For sure!
But, I NEVER believed it was going to be 3/$90M. I've written that about 11 times. I'll be pretty shocked if he gets that from Miami. Even if it's that number, I bet the third year will be a team option. They're running the same strategy Cuban has been for the past several years, right?
I think that contract float was an attempt by New Orleans to entice him, or maybe to suggest that New Orleans would pay it (by his people) to get Dallas or Miami to pony up.
At no point was I worried Dallas would actually pay that, personally.
