I'm dissappointed we signed him to a 5 year $125M contract. If he wanted 5 years, then it should have been $100M. If he wanted $25M, then it should have been for 3 years with maybe an option for the 4th.


That was probably the biggest miscalculation by Demps. If we offered his market value of $18ish, would Jrue take someone else's $18 because he felt disrespected? Yes. But if they only offered 3 years in an offseason where comparable players got deals of 3 years or less, would he take someone elses 3/$60 instead of the Pels 3/$75? I seriously doubt it.
