It wasn't as hard a pitch as people are making it out to be.... Plus he came here and got first a first hand look at our revamped D... Last season...

Its a great deal imo.
The $54ml sounds huge but only $28ml is gaureteed.

28 guaranteed in the first 3 years, I believe... So no more dead money after 3 seasons

Its a great move with that in mind.Get the best years of his career and not be on the hook for tons of dead money if he declines in later years.

Or outright cut him when his age gets 30+ or his play declines

I argued about his gas tank. I was handed a jacket that buckles in the back.

didn't see this one coming, even if there is interest this just reeks of driving up the price to the team that actually signs him

I'd take a serving of crow gumbo to go
