However I think he will exorcise his option for just over 21mil and wait to deal with his contract the following season to see what direction the team will go in. I hope he doesnt and realizes that by accepting a modest paycut and take a contract of 15 milish and leaves a little money for the team to sign its own players (ie rondo) or free agents keeping the team in the title hunt for atleast the next few years Paul is unselfish and loyal.

In the same light we expect the same in return from him. I believe a 3 year deal worth 38 mil is realistic, especially in light of what has transpired this year with regards to the FA market. Because of the championship, I would gladly take competitive Celtic basketball for a few years with a moderate chance of winning it all. If that meant keeping PP and to a larger extent the big 3 together to go out together. It is not not often we as fans get to show our appreciation to players in the twilight of their career. Unless PP goes all Favre on us...eeeewwww. I think the key is that we want the franchise to treat the franchise player with class and dignity.
