That was the discussion I was more interested in at the time of it happening. Yes, I still think it is an overpay, but that wasn’t the biggest issue with the transaction in my view.
DP was already overpaid before the extension, and the extension of course gave him raises. I think that what he brings to the court is worth about $5 mil a year, perhaps $6 at a reach. Is all of his community/locker room/citizen stuff worth another $5 mil a year? Not to me it isn't.
