Birdman Still Flying In Denver

[Pugz]

The Nuggets and forward Chris Andersen have agreed to a five-year deal that could be worth as much as $26 million, according to the player's manager.

"We're ecstatic to stay in the community," manager Mark Bryant said.

Andersen will make $3.7 million next season in the backloaded and incentive-based contract. He had a number of suitors, but said all along that he wanted to remain in Denver.

We knew he would, but I wonder what other moves Denver will make. All the elites are making moves, but Denver has yet to do anything "big".

They don't have much they can trade to get something big. They should be fine. They'll get to go through a training camp with Billups, even though he was their most of the year, that should help some.

Good deal I guess. I mean, Chris a nice part of the team but I think 5 years is too much, he is already 31. Maybe 3 would of been good.

Seems a little long especially since it's heavily back loaded. We'll see though.

 

[yezzir]

as long as he stays away from trouble and gives the same amount of effort, its a good deal.

but i think this is probably gonna blow up in their faces. i doubt he'll repeat what he did last season for the next 5 years. i guess its not really that much money anyways though.

Deal is a bit long, but go Birdman!
