I actually don't know, I've always preferred 6 to 7 because it gives you more flexibility.

Incremental pay increases are more, you know this. Money now is worth more than money later, financing principles. Has absolutely nothing--literally nothing--to do with wanting to have a franchise player locked up for an extra year. Ridiculous.

How is a 33 year old one dimensional C who has been declining worth 14mil to a rebuilding team? I don't care that much because I knew someone would overpay and I would lose him. People always try to steal teams that make the finals players.
I just didn't think he would get nearly 14mil (I only offered 9 or 10)

I don't see how it was a bad signing. Looks perfectly fine.

Like he said, it's better to use cap space than to not. This way he gets a great defensive/rebounding big man on a big expiring. It gives him more leverage in deals, a contract filler, and overall a good piece to work with.

Yeah... I was pissed at first and have felt like arguing like a dumbass ever since then.

Shit, lost Woods to Phoenix. That definitely kills me in my rebuilding mode.
Damn, I think this is the first Friday night in a long, long time I've actually stayed in while here at college. Have a final tomorrow at 12:30 and our senior design group was up until 8:00 AM this morning finishing our paper (and I haven't gone to bed yet lol!).
Maybe I'll take a break and have something else to say about this later, but I don't really have much to say at initial look.

I just didn't think he would get nearly 14mil (I only offered 9 or 10) didn't cross my mind. in fact i'd rather take a player from a fringe playoff team because that's who im competing with at this point.

I thought Diop getting that type of contract was pretty obvious. CJ, do you have anyone else you're looking to bring back? If not, why didn't you just give him 15 per? It'd have put you at 80 million with 10 guys.
