Bibby and Kings aren't even close to a deal
http://www.sacbee.com/content/sports...-4635608c.html
Do you still think that Sacramento will be able to re-sign Bibby?
I do, I just think that it will take longer than the Kings organization thought.

Haha, they'll be fine. It's just business, that's all. As much as it sucks, and everyone knows the outcome, its just business

He won't explore other offers, no one else can afford him!

If I were Bibby, I wouldn't sign a long term deal with the Kings, I'd sign a 3 or 4 year deal. If the Kings started winning rings, I'd stay, but if they didn't, I'd explore other options after the 3 or 4 years were up.

That would definitely be a huge gamble because he would be taking less guaranteed money. He could break his leg 2 years into the contract and never be the same, but if he signs long-term, he will still get paid. Wheras, if he signs for 4 years and disaster happens then he will lose a lot of money..... Anyways, in a way it makes sense because in 4 years he could be up for another big pay day.

Bibby will sign because I think I heard some sports reporter say Sacramento hates Bobby Jackson.

I can't see Bibby going anywhere. He knows that the Kings offer him a very good chance at a championship and I think he is very happy there, meaning he has very little leverage. I think he is just doing this so that he can try to get the biggest contract he can. No one will sign him because the Kings will just match it... but if I was a team with cap room I would damn sure offer him a HUGE contract...you never know Sacramento may balk and lose him. Plus, if the Kings match it than you just drove up the price and screwed the Kings payroll, stopping a potential dynasty before it happens.
