Celtics Sign Jaylen Brown To Super-Max Extension

It's the most lucrative contract in NBA history.

Top 30-40 player gets top 1 money…

That's a little harsh, but that's also way too much money. That all-NBA team made it rain, lol...

It would be a 3 team deal most likely.

The Mavs have 3 recently acquired or re-signed centers already and are looking to shed another (JeVale): Holmes, Powell and Lively. Not big names (other than the rookie), but solid players.

Undeserved as well

No chance he belonged

Yeah they want to get of 2 of those guys. Just a bunch of below average garbage at center

To upgrade they're going to need to dangle something intriguing. Maybe O-Max?

Who said that?

I remember the speculation that he wouldn’t resign after it seemed that he wasn’t getting along well with LeBron and Kyrie.

But I had also heard Love and the Cavs had a gentlemen’s agreement that he would resign after the year was up if Cleveland traded for him.

don't recall exactly but plenty of rumors after that season........until he met with Lebron on vacation.

Insanely overpayed. Wtf man...

I heard both things.

So whoever was saying no chance was clearly exaggerating.

I don’t think Mitchell’s chances of resigning are zero either.

But probably lower than Love’s who at least had a handshake deal to live up to.

Question is, do you sell now?

Or roll the dice?

Dude hates Brown because of his personal politics.

But, he ain’t wrong.

I don’t know about top 30-40.

But, he ain’t top 10.

…..and that’s top 5 money….imo

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Damn, Bronny…..wtf?

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Hold the line, L Frank!!!!!

 

[thunderc]

Damn, Bronny…..wtf?

Saw where another USC player went into cardiac arrest less than a year ago and he is back playing. Seems weird.

The way the CBA is written it is top 25 money.

Anybody eligible for that deal can get it. And top 5 doesn’t unless it is their turn to hit FA.

If Damar Hamlin can do it then anyone can

after what happened with Boozer I doubt the Cavs are agreeing to any handshake deals.

as for Mitchell? The guy has done or said nothing that makes it seem like he's anything but happy to be here and loves his teammates. If I'm the Cavs and I get an inkling he wont resign? OK, then I address is.....but I'd likely wait until after the season unless he flat out said no way he's staying.

Have to say since Lebron's first time here I've heard a number of stories about guys who were going to the Knicks when they could.....but no stars ever do. Could he go somewhere? sure.

You keep bringing this up but its not that relevant for a pending free agent. He can play nice and ride out this season and next then leave for nothing. Not everyone can be James Harden. He probably does enjoy the guys but i do think he wants to play in a bigger market

 

[thunderc]

Well his was due to a blow to the chest.

 

[tlance]

I agree they shouldn’t trade for Harden.

But Terrance Mann isn’t the reason. Harden is.

Clippers should be honest and stop using that excuse.
