What is Rudy's actual worth?

Jimmy Butler is on a 4-year / $140M deal. Give Gobert 4 years / $145M and call it a day.

If he demands a 5th year, give him 5 years / $165M and load the contract up with incentives.

Why does Rudy deserve more than Jimmy Butler?

Because the Jazz are the team that drafted Rudy and they have the ability to pay him more. Butler got the max that he's eligible to receive. Rudy's max is the super-max. Although the Jazz shouldn't give Rudy the super-max, they can give him a nod and exceed the max.

I'd probably lean the Conley one of these two.

DM/Royce/Joe/Bojan/Rudy is my favorite though.

How about Gobert is better, idiots.
 
What NBA team is paying more summer 2021?

Teams find a way to move folks and pay for players they really want. Plenty of teams would pay more than that for Rudy. I hope we get him for as little as possible and I am sure that is why the negotiations are ongoing. I am sure we will pay as little as we can and still keep him. I hope it is on the low end but I am not optimistic. The thought that we will bid against ourselves is absurd. I am very confident in saying that has never been true.
 
Gobert is making $27M this season.
...which makes him slightly overpaid though it is well within the acceptable range(supermax isn't). But as a result the jazz prioritizes cutting salaries to duck the tax over actually competing for a chip simply because they have several players currently on overpriced contracts.
 
I think a fair negotiation range would be something in the range of 5/$140M and 5/$160M...but with UTA's track record on contract negotiations, I'd expect that the negotiation is super max or GTFO from Rudy's side. Guess we'll see who blinks.
 
What do we reckon Rudy's real market value is? Capella makes ten mil give or take less than Rudy and isnt as good a player but is a fair comparison. What looks like a fair contract to you guys? 5 years at the same numbers front loaded?

He's worth a lot bruh. We're trash without him.
 
Think it’s quite clear that Hayward’s been vastly overpaid ... not that I really care but I wouldn’t have given him more than 20 mil per.
Rudy should get around the 4/125 mark.
35 per
32.5 per
30 per
27.5 per

Oh and for you fools out there, AD is far superior to Rudy unfortunately.
If Lakers wanted to trade, I’d do it in a blink of an eye.

still love Rudy though !!!

There's what, 40 max players in the league at any given time? Rudy is a top 15ish player in the league. The market isn't great for centers, but it is very wishful thinking to expect him to get significantly less than a maximum deal.
