Just don’t see it. Guy usually wilts/disappears in big postseason games late.

I definitely thought it was time to go a different direction than the Tatum/Brown combo

 

[Tanko]

Is it all guaranteed?
If so, Wow $60M/yr.

$8M/yr more than Curry, $12M more than Durant.....
I'm not an NBA expert but this seems nuts.

 

[DiggityDaggityDo]

Is this the guy who can’t dribble with his left hand?

 

[carolinakid]

they want to raise tickets prices again, really getting stupid the amount these players get and not worth it either

 

[sharpsquare]

Damn! Have to say I didn't see that one coming. Seems to be a drastic overpay

 

[carolinakid]

they are all over paid today, but that life in today world, while teachers and police get nothing, we have created a monster

Saquon Barkley is questioning why he didn't play basketball now.

 

[samsncharge99]

insane, but this is the new normal. close to billion dollar contracts in next 10 years unless Saudi just pays everyone

 

[billythegoat]

This has to be an Onion piece…

 

[carolinakid]

this is why a average family of 4 cant go to many live events these days and it will get worst

 

[aikman.tr]

Seemingly more and more owners are paying these record breaking contracts. They are pushing out the working man to favor the elite with deep pockets that will pay $1000 for a seat.

 

[carolinakid]

to me jerry jones is the worst to not get nothing in return from players

 

[Wagerallsports]

I don't think the money matters anymore in the NBA

It's just a matter of locking up a good player

And those are limited in the league so you got to stick with one if you have it

 

[carolinakid]

^^^^^ yes but the sad thing it past down to the fans buying tickets and food ect at the events, i try to give away tickets here to events to churches and children that otherwise would not go to events in my area

 

[meyer66karl]

I don't understand what Celtics are trying to do honestly.. Jaylen Brown, really?!

 

[Stallion]

It's gonna be the worst contract ever.

 

[BMR Genie]

I don't understand what Celtics are trying to do honestly.. Jaylen Brown, really?!

They are clearly not good at negotiation.

 

[jjgold]

Might be the worst contract, NBA history

 

[stormtrooper8]

The Boston Celtics is low one of the most overrated franchises in professional sports history

Won so many titles when the league was small, non-competitive

Haven't done shit for decades

Laughable when people say it's a better franchise than the Los Angeles Lakers
