Either Im mistaken.
I worded something wrong.
Or youre mistaken.
Genuinely confused about your comment.
Is the post in response to me saying that I dont think he Mavs could have satisfied what Brunson saw in New York even if we offered Max or near Max? If so...I think Jalen probably takes it. What were Mavs able to offer? 32-33M? I forget if the number could have been inflated if Designated. Again...I forget the absolute most Mavs could over before and after Designating if the numbers differed.
I think he maybe takes the 24M difference to be a Mav. But...he seems very confident, very skilled...taking a discount, whether it was the most New York could offer or an actual discount at 26M, might have been worth it to play with family, be close to family/friends and be the #1 on a team in a large market.
I dont know the 60/70M figure youre talking about.
