Tristan got slightly overpaid but there was no choice . Had to do it.
Now, with the cap going where its going, he goes from slightly overpaid to in-line with what he deserves to be paid.
If he improves,. he will go from properly paid to a great deal.
He still hasn't signed this deal, and that scares me.
You can't sign a deal until July 9th or 10th...can only agree on it, and he agreed on it.
Where? All I've seen is that he was close to agreeing to that 80 mil contract. Not that he has agreed yet.
I wouldn't worry too much. If its being widely reported, which it was, its a done deal. Probably hasn't been fully agreed on because Tristan is out of the country.
I'm not worried that he'll be back. Just worried that whatever the hang up is turns into the contract being 90 mil when it's all said and done.
I think he has more upside than Andy.Thank you. I appreciate your breakdown.
I just can't fathom how TT is worth 80 million bucks. I love him as a fan favorite, but I see him as a poor mans Andy. This deal is just a head scratch-er.
actually can't remember the last time this happenedMy god, you'd think posters on this board were paying this dudes salary...never understood why FANS complain about salaries in professional sports.
Shit, can't we all just be happy that a core that went 33-3 after the trades when all healthy is back and signed long-term?

Because a salary cap exists. Bigger the salary the harder it is to make moves later on if the need for it arises.
Otherwise Dan Gilbert might as well pay Delly 15 million a year, makes no difference to me.
