Says every fan site on the internet ... (with the misspelling) Remember all the years of missing playoffs, with threads like this starting in the Dish/GARM during the playoffs, as we watch and sadly yearn for the unheralded players on other teams who make a name for themselves in the playoffs. Well, now we have the one everyone is talking about.
Beverley makes $6 million this season, $5m next season, and $5m in 2018-19. This 4-year, $25M contract, signed in 2015, is ridiculous under the new cap numbers. Meanwhile, Corey Brewer also signed in 2015, for 3 years and $24M. How the hell did this happen?
Luckily for us Bev was coming off a subpar year that ended in March due to injury. At the time it was a very fair contract. Especially for Bev since it was his first real contract. Meanwhile, Pistons signed Reggie Jackson also in 2015, for a 5 year $80M contract. WOOF.
Beverley grew up in Southside Chicago, attended Arkansas, and has played in the Ukraine, Greece, Russia, the Miami Heat summer league, and Serbia before finally getting a real chance in the NBA with Houston. That's why he says he owes this franchise everything. That's also why he says nothing will ever intimidate him on or off the court. He's literally grinded his way to where he is today. http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2017/4/...ckets-annoying-defense-nba-playoffs-westbrook This is a good write-up about yesterday's game, and his impact on our team.
PBev makes me think Morey should work harder to find a new PBev every year. I mean how hard can it be???
