Burks 4 year $42 million extension!

$5 the Jazz said "Well there is no way in hell we are giving Kanter any money, so lets throw a few extra million at Burks to make him feel loved."

DL is smart enough to treat both cases completely independent. Rich Cho might have got him to up it a couple million though.
 
no matter how we slice it that is way way too much.

i like that we are opening up our wallet. it's a good sign. we want to show others that we are willing to pay. but man, both hayward and burks contract is hard to swallow.
 
my problem is they aren't paying for what they are worth now. they are paying for what they are hoping to be in the future. it's a too big of a risk for me.
 
Some quotes regarding the deal:

David Locke: The extension for Alec Burks starts in 15-16 so depending on the smoothing of the cap it might be 1 year over pay 3 year under pay Twitter @Lockedonsports -

Jody Genessy: Jazz guard Alec Burks' contract extension -- 4 years, $42M (up to $45M with incentives) -- has been finalized, per sources. Twitter @DJJazzyJody

And my favorite!

Jody Genessy: There are no options on Alec Burks' four-year deal, which begins in 2015-16. He made it clear to the Jazz that he wants to play in Utah. Twitter @DJJazzyJody
