It's not squeezing if it's his value.

So you propose a significant paycut? make him the starter with the lowest salary (on a non-rookie deal) despite being on the team for more than 7 years? how does he feel after looking at how the negotiations with Ingles went last year?. Nah, I don't see DL maximizing his leverage on this one. The Jazz care about chemistry and being perceived as a classy organization that treat their players well.
 
So much of the money is already gone. Lakers better not offer Exum a huge deal. I like our chances at getting him for a good price at this point.
 
yup, that's what I expect to happen. 10-12M per year is plausible but I imagine DL offering a slight raise on a 1 or 2 year deal. That would be a fair deal. The Jazz want to show that they take care of their own FA, just like they did with Ingles last year.

The difference is that there were reports that several other teams were prepared to offer Ingles at least as much as the Jazz did, and I believe Orlando was going to offer him even more than the Jazz. That's not the case with Favors, there just isn't much of a market for him. Paying a guy way over his market value seems like a bad way to do business, especially for a small market team like the Jazz.
 
Business is business. You don't give millions away cause it's a nice thing to do. Especially since he was always hurt until he gets into a contract year. He's not a perfect fit next to Rudy. If he was a good shooter he'd be worth 15 mil.
