Burks 4 year $42 million extension!

[Saint Cy of JFC]

How about Varejao(sp?) 3 years $30 M? That makes this Burks deal look like the steal of the century by comparison.

You never watch basketball? Varejao is very very good, just very injury prone.

That's a big part of it for me - I wouldn't want a contract like that for a guy who historically is always hurt on a team that absolutely needs the value out of every dollar it spends.

Yeah, I'm sure the Cavs just want to make sure he doesn't leave during the Lebron era. Don't want to be stuck without a center next year.

Nice to see that Gordon is working with the guys to improve their game.

He is also very not young.

A 32 year old injury prone dude.

Also, your definition of very, very, good might be a little different than mine. AV has been just a part time starter, a guy who you may or may not even play down the stretch of close games. My definition of very, very, good would be at least a top 3-5 player on his team full time. But hey, we don't post on these damn message boards so we can agree on ****. To each his own.
