Contracts are certainly not being handed out like they use to.
$19M is unheard of today except for the select few, upper echelon, legit franchise talents - which Gay is not.
I also think he'd rather be looking for his final pay day at 29 versus 32. It is not only the $7M or so "lost" next year it is also about what would he make at 33. I think he makes more at 33 signing when he is 29 than he would make at 33 looking for that season.
Thinking about this actually gives me a shred of hope that his trade value might be a little higher due to the (my opinion) higher probability he signs for next year..... or maybe it makes it lower.... damn, confusion sets in again.
