How much is Josh Giddey worth?

[fsvr54]

Even if Giddey was an unrestricted free agent, I wouldn't see any team willing to eat a turd sandwich on a sign a trade, nor scrambling to create the cap space needed for the teams that are close enough to clear the needed space.

I think his market is right around $20M on a 4yr deal or $24M on a 3 +1 team option.

I think teams like Orlando need to learn a thing or two about paying guys early and bidding against themselves (Suggs) because we see how discounts become readily available when teams are willing to be patient (Giddey, Kuminga, Thomas, and Grimes) you ultimately keep all the control.

Didn't Jabari Smith Jr just sign for 20mil a year? Giddey is without question a better player than him. 20 mil a year these days is like REGULAR starter money.

His comparative value isn't part of the equation. It's basically what can he get from other teams vs what the Bulls should be offering.

If you're asking me, Giddey is better than Suggs, so by that rationale he needs to be paid over $30M. But that's not the reality of the market.

Like I said, even if he was unrestricted, I wouldn't see a team clearing $30M in cap space to run out and sign him.

Sometimes players just get unlucky timing. This is one of those cases for him, Kuminga, Thomas, and Grimes. They will all get paid less than what comparable worse players got. I can realistically see a scenario where all 4 of those guys are playing on their QO and making less than Duncan Robinson next season.

You say you understand the value models better than I do, yet don't understand the value model where Giddey was extremely unlikely to take a $18M per year starting extension over the long term as Caruso was.



It's clear there is 0% understanding of payroll management on your end. I guess I've taken for granted my decade-plus corporate finance experience related to budget and strategic analysis is not symmetrical for the average Joe.

As Stevens finishes the touches on his conversion from Contender > Top 10 lottery entering squad while STILL paying exorbitant taxes all in one summer, you'll probably have no idea what lead to this.

Pro tip. Never try to explain anything to that guy. Legit has an iq of under 80.

Yeah, I learned my lesson with it by now.

On the topic of Giddey, I just remembered that the crazy part is because the Bulls stupidly bid against themselves with Patrick Williams last summer, they are trying to learn from their own mistakes with Giddey.

It's going to be impossible to strongarm him into a team friendly deal.

Is suggs at 30 mill bad?

Michael Scotto: San Antonio Spurs star guard De'Aaron Fox has agreed to a four-year, $229 million maximum contract extension, league sources told @*********. The deal doesn’t include a player option nor trade kicker. Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul negotiated the deal. ESPN first to report.

Is suggs at 30 mill bad?

It's a gamble. Because he's still young and they think they have the players to go for conference supremacy right now they've handed out big deals to him and Bane meanwhile Banchero and Wagner are going to be max-level players. If they aren't close to the second apron yet they will be getting there. They had better succeed at a high level with the players that they have and they better do it over the next few years. Getting back to Suggs, I wouldn't hand the player that he has been 30 per but it's a case of him being lucky to be 24 instead of 30. Paid off of potential.

You guys know nothing about me

Giving p-will a contract he doesn't even deserve speaks so much about the bulls' front office incompetence. Giddey should have a decent one instead.
