GTJ’s deal is more so the Bucks can get bird rights on him so they can give him the $10-15m per year he wants in the future. KPJ is the same way.
Sixers have the bird rights on Grimes and they just don’t want to pay him.
Well, you can’t get GTJ at the minimum cause we got him. lol
Isnt Grimes a better playmaker, defender while Gtj is a better shooter?
It’s a tough time to be a restricted free agent. I think Grimes may be better overall than GTJ, but I’m not sure he’s an extra 17 million better
Either way GTJ is looking like a better and better signing every day lol
Gary is a market Shaker. Grimes>GTJ. Although one could argue Grimes should be paid extra to have to play for 76ers bcuz..well u know
I haven’t followed Grimes that closely but I knew he put up some numbers for Philadelphia. He put up 21.9 ppg, 5 2 rpg, 4.5 apg, 2.9 Tpg, 1.5 spg with 47/37/75 shooting splits in 28 games. Really nice numbers. However, the Sixers went 4-24 in those games. If you look at him before Philly, when playing for winning teams, he has similar shooting splits. His Dallas numbers are probably closer to what Philly would get with Maxey, McClain, and Edgecombe healthy – 23 mpg, 10 ppg, 4 rpg, 2 apg.
I think 12-15M for three years would be good like the majority of the poll respondents in the Athletic article(quotes from it linked below)is fair.
Because you can’t? He only signed that to get bird rights and sign for more next season…
I don’t know what this quote would even mean, GTJ isn’t actually minimum level player lol, He’s a 10-15 Guy and Grimes is probably a better overall player
