Yeah, he signed an extension. The big money will kick in starting next year. This year Lilliard is only making 4 million. Aminu is making 8 million and Ed Davis is making 7 million for the 2015 season.

I laughed at the deal in the offseason, but he has actually been pretty good for them.

Lillard has flashed potential. We knew he had it in him. Last year he was in a slump most of the year. He was a great player his rookie year. I totally expect this season for him to make the next step to Superstardom...(Just needs to work on his defense)

There is no way he will continue to shoot at such a high percentage. At some point in time he will remember he is Aminu and revert back to form.

That wasn't the point. Name another team that just came off of a well over .500 season and has a guy who doesn't even sniff an all-star team as their highest paid player.

At 8 million.

His 3 point shooting has already cooled off, gone from 47% to 34% in about a week. I think by the end of the deal when the cap is escalated and he's had 3 more years to work on his shot it will look like a good deal. Right now it's an overpay, but they have money to burn right now.

Idk if you guys have watched but Aminu has been very solid and he's our best on ball defender. His three percentage won't be in the 40s but mid 30s is still pretty good. It was a good deal this offseason and it's even better now.
