Orlando's rumored extension was 4 years 35 million so just under 9 million per.  Seems pretty reasonable to me.  It is not the 5 year 50 million he is probably going to get from Portland, but I still say Orlando didn't exactly low ball him if the rumored amount is accurate.
Yeah, that was fairly reasonable.

I was wrong, I thought the offer would be lower, closer to $30 million, or $37 million over five years. Otis Smith offered a fair bit more money than what he felt Hedo was worth. Magic might have gotten that deal done if they just included a fifth season.

I assume it was an extension to kick in after the year he opted out of.  So it was essentially a 5 year 43 million or so offer.
