Breaking News: Tristan Thompson agrees to 5 year $82 million deal

[G0ATbe]

Most stacked team of all time, hands down.

[Meticode]

If we're completely healthy...

Mozgov/Varejao/Kaun
Love/Thompson
LeBron/Jefferson/Jones
Shumpert/J.R.
Irving/Mo/Delly

[RRR3]

Wow. Stupid. The Cavs don't need him anyways, what the **** haha.

[DMAVS41]

Dan Gilbert is such a moron. LBJ has his nuts in a vice grip.

Yea...what an idiot.

He just locked up a 24 year old that hasn't peaked to 5 years that fits perfectly with his team and likely gives them a title or two over that stretch.

oh...and he's making less per year than wes matthews...rofl

this is just a good contract for the Cavs...16 million a year for TT going forward for 5 years is great.

[aj1987]

Holy shit! $16M for a hustle dork? Charles Barkley is crying right now.

[Foster5k]

Let's be honest. The only reason he got his money is because he plays with LeBron James. This guy is as overrated as they come.

[DonDadda59]

This is officially the era of the role player. Dudes are winning Finals MVPs and getting PAID.

Is that Old Man River Walk I see in that reflection?

LeBron has gotten so many scrubs paid

TT 16M a year

Dellavedova 4m a year

Shumpert 10M a year


I swear no one has ever heard of TT, delly, Shump, Love, Irving, but now that they play with LeBron theyre making a combind 80M a year

[Derka]

$16 million per when the new salary cap hits is going to be chump change. Lots of guys of Thompson's caliber are going to be making similar money.

[bigkingsfan]

Yes, these things aren't detectable over the internet because tone of voice is what gives it away.

Because making fun of a multi billionaire giving out 82 million doesn't give it away...

[Foster5k]

This is officially the era of the role player. Dudes are winning Finals MVPs and getting PAID.

In other words, the LeBron era.

[RedBlackAttack]

I can live with this overpay, even if it meant placating Rich Paul's horrendous negotiating technique. At the end of the day, 5/$82m is about what I expected.

I'm glad to have Tristan back in the fold. I'd be happy if I never heard Paul's name again.

F*cking stacked.

[DaOldLion]
