I can’t believe how bad that contract is. And also another under talked about horrible contract is the Desmond Bane one.

But yeah FVV undersized, inefficient, defensively he’s ok, but WOW. 43,000,000 aav

I wouldn’t even pay Jrue holiday that much money per year

I'm pretty sure Tobias Harris will have the highest earned career salary of anyone to never make an all star team.

So there's that.

monster contract they used for his magnum dong

I was waiting for this post 🤣🤣

As a raps fan... lmao 🤣Thanks rockets 😁👍

[–] ApoliticalAth3ist@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He’s being paid that much to be a mentor essentially

[–] needaburnerbaby@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bane is 100% gonna prove he’s worth his contract. Fred on the other hand….

I like FVV more than most Raptor fans who blamed him for all the woes but he is no where near worth what he was asking and was glad to see him go.

Rockford’s finest.

the 3rd year is a club option so you guys are gonna trade him this summer as an expiring contract

[–] herbiedaherbie@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Rockets had all that cap space to burn and not enough free agents willing to come to Houston to spend it on.

Overpay? Sure, but it gave Udoka the PG he wanted to set the tone and culture he wanted (unlike with signing Harden).

And it’s only 2 yrs, $83 million. Third year is a team option.

[–] brownmagician@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He has a great agent.

[–] lionsgatewatcher@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Called it. We should have taken Dennis Schroder.

And please for the love of this franchise. MOVE ON FROM JALEN GREEN.

[–] SkatzFanOff@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

More like Fred VanFleeced, amirite folks???

[–] marketinequality@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How the hell did you throw Bane into this. Bane is definitely worth his contract.

[–] WhiiteDreeam@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Desmond Bane‘s contract isn’t horrible bro

[–] philly2540@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

If you want to make a comparison use Tobias Harris with the Sixers. Nice player, good to have on your team, if he made $18 million you’d love him. $40 million? What the Fuck????? So a lot of people here hate him.

[–] spicyfartz4yaman@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lot of guys making a lot of money that are worse than vanfleet.

[–] OneHitPunchMan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

FFV is one of the most overrated players in the league

He bet on himself

[–] Klaytheist@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

it's obviously a massive overpay but it's also short. Rockets wanted a veteran pg to help guide the young players so they took a short term hit while their young guys are on rookie deals. His deal will expire once Green/Sengun/Jabari/etc are up for extensions. They have to use the salary cap on someone.

[–] ThicccRPMs@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He needs to have another kid.

[–] savethearthdontbirth@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Good for him! Get that money champ!

[–] Hello85858585@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

OP no offense but you're a basketball idiot. The money paid is because we need a guy to help establish a culture for the young prospects. Its not for actual on court production. Nobody thinks he's a superstar. The fact that you bring up Westbrook and his $4mil contract tells me everything i need to know about your opinions.

[–] JonorLondo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bane is a hooper bro... I got no problem with his contract.

[–] CarrotAwesome@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Everyone is saying Bane worth it.

What changed in 3 months?

[–] _mrfluid_@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lost his confidence and speed the last two years, enjoy him and Brooks. Rockets have the worst front office it’s hilarious

[–] WazuufTheKrusher@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bane is in his 4th year and is one of the best shooters in the entire league who played at an all star level with a broken toe all year. Stfu.

Money for jam
