Jet wants to return - Page 2 - Basketball Forum : Professional and College Basketball Forums

It didnt know he was making 7.5mil now. I kept thinking 6.5mil. In that case a 5 year 45mil deal or a 4 year 36mil deal sounds good to me.

Terry is 29 in September. Even if he was 30, JET is not a player that relies on superior athleticism, so a 5 year deal wouldn't be unthinkable. Think Cassell. The years are often more important to the player than the dollars. If Dallas refuses anything over a 4 year deal, they are sailing in dangerous waters with a core piece of their future championship hopes.

Yea I dont think Dallas would refuse a 4 year deal or anything longer because anything lower than that, JET will be looking at another team.

JET is a core piece on your team, and he will definitely be resigned at any cost. Moneybags paid about $100 million in salary this year due to luxury tax. If Terry is resigned at the deal I mentioned above, Dallas only pays $3-4 mil in luxury tax. Cuban is only paying around $83 million in total salary. He's saving $17 million dollars even though he gets a resigned Terry. Plus, some are saying the salary cap and therefore the luxury tax level are going to increase next year.

Bottom line, I see absolutely no reason that Terry won't be in a Dallas uniform next year, even if it means Cuban has to overpay him.

Your numbers come the closest to mine. In fact, they are identical!

Terry will for sure ask for a 5 year deal. Anything less than that time frame would mean he's stuck well past his prime without a solid contract (see KVH next year... LOL).

I am thinking a 5 year deal for 45-48 mil with 10+ mil in the final year.

30 million for 5 years sounds nice

$6 million a year? That's about a $2 mil pay cut next year from what he's currently making. That puts him below Stackhouse! Seems pretty low to me...if I'm Jason Terry I know I can get more than that elsewhere. Sure, winning is important. Winning should be important enough to Cuban as well, enough to pay Terry what he's worth and keep him in a Dallas uniform.

JET's going to take a paycut if he wants to stay, there's no question about that. We have draft picks this year and free agent signing to do - not to mention, Josh Howard didn't even make a million dollars this year, pretty pathetic.

Wow, you'd rather let him go than pay him at minimum his current salary? Your #27 pick will make less than $800k the first year, so I wouldn't be worried about draft picks. FA signing will not cost you more than $6 mil. Dang, I'd rather dump Stackhouse for nothing than let Terry walk for nothing...

**StackAttack** · 06-22-2006, 07:59 PM

No, I want Terry, don't get me wrong...there's just no plausible way for him to stay with a raise though, in my mind. Cuban says things are staying the same, but I see big changes this off-season.

And people that compare this deal to the Nash deal are crazy. The reason Cuban didn't want to off the long contract to Nash was because while he was in Dallas, he always seemed to breakdown near the end of the season. Terry hasn't show that yet in his carrer.

Agreed, very different circumstances between the two situations.

Don't forget KVH's 15+ mil will be gone from the payroll next year. I don't think Terry should take a paycut. If Cuban can absolutely not afford to give Terry a raise, at least match his salary with Stack's.

I think that KVH money will be used to extend Howard and sign Terry. I will be extremely nervous if Harris has to run this team. I do think he will be great, but he is just to inconsistent right now.
