eric bledsoe only has 1 more year after this, so :yeshrug:

that verajao contract is ridiculous given his age (32) and injury history. he's not even elite at any one skill.

klay thompson is looking like a very sound investment

faried's contract is good as well. can't complain there

rubio....:mjlol: no way I'm throwing that kinda money at a cat who shoots 37% from the field.

alec burks....not really sold on that dude.

nikola vucevic good value for what he's giving you. plus he's still young. solid deal for the magic.

Lemongrass, cherries, alkaline water
Rubio and Varejao are easily the worst. Have probably watched the Jazz play 4 times the last two years so cant offer an opinion on Burks. Don't really have a problem with Thompson's contract but none of these other guys are 50 mil+ players

only thing good about rubio is he is young. verejao is old and ALWAYS injured too. he is not in demand at all.

Hard to judge unless we know what the cap is going to

Bledsoe is OK if his knee holds up

Klays contract is alright if he bumps his scoring up to the low 20's

Vucevic's contract is GREAT a future 20& 10 big is great at that price

Varajos is ridiculous when he miss half the season every year

Especially when a big is their biggest need. Third year is a team option. But still

Faried shows some strides on offense last year, not enough to warrant that contract.

Burks got some potential to be a 18-20 ppg scorer. So maybe

Rubio great passer good on D...one of the brokest jumpers ever. I hate guards who can't shoot so naw

Uncertain grounds
Eric Bledsoe - 5 years 70 million
Kenneth Faried - 4 years 50 million
Nikola Vucevic - 4 years 54 million
Alec Burks - 4 years 42 million
Klay Thompson - 4 years 70 million
Ricky Rubio - 4 years 55 million
Anderson Varajeo - 3 years 30 million

1. faried
2. vucevic
3. bledsoe
4. thompson
5. rubio
6. burks
7. varejao

varejao isnt a bad deal per se but idk if he holds up and i think they couldve gotten him for cheaper. hes a great fit but hes a 5th/6th option and i doubt he'd leave this squad unless he got incredibly lowballed. tristan thompson couldve slipped into his spot and probably will at some point during that contract seamlessly

These NBA teams are much smarter than they were 10 years ago.

None of these contracts hurt the teams

Ricky's deal has the least amount of risk, the highest reward, and by the end will be the biggest steal.

Of course everyone here believes the exact opposite, but nobody could explain why, so that's the coli for ya
