Utterly rediculous. 

Batum is a role player on steroids - he's worth $15m at the most, even in this salary climate. 

Silly season has well and truly begun.  To all those who were saying we can maybe re-sign Sully for less then $10M - please step forward and witness.

LOL I can't wait to see how much Sully and Turner will get. I bet Zeller won't be too cheap either.

Based on current deals happening I expect Turner to get an offer in the $10m - $14m a year range (around what Clarkson got), with Sully pulling in something in the $15m - $17m range (about ballpark with Mozgov).

I've long said $15m is good value for Sully. Perhaps not with us anymore but certainly with someone. I'd still take him and the $10m in cap space over Horford...

That is a lot of money. I'd feel better about it if they kept it to 4 years instead of 5.
