But, it isn’t how players (and especially agents) think. If you have to ask why (in the world) someone would lock in $189 million and not risk being the next DeMarcus Cousins, you are thinking WAY too much like a fan and not at all like a player. There is no greater priority for LaVine and Duffy this summer.
I apologize, guess I´m just not as smart as you. You convinced me. Let´s trade Josh Richardson for Thad Young and sign Mike Conley.
One question though: Why do the Bulls feel the need to trade for Josh Richardson to keep Duffy happy, when Lavine´s highest priority is to sign a max extension this summer anyway?
