I'd be surprised if Salmons didn't re-sign, last I heard he wanted a 4 year deal though.

And it's easy to forget he's already past 30.

and Maggette's older then Salmons

i'm a little skeptical with Maggette's fit in Skiles system/rotation

now it will be interesting to see what contract Salmons will get. i don't blame the guy for opting out. this will be his last chance for a big payday. iirc he couldn't get anything more then the MLE a few years back. now that he's 30- i don't see him getting >$9mil/yr contract from anybody

Good for him?

[air gordon]

what's your point of mentioning Salmons age in the first place? to let us know Salmons gets a better rate on his car insurance then the 16-24 age range?

[benji]

He's 30 years old, is decidedly average, and the only thing he's done of any note in his career is jack up a bunch of shots for two morbid offenses over the last year and a half. You don't sign those types of players to any long term deal.

actually most teams do and then spend the next 4-5 years sucking up the league

i heard 4yrs/27mil was offered by the Bucks

according to david aldridge- Milwaukee close to re-signing John Salmons for five years, $39M

and yahoo- Drew Gooden has reached agreement on a five-year, $32 million contract with the Milwaukee Bucks, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

Bucks is likely becoming a Spurs.

...the fuck? when the bucks get three nba titles in a decade, or even take down the #2 seed in a playoff series....then i'll stop thinking that this is the most incoherent sentence ever crafted.

I'm guessing they'll look to move Redd, whose $18 million contract expires at the end of the season.

Perhaps this will come to pass after all, now that Salmons appears to be returning.
