Is Holmgren Worth $250 million over 5 years?

NBA salaries are beyond comprehension for me at this point. Good for the players but the amounts are crazy.

Dam.. a fully guaranteed contract! Lucky for him. Sounds like he has a good agent.

 

[KingKolzig]

Yes cause hes 100% basketball

Hell no. Just like when Mike Conley got the first 30 million dollar deal during his resigning. It looked bad then it looks worse now. No way Chet is reliable enough physically nor big game play wise to earn such a deal. If he is their 3rd best player now that is good in the “new” NBA, but 10 years ago this would look stupid.

 

[jjgold]

yes if trying to build dynasty

Guy is a #2 pick for a reason. Goofy ugly nerd who lives and dies basketball. Id pay him over a gangstah for sure

I like Holmgren and I think for the most part he's worth paying but there will always be questions about his ability to stay healthy. The man has missed an entire season already and just this last year he missed a good chunk of the season so I wonder about his durability especially because of his body type. Still though I'd lock him up because he's still a big part of why the Thunder were so good.

 

[betbrotha]

Ain’t none of them worth that money but he is more than some of them other nba players.

 

[notimetocap]

Athletes are overpaid but especially nba players.

the health is my point along with his ceiling as a player. he def is a big part of their "big 3". but $50 million is crazy.

I think of 3 things when I read this massive contract.

Injury prone
