Re: Salmons deal in limbo?
Ya'll are forgetting something, while it's 23 million dollars in TOTAL, it's about 2+ million per year. Meanwhile, IF the Miami Heat are offering their full MLE, or even 3.5 million dollars. It'll be the best deal he could possibily get. The only thing this does, is we don't have our 2nd rounder. Johnny wants a title, he can go get one, it's not like we'll over-look his ring. We'll always remember him for his seemingly endless amounts of turnovers. And unlike Louis Williams, he actually had 4 years at the point, and Louie actually tried with his heart. Salmons is a lazy bum, he'll never use his actual talents, and is not worth anything. But this ain't gonna hurt Miami so who cares.

The public school system in this state is in trouble.
It was $23 million over five years, which averages to over $4 million a year.

Re: Salmons deal in limbo?

Re: Salmons deal in limbo?
Okay, let me get this straight. Salmons rejected the sign-and-trade to Toronto, which cost us a 2nd Rd pick. Now he just signed on with the Sacramento Kings.
My question is why didn't he just sign with the Kings or Raptors at the start? Why involve us at all?? What's all this sign-and-trade business? Can someone with some insight explain. I know sign-and-trades have been happening for yrs but this one is confusing...

The reason he had to involve the Sixers was because before they declined his QO they still had his rights and could have matched any offer. They could have just waited untill he got something from another team and just matched it to piss him off or just screw up the other team's plans and they could have held him hostage if he signed a tender from another team. Now that they declined his QO they lost his bird rights on top of it.
