericberry14]

I dont think you meant 2010... but holy shit he is making 120 mil over 5 years????? WOW

now i really dont give a fuck about that 9 mil. He's already making an extra fucking 20!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yea i meant 2015

[08GatorBait]

Jesus you people dont follow this much do you.

Lebrons contract is set up to help Cleveland with Cap space in two years. Christ follow what is happening more.


Try to understand what is going on before assuming things. Carmelo took 2 mill less a year to get a five year deal no one else would be near that. He set the Knicks back for five years now. Lebrons contract is all about cap space and nothing more. But please. Continue to not know the story fullyplease

no it wasnt you moron

he wants MAX MONEY in two years, and when the cap goes up, so does the max contract

leGreed just wants a bigger pay day, and he will get it when the new CBA raises the salary cap

[ScotchFrost97]

Yes Md is right.

[ericberry14]

Max contract goes up every year.

so anyone who signs a max contract now is saving money for their team?

120 over 5 is much bigger salary cap hit than 40 for 2... thats easy math
