I think Hardaway is a little underrated, defensively, as you well know. 

I don't WANT him to make more money, but it's silly to see what he got for THIS deal, see that he has IMPROVED since then, and that shooting is even MORE valuable now, and conclude that he's on his way to a big pay cut. I put the over/under at $18 mil, and I wouldn't be shocked at 3/$60 mil. Anything less than that is a good deal, imo.

His last deal was a paid for potential - bribe him away as a RFA - deal. In NY he didn't live up to his contract.
You could argue he has or was even better in Dallas.

I think he will get about the same or more.

I'd bet on about 70-80 Mio /4 years with a player option.
