With Green's signing, Steph Curry is now the 6th highest paid player on the Warriors.

Good point.

TT is getting a fair contract at 5 years $80M. Not sure what the problem is.

Did you ever find a link for Windhorst dropping DeRozan's name? Mentioned it to a Raps fan and they thought it was the dumbest thing in the world.
I believe I saw amico mention derozan today.

TT hold up may be what the last year is, player or team option, or trade clauses. Probably not as much money as other things.

Only thing on Twitter about shumpert is his ridiculous new hairstyle. See nothing about him not signing that $40M deal. Link?

I am hearing a lot about Thompson leaving the Cavs (nothing official just reports saying that it is definitely possible at this point). That's fucking crazy if true. Thought they struck a deal yesterday, what the hell happened?

I saw last night that it wasn't agreed on, after pretty much everyone said it was.

Maybe Dan Gilbert doesn't want that $100M tax fee?

Btw that is sarcasm, I'm sure DG doesn't give a flying fuck about the tax bill that will come.

The rumors said Draymond was waiting for TT to reach a deal to base his new deal on. Maybe TT then decided he wants more?

He's RESTRICTED. He's going no where. I'm more sure of him being a Cav than LBJ

Just what I'm reading ginger.

Lebron is retiring a Cav, get over yourself.

I'm not worried about Lebron, but what's he waiting for?

That's what I figured. Just needs Gasol and Aldridge to sign then people can start wondering about him.

Lebron will be the last to sign like expected. He holds up his end of he deal when cleveland holds up the end of theirs.

No one can officially sign until July 8th...

Teams have a ballpark figure of what the cap will be but during the first week of July, it's being figured out. LeBron is probably waiting until then to even negotiate. Why rush it when you can't do anything officially?

Sounds like it's time for TT to test the market and see how much he's actually worth.

Agreed with this. Whether or not LeBron and Rich Paul want this, it needs to happen.

$15M is about what he's worth. He's getting $16 so I'm not sure why he's bitching.
