Hornets Signing LaMelo Ball to Max Extension

[Shocker]

[WOW!!]

Miller getting Miles and PJ back was a signal to Lamelo that this is his team.. So he could do nothing but sign to a team showing him they are committed to building around him..

I tried to tell people Melo is not leaving Charlotte anytime soon. This is his 1st big contract. No way was he turning that down.

He’s trying to get the supermax next he’s not going anywhere

This is the super max, if he makes the All NBA team next year its a supermax, if not its just a regular max contract for around $200M

That's crazy. Hornets are the best at handing out ridiculous contracts and crippling themselves

As a rule that’s been true but that’s not exactly how NBA max contracts work. It was basically pay him this or lose him. We did the right thing.

As stated, it’s basically pay it to him or let him walk. I’m brought he’s overrated, but he’s still the most talented player currently on the team and very young. Would rather overpay him then let him walk for nothing.

Hahahahahaha OMG what a terrible opinion…

[PNW_PantherMan]

I think he’s worth the risk for our team.  How often do we get a player as talented as Lamelo?  Might as well lock him up and see where we can go.

How many players under 25 averaging 23 8 and 6?

Lol Melo is absolutely worth this. Its unreal that people would have been cool with letting him walk

Mr. Negativity strikes again!

 

What are we supposed to let our young franchise player leave?

 

Melo is the best pick this franchise has made since Alonzo Mourning and Larry Johnson. Can we at least keep our good picks or do we let him walk like Mourning/Johnson?

You for real? You need to look at what these players are getting now. This was expected and the right move. The big concern was he would leave for a larger market.
