@Rockets Why are your team giving insane money to Dildo Bricks and Fred Flat Feet?
Into the new season we had roughly a 50 mil cap space to get to minimum salary cap. Basically we've been keeping tabs on free agents since mid last season. We need veterans to surround with our young prospects. A distributor PG and a rim-protector big man were our priorities after the draft.
But the team had an abysmal stretch of 20-62, 17-55 and 22-60 in the last three seasons, not so many top agents wanted to come lul. We actually didn't have much choice and we had to overpay. Have to say that Paul Rich did a great job for getting VanVleet such a massive contract.
As for Dildo Bricks, it came as a bit of a shock because earlier in the FA market we almost snagged Brook Lopez who had agreed to our deal. But at last he decided to re-sign with the Bucks. So we just spent that money on Dildo Bricks.
Agree that's an insane amount of money given to two players who are both just above average. But the third year of VanVleet's contract is a team option. Dildo Bricks' contract is fully guaranteed but descends annually. By this we are trying to maintain the cap flexibility starting from the 25-26 season for the possible extensions of our young cores.
