    Market determining his value = Another team signing him.He's not an rfa

    You have to overpay to retain him or he's walking

    By how much though. 30 per year is too much. Aint nobody maxing him out. Might as well let him walk instead of pulling a Mike Conley.

    They still have to Max out Boogie.

    If they are at the least competent, He should not make more than AD or Boogie. He is the 3rd wheel and should be paid as such.

    Oh my stars :s

    There's a team out there where their highest paid player is bismack biyombo


    But Thomas said y'all have 16 mil if he walks...you can still get a Derrick rose or a jeff Teague POSSIBLY for that

    Actually pairing up rose with the worst medical staff in the league isn't smart forget what I said. Sign Jrue and then root for an extremely top heavy team for the future

    and man, the Knicks just knicking. I know whats going on. They thinking about hiring David Griffin, and I know its because they think they have a chance at Bron if they do, and they thinking about Sam Presti cause they think they have a chance at Westbrook if they do. smh. Just get someone that has paid his dues, has a clear plan, a clear philosophy, and let dude build up step by step.

    yo im not even trolling when I say this, but I hear the Pelicans are gonna make Jrue the highest paid pg in the league.

    and then someone else will be the highest paid next year

    i know its the fun thing to do to ? the jokes, but once you understand how the CBA works, its not hard to believe that he will command that kinda salary

    put it like this. I just want to see a healthy team to bring some life to the city and not be the stepchild to the saints. I watch the games for different reasons

    if we're being honest, i know its easy for us to sit here an analyze contracts like this one and Evan Turner or Mike Conley, but man, im all about these dudes getting the most money they can.

    huge difference, and I'm sure we both agree, is that Jrue dont deserve that contract. When Mike Conley became the highest paid player, it was cool, hes that good. When Westbrook, Curry, Wall etc. become the highest paid pg even for a year, its cool, but Jrue? yall ? up.

    I get that the Pelicans cant get free agents, so they gotta keep who they can, but past the fact that Jrue is just not that good, but hes also injury prone. Yall bout to ? up your next 5 years.

    But, I rather it be yall then us cause the Knicks liable to do some dumb ? like that too.

    I know salaries are relative to the current cap and landscape and all that, but man, some ? just don't seem right. Jrue and highest paid anything shouldn't ever go together.

    its not about what he deserves, its about the leverage he has to negotiate
