Max Out Matthews?

Looking at Matthew's stats, over the 5.5 years he has been in the league, he has shot below 35% from deep in only 3 months (in months with over 10 games) and that was twice in his rookie year.
 
8-10 mil max. No way Matthews is a Max player. He is in ballpark of Aaron Afflalos upcoming deal. Good news is Portland will not likely be able to keep both. Maybe Paul Allen will spend though?

Everything hinges on whether or not Aldridge stays or leaves.
 
8-10 million a joke for Matthews though. He is worth at least 12 easy.

I think Carroll may get $8-10 M... Wes' range starts at 12.

Take whatever you think is a good price and times it by 150% and that will be closer to what they get.
 
Because it would seem to me that the wealth would get spread around more to all of the players, rather just the free agent class in 2016.


Here is a quote from a story about it






They are denying anyone any money. They are just spreading it around.

Oh, knowing that, it now makes some sense. Thank you. Like I said, I know very little about the whole situation. I would still vote against that plan, however.

What would the max be for Matthews? I have a feeling many people are including nostalgia as a factor in their analysis.
 
:facepalm:

You don't think it's a little convenient for Lebron to have the cap jump all the way up the year he can sign a new deal and get a fat raise?
You don't think that's a conflict of interest? Of course Lebron the wanna be billionaire will be all for the major increase.


Facepalm yourself bitch.


The people who benefit the most from a one time jump are the people of the 2016 fa class. They all will benefit from it eventually, but why not everyone benefit right off the bat?


If I'm a player and I just signed my new deal, (like Favors), then I'm voting for a piece of the pie to come my way right now. I don't want to wait til I'm a free agent again.

I agree.

Mathews is a really smart player, and plays hard. He helps win games. I couldn't believe we didn't keep him, and signed Raja Bell. One of the worst basketball decisions ever made in the history of sports. Boom.
 
Should we do it?

What else are we going to spend our money on?

Does it affect our ability to keep any of our core?

God no. You're better than this.
 
I'm not going to go through the thread, but has anyone explained why they think the Spurs will match Leonard? They're losing their stars, and pop is likely gone. It would make sense that they'll go full rebuild. If that is the case, would Leonard be interested in joining the Jazz? Or is he more likely to go to a contender?

Full rebuild for SAS doesn't necessarily mean not matching Leonard - it more than likely means letting Duncan and Ginobli retire and then dumping Diaw - that's 25+ mil right there..
