Nets considering DMo offer

He wouldn't be tradable until next December. That ties up $10M or so for next summer's FA market.

 

I think you match that, but let's see what the terms are.

 

Match it

Oh, and @basketballholic was wrong all this time about a DMo Gets His Big Money. This is really just longer, not more money than the $8m starting salary we heard in July

 

If we match, he becomes our 4th-highest paid player. Ariza's contract was such a shrewd deal by Morey.

 

Wow that is a bargain deal - surprised it is for 4 years.....would have thought there were some Player options in there.

IF we get the DMo of two years ago, $9 per year is a steal.

 

Eh, i'm not sure it's that easy, if you match you may need to dump Trevor and/or Pat next summer to create a max spot, not sure this is absolutely correct but not that far from the truth i think...i hope to be wrong and we match but eh...

 

Bholic wrong? I am shocked! Shocked, I tell you!

 

Can't wait to see how much is guaranteed. That's the real story. The numbers are not bad except that we can't trade him for a full year from now.

 

Lols

basketballholic was either very wrong about the numbers, or was wrong about saying BJ and DMo aren't morons for not signing 3/45 to 4/60, and losing all that money by holding out for more.

Looks like DMo lost $26m by not signing "$23m plus ~$3m for missed games", AND lost an entire guaranteed year.

 

Honestly I don't see how DMo fits in our new offense. Can't shoot like Ryan Anderson, can't play defense like Capela. I mean sure he is decent, but you don't know how well he is physically. I feel like he has gotten close to his ceiling. I loved DMo in the 2014-15 season, but now I don't think we need him. I'd rather see more Harrell and Dekker.

 

Only the first 2 years are guaranteed, per Woj.

 

MATCH

 

2 non guaranteed years on back end? Are they player or team options?

If they are TEAM options it is a slam dunk match.

Amazing steal of a deal, just match it now and have him for the next game after Denver.

 

Wow. I can't see how we don't match.

 

I'd match that

 

Match all the way.
