1.
Shaun Livingston 2yrs/$7mil(3rd yr not guaranteed)

2.

Jordan Farmar 3yrs/$12mil(all guaranteed)

3.

Chris Duhon 4yrs/$15mil(all guaranteed)

4.

Luke Ridnour 4yrs/$16mil(all guaranteed)

5.

Steve Blake 4yrs/$18mil(all guaranteed)

6.

Randy Foye 2yrs/$9mil(all guaranteed)

7.

Kyle Lowry 3yrs/$18mil(4rth yr not guaranteed)

8.

Raymond Felton 2yrs/$16mil(3rd yr not guaranteed)


To my knowledge this is how the deals have shaken down thus far and I believe the guarantee or non guarantee on deals is pretty close.

I believe we got Felton for two years, $16M with the third year as an option.

still, looking at the other contracts marginal dudes are getting, I think we got a steal in Felton - an established two-way player.

Well we're saying the same thing just differently. You can say he got a 3yr deal totaling $16mil all money guaranteed but not necessarily the yrs as in the 3rd year. I could have put it the way you said it though.

Livingston that cheap as the backup PG and SG would have been AWESOME, especially at that price.

Am I the only one here who realizes that Steve Blake isn't that good? Did we set the bar 2 years ago for overpaying back up point guards?

On the other hand, $2.3 million per for Livingston isn't a bad deal. I wish we could've signed him.

It's actually $3.5mil. 2yrs is guaranteed at $7mil... 3rd year not. Sorry for confusing. I decided to edit reflecting changes

Can't shoot anywhere near the lane, isn't really a penetrator, has trouble finishing in traffic. He's a slightly better version of Duhon, a good back up is all I'm saying. But he got overpaid.

por has been trying to replace him for years and hasnt really been able to do so (maybe miller will finally do so, or mills). for what la wants him to do, he may be the right price...

You know with what is left--I would seriously consider Nate Robinson for a 1 year 3mm $ contract with a team option to play a back up PG. he knows the system--he is probably the most talented guy left--he can shoot the three, he played well in the playoffs for the Celtics and gained a great deal of experience--I mean is there a better PG out there for 3mm?
