Sharpe July 2025 contract extension

[SharpesTriumph]

WHY ? Would you give a HUGE extension to someone who has not proven he can do on a game by game by game basis AKA being consistent . Now if he can show marked improvement by the AS game then go for by all means give him a deal but right now it's not worth MAYBE hampering this team with another bad contract.

If he really proves it then next summer your looking at a max deal which is closer to $200 million+

Odds are he shows promise next season along with some question marks and your probably still paying more for potential than production. That's just how it is with most rookie extension or young restricted free agents. They get paid on what teams hope they will do - not what they have done.

If I was running the Blazers I'd do an extension if its not too high... but if I don't see a good discount then yeah I'm waiting until next summer.

Would you do it at the expense of Tamara ? Scoot ?

Also good chance they will not give any extensions for players until the team is sold NOT finalized just sold unless the deal is like 3 yr for maybe max of 25m a year but anymore and I fear it would be a mistake.

Blazers don't have to choose, the luxury tax is over 200 million in those seasons.

Camara is capped at 89 million over 4 years which is a great deal.

Actually not agreeing to an extension is about the only way the Blazers could risk losing them. If Sharpe proves he is worth that 200 million and Scoot had a great season it might become much harder to pay all 3.

Paying Sharpe 100-140 something million today makes that situation about impossible. But the downside is maybe Sharpe has a disappointing year and we're stuck with Sharpe on a bad overpaid deal.

I would give Camara an extension before Sharpe -- HANDS down

Camara is simple because its a much smaller max so no negotiations needed.

I'm estimating this will be agreed to at 5 years 170 million.

Cronin has never been able to negotiate a good value contract and I expect this will be the same.
