Lol it's 30+ million dollars for a measly season of basketball.
Dave is a good character to bring into this discussion. Dude turned down $50 million to keep Chapelle show going. He valued other things more. Must be an idiot, right?“The only difference between $10 million and $50 million is an incredible $40 million.”

So I’d counter with saying Mike is a fairly settled guy with two kids. They’ve only ever lived in Memphis. Family uproots last summer. Does he uproot again, and, if so, for what? Gets paid less. He’s in a situation with lots of FO and coaching staff support — to a fault. Which team has space to obtain him, has a need for him, and would be contending with where he’s happy with his role? Not saying that doesn’t exist, but when you’re talking about giving him reason to leave his current situation for something else, it’d have to have some upgrades in a number of those factors.Dave is a good character to bring into this discussion.

Yep, and it could be that this summer would be his best chance to land in such a place. I’m not saying it’s probable. But it certainly is possible. Please consult the “If” in the title.So I’d counter with saying Mike is a fairly settled guy with two kids. They’ve only ever lived in Memphis. Family uproots last summer.

Love has 4 more yr left on his contract, Conley only has 2...Conley for Love since the Cavs point guards blow and need a mentor to teach them? And since Love wants the **** out.

Horford opted out of like $29-30M to sign a deal worth nearly that much this year, plus like three more. Obviously we can say that in hindsight, but to some degree he had to know ballparks of what he would get offered. I don’t think there’s any way Conley lands that kind of deal.Al Horford just opted out of a very similar contract last summer to sign with the 76ers. In a different summer he might opt out, especially if the rest of the year remains this bad. However, there are not many teams with money to spend next summer, so for that reason I think he opts in.
