From ESPN Insider: Clippers: First the world champion Bulls turned into the Clippers. Now, suddenly, the Clippers are looking like the old world champion Bulls. Donald Sterling knows he's going to have to pay. "I will tell you right now, I'm not going to screw this up," owner Donald Sterling said."I think it is going to be a privilege to pay Odom whatever the max is, and I think Brand may be another player just like that and I will pay him the max. I think Darius Miles is going to be a max player, Corey Maggette might even be another one." No team has four "max" players on their roster at the moment. Looks like Sterling is finally realizing that he has one of the best young teams in the league and he is going to have to shell out the $$$ to keep them. I am glad to see the image of the Clippers changing, but can Sterling's word be trusted? ------------------
What is the Max now. .. 16 million? Times 4 What is that . . . 64 million on 4 players Looks more like the next portland to me. Rocket River ------------------
I'm surprised he has enough money left to pay players after having to pay off all those people to keep his son out of jail. ------------------
The max for guys finishing up their rookie contracts I think is around 9-10 mil ------------------ It's a ring toss game.
so does Utah and those two teams have exactl HOW MANY RINGS IN THE LAST 2 DECADES???? Rocket River The allusion to portland is about contracts not about playing ability. I'm talking about trying to BUY a championship not to mention they should get eaten up by the luxury tax ------------------
He needs to hurry up and pay Bill Fitch first... ------------------ "I had mine chewed off by a boss one time." -- Behad leaves us wondering if he gets hazard pay...
