    Why is Kobe even involved with free agent talks? He's done with this franchise, there is absolutely no need to gauge chemistry or figure out how new players will work with Kobe, because he's going to play a few weeks of this season, he's going to strain something, and that will be it.

    He's not worth $10M to a team that won't contend.

    Is he worth $10 million now? Seems like they overpaid?

    To a team that really needs a wing defender? Yeah he is. Maybe it's a bit more than he's worth but not by much. But to act like the Knicks dodged a bullet is odd. They gave him away because they aren't a contender and won't be for a while not because he'd command too much money.

    Because Jim "Tommy Boy" Buss is an idiot.

    I'd say 2-3 million per year is overpaying by a lot.

    Shumpert is a great defender who just needs more shots

    the Cavs should make him feel welcomed

    Shumpert couldn't make shots during most of the Finals though. defensively yeah sure, he's a presence, but offensively was a liability.

    He had a healthy body at times on the Knicks and his offense was spotty at best. He got hurt in his 2nd year and hasn't really been the same since.

    He got thumped by Green on an illegal screen and was already playing too many minutes. If the Cavs had a full roster he probably would have missed two games in that series.

    Someone did an analysis on how many illegal screens the Warriors set in that final series, it was a YouTube video floating around somewhere. The number of illegal screens was well into the double digits.

    Is it? He got $85M I thought $90M was the max for him?

    I guess he ended up taking $82M / 5 years. That contract will look silly in a few years (assuming Draymond keeps up the good work).

    HE IS GOING TO SCORE LIKE, 50 A GAME.

    Sure the Sixers are going to only average about 72 points a game.

    Maybe so I'm fairly certain he can't get a much bigger long-term deal than he just got right now.

    For some reason, I thought he was under different constraints since he was a 2nd round pick. I'm probably wrong.

    Five years guaranteed with a team he just won a ring with, at the age of 25 with only one breakout season? That's a deal he can't say no to.

    Yeah. I just wanted him on the Pistons.

    Maybe he'll have a down year and we can snag him in a trade.

    I'm delighted that players are no longer considering the supposed off-the-court opportunities of big markets and are making decisions based on basketball.

    I am super duper glad Monroe passed, as the Knicks had offered him the max for whatever amount of years he wanted and he still said no. Its like, phew.

    Also Afflalo for $8 million per > Shumpert for $10 per in my opinion

    Oh it looks like the Knicks were actually not offering Monroe the max? I don't know anymore.

    The Knicks and Lakers both claim they didn't offer him the max and Monroe's agent is saying everyone offered him the max. All interested parties have incentive to lie so believe whomever you want.
