    Except we wouldn't have AR any longer next year LOL. He's not coming off the bench this year. Just give him Max back. Thompson can do the bench thing. ;)

    he's not signing a minimum contract regardless. not just because he wouldn't do it, but because it would be an awful look for a guy who is still a top 10-15 player to be taking that big of a pay cut. it would set a bad precedent and would completely go against everything the player's union stands for

    I actually don't think it would matter much, all people do after a couple of years is count the rings on his finger. How can you give someone in their 40's grief for winning a ring with other guys?? It would end out being absurd. If he wins, he will also win that argument. I doubt this happens but of course our FO better be thinking about this.
