I'm sure they were going to offer it to Harden, but they still haven't found him since the finals

I'm sure everyone will jump tot he conclusion that this means they won't try to re-sign/extend Harden, but that's not what this means.

Apparently the deal is in the $40M range, so about $10M per year. Not sure what his value on the market would've been, but that may actually be a little cheaper than I figured they'd have to pay to keep him. I was thinking somewhere in the 10-12 million range.

Javale McGee's contract is $44 Million for 4 years, so $11 Million a year.

good for the Serge Protector.
I hope he gets Andy V money at least
Re: Serge Ibaka has reached agreement on a four-year contract extension
Personally I don't think he's worth $10m per.. He didn't exactly have a huge impact in the playoffs/finals.. But I'm sure other teams would have lined up if they didn't lock him up.
I think him and harden are really only worth around $5m per year each..NBA, where role players get severely overpaid..

I thought he might end up demanding $11-$13 million if he hit the market in the summer so, if it is for $10M or so a year, then it sounds like Presti worked his magic and got a pretty decent deal. Now the plus could mean it's something like a 4yr/$45M deal which would put it at about $11M a year, but still, that's about what I figured that might be the least Presti could get away with offering if he waited until the summer to match another team's offer.
Re: Serge Ibaka has reached agreement on a four-year contract extension
He would've gotten more on the open market so in that sense OKC saved money and made a smart move.
However, I don't think he is worth $10M a year seeing as how he is neither a huge offensive threat nor a center. Shot blocking PFs shouldn't get paid that much.

Great news for the Thunder. Now go sign Harden. I like how they're sticking with there core, NBA take notes.
