    This makes my day.

    Good contract too, back loaded. Perfect. If we could get DJ back for ~1-2 mil, I'd be happy as well.

    Now just another stronger backup big, and we're set. (Thanks for nothing, McDyess)

    All NBA contracts are backloaded, but the #s posted by the OP are not permitted by the NBA's Collective Bargaining Agreement. Again the max annual raises that can be put in a contract is 10.5%.

    Year 1 - $3 mil
    Year 2 - $3.315 mil
    Year 3 - $3.663 mil
    Year 4 - $4.048 mil
    Year 5 - $4.473 mil
    -------------------------
    Total - $18.499 mil

    http://members.cox.net/lmcoon/salarycap.htm#Q46

    So the max amount the contract can be if it starts at $3 mil and lasts 5 years is approximately $18.5 mil.

    All NBA contracts are backloaded,
    Correction: most contracts are backloaded. But definitely not all.

    In the entire league there might be 5 contracts that aren't backloaded. 99% of NBA contracts are backloaded.

    uh...have you seen nba salaries or are you just an idiot? he will be making around the average...if not less which is nothing for a solid big man (especially one who blocks as well as he does). half of his salary will be paid by merchandise sales, of which there are a ton (at a recent playoff game there were more people wearing birdman stuff than all other nuggets combined). plus we got 2.25 mill (record amount) for our 2nd rounder which can go towards that. in addition, he only made like 800k last year. all in all a very fair deal. you can easily find MANY nba big men who make more and do less than bird.

    btw: at least spell the guy's name right.

    It's not the money. It's the years. Why was it necessary to give him so many years? Especially a guy who's a little older with a history of extracurricular problems......

    Anderson relies on his athleticism and energy. Giving him a long and huge contract will effect his play in my opinion since he strikes me as a guy that needs to stay focus in order to play well.

    The Nuggets are gonna regret giving "Birdman" that huge contract because he's one drug test away from getting kicked out the NBA.

    And if he fails that drug test and is not allowed to play he doesn't get his money, so how are the Nuggets going to regret this again?

    5 mill is ok, but 5 YEARS is really dumb

    3 yrs 15 or 4 yrs 16 (like Turiaf) would have been ok
