Now I know Amare is damn good but damn no one in their right mind should give him this contract. Now Minnesota will probably deal him to someone for way under market value due to the size of his contract and his desire to rebuild again (he's trying so hard not to but ultimately he will) and the team that gets Amare will have some youth still yet to cash in then boom they hit the hard cap when they max them. Then Amare will be 34-36 suck and be making 66% of the cap crippling a franchise. All in all contracts like these shouldn't be given out. Maybe just maybe we limit the max contract offer to 25% of the cap opposed to the vets starting salary being anywhere from 30-35% of soft cap. Then we wouldn't be having these guys make 30 mil a year at whatever age. Amare Stoudemire PF 29 $15,955,555 $17,949,999 $20,193,749 $22,717,968 $25,557,714 $27,922,221 $29,916,666 $160,213,872 Wolves didn't have to max Amare...They could have gave him a contract still more then any other team...You just have to know how contracts work..

Every GM makes the mistake of maxing a vet superstar, when they don't have to.

I know this and so do other GMs but how many times do we see contracts like this happen? Its detrimental to the league because it hinders trading which ceases activity.
