How does Doug McDermott get $7-8M and Ed Davis gets $4.4M? This Davis signing looks like a bargain to me.
McDermott 7.3mil 3 years, his age is great, his shooting is amazing. Nearly 500% on 3's when he was with Mavs, decent contract, nothing outrageous.
As a Blazers fan, this one hurts. People on the outside don't realize it, but Ed was the heart and soul of the team. I think it's time to get a new GM
Our guy Davis going for 4.4M. Man, Sean Marks quietly doing solid work with the Nets. That 4.4M is just slightly more than what Tarik Black made for the Rockets.
Being a true big simply isn't as lucrative these days. Not too long ago if you were 7 foot tall, and run the court without falling you were guaranteed the MLE.
