I think the FVV contract was great it's pretty cheap for a PG man. the only OG's making less then Fred are Cory Joseph pat Beverly and DJ Austine the rest are dudes on rookie contracts or vets like Calderon. FVV for 2 years at 9 mil is a good deal 4 the team. we may end paying our next backup more then that and wish their was a 3rd year on f refs dealTo be the champs you got to beat the champs

I think we do overpay our guys. Kyle has the 7th highest salary this year. Powell has not played anywhere near his $10M salary. FVV is making 30% above league avg ($6.9M) and 3x league median ($3M). He is getting starter $'s (granted low end of pay scale) after 1 year in back-up role. Perhaps our slightly higher tax structure contributes some of the premium. Being the only non-US club could be another. All I'm saying is we do seem to pay a premium, as to why?Last edited by Zak24gege; Sat Feb 23, 2019, 04:46 PM.

All those posters The Great One quoted were criticizing DeMar for going into the locker room post game. He then posted a tweet that showed Danny Green did the EXACT SAME thing when we played in San Antonio and not one of them made a sound.
So you should be telling all of them to "breathe" not me. I had no issue with DeMar going into the locker room to see his friends, just like I had no issue with Green doing it. I am consistent, they are not because they hate DeRozan.

Norm is really the only bad contract on the team but if he comes around it could be a valuable trade. Lots of people have been ripping on FVV contract i think its ridiculous. Thats not starter money man can you point me to a starting PG in this league that make less then fred? (rookie contracts done count).

FVV was a solid back-up PG for 1 year. (Basketball-Reference.com).Last edited by bertarapsfan; Sat Feb 23, 2019, 05:34 PM.To be the champs you got to beat the champs

I can't attribute the behaviour to a single player other than agree it's the star players that determine the trends with the supporting cast following his / her's example.

That excludes all the starting players on rookie deals and the position. PG tend to get more $ the top 3 contracts right now are all PGs. Search up just PG contracts. I think you'll be surprised to see the dudes in FVV range. And look at the type of money guys like reggie jackson, jeff teague and ricky rubio are getting payed. FVV contract if anything a underpay. No problem with the moneys he getting.

And if it was was back when they played in San Antonio, it wasn't reported anywhere that I saw then. So how could anyone have criticized it?Last edited by G__Deane; Sat Feb 23, 2019, 06:46 PM.
