This is a good deal, but Jeremy Lin is overpaid.







:oldlol:

What the....$12 million a year?

:biggums:

How much is the Nets paying for in salaries this season? Looks mind-boggling.:eek:

I'm so happy the Bobcats didn't go along with that ridiculous shit. This man is only a starts if his only competition for that position is Shelden Williams.

What can Humphries actually do other than get 10 rebounds on a team with literally no other players trying to get rebounds?

12Million. Aka 1M per Pt/rbd.

:bowdown:

Please... :rolleyes:
Glad humphries is back. 12 per year isnt that bad when it's only 2 years.

Don't have it down to the dollar, but new deals for Deron, Wallace, Lopez, Hump, Watson, Stack, plus JJ contract, in neighborhood of..$325M.

:oldlol:

all for the 5 seed

The Nets will pay >60 million dollars just on the starting unit alone: Deron/Johnson/Wallace/Humphries/Lopez.

Talk about wasting money.

nets going all in on better than avg players

Nuts

If nets want dwight by deadline not sure this contract is a good idea

That's definitely. Garunteed.

i think they have a trade in mind by the trade deadline

Glad to hear that Humphries is staying. He is a double double player regardless how you want to put it. Makes our roster that much deeper. And if they are planing a trade for Dwight in the future, so be it.

Last seasons team was built for a possible Dwight trade. It's only 12 million though. At the point where they could trade for Humphries it will basically be half way through the season anyway.

Surprising In a way that hump didn't push for a longer deal. That seemed to of been his main target all summer.

Absolutely. Id take Landry over him anyway. Plus he will probably be cheaper. If not we'll have to have Ty step up (If WE DON'T amnesty him)

Can't believe he got this much cash. Whoever his agent is deserves a raise.

[QUOTE=All Net]Surprising In a way that hump didn't push for a longer deal. That seemed to of been his main target all summer.[/QUOTE]

I'm sure he did, but nobody thought he deserved that type of contract with the amount of money he desired. Can't blame them either, this guy was massively overpaid.

wtf are you talking about? Dude should be making mid level money. How did they get scammed into this?


It is probably just making it a big contract so they can make the prearranged trade for dwight easier in january. between him and lopez they will be able to take back turkeyglue or a combo of other ridiculous contracts. though I still dont understand why duhons contract is thrown in there. sure, hes barely nba level bench player, but its only 3.5 for 2 more years.

He

Very good part on the nets only giving him a two year deal. Two years is very apealing in a Howard trade if one was to happen. Being a double double machine and 5th in rebounding deserves 12 million in my opinion. It's starting to get really annoying how so many losers keep commenting on every new contract players are recieving. It's not your money so stop hating.

I actually live in a world where Kris Humphries makes $12 mil a year. :facepalm

But it [B]is[/B] my money! As a tax paying citizen...oh wait, I was thinking of the bailouts.

Nets throwing around money like they just don't care lol. Its obvious thet he'll be used as a trading chip. Hump for 2 years isn't as bad as some of these other contacts, I mean he's shown he can put up consistent effort over 2 years.

Is there another team, whose lowest paid starter makes 10 million a year. :eek:

[B]As some of you have pointed out, I forgot to add Reggie Evans to the Nets' outlay this month. Corrected. Make it around $330M in new deals.[/B]

Not bad considering NETS need a Guy who can rebound next to Lopez and also could be a Trading Chip on such a short deal. Hump is a solid Player as well considering some other washed up bums are getting it is not a terrible contract.

CHA offered Hump 3-yr, $28mill deal.

A lot, but whatever. Trying to win a championship here. I'd be pissed if we spent this before last season when we were destined to be bad.

Sounds pretty reasonable for a guy coming off back-to-back double double seasons.

[QUOTE=Faptastrophe]CHA offered Hump 3-yr, $28mill deal.[/QUOTE]

Why would they offer him a shitty contract like that? They might get a few more wins in the short run but it will hurt them in the long run. Have another shitty season, get a top 3-5 pick and then start to sign some players.. Draft a player like C.Zeller and build around the core of MKG, Zeller, Biyombo..

Humphries now getting 12 million...has there honestly ever been a summer where more role players have gotten paid allstar money than this one? Absolutely ridiculous, and at the clown trying to say "its just 12m" your a flat out moron :facepalm:

10 mil/year would have been fairer, but since it's only for two years... not bad.

He has improved a lot over the years, and other than being a TV celebrity/douche bag, I don't see where the hate comes from.

BKN needed a big guy who can rebound and get easy buckets within the flow of the game without taking touches away from the other starters, and he fits the bill.

He's been also developing a nice little jumper, and if he continues to work on it (he's gonna have to since he's only getting a 2-year deal), he can become their third best player before the end of this season.

Not the worst contract this offseason. I thought the Nets didn't have the money to resign him. It's not like him and his agent would expect a similar salary to his last one.

then, pray tell, what is the worst contract this offseason? I cant think of one worse than this. Maybe Crash? Lin and Asik are about 8 mil per and both much more impactful than this dude, despite his statline. Besides, they had to be structured that way to pry them as RFA away from their former teams. People seem to forget how terrible this team was last year, and they are returning three of the starters but are now playoff bound?

Riley would've gotten him for 3mill a year :yaohappy: but the dude is seriously underrated and hated because he was fooled into a fake marriage...that's how pathetic ppl are while americas slut is running around being famous for getting fcked on camera
