Jimmy Butler just agreed to a massive extension with the Miami Heat, per @ShamsCharania

2022-23 | $40.5M | 33 years old

2023-24 | $43.8M | 34 years old

2024-25 | $47.0M | 35 years old

2025-26 | $50.3M | 36 years old

Yikes. I like Butler, but they're going to be paying $50M to a guy whose going to be riddled with injuries at that point in his career given how much tread was run off him by Thibs.

The Paul contract may rival this in craziness, though.

It’s amazing how many poor choices the Cavs make.

They just paid a centre who can’t shoot, can’t defend on the perimeter nor has any post moves 20 million a year, for 5 years… in the same off-season that Ibaka just opted in for his 9 million player option.

Allen - can’t shoot
Mobley - can’t shoot
Okoro - can’t shoot
Sexton - can’t shoot

well we kind of knew that this one might be quiet for us.  still painful seeing good players getting signed who could have helped us.
but it seems like the FO doesn't want to get better this year.  lets push all our cards in on Beal...smh.
