Last summer some people criticized Boston and Portland for extending Rondo and Aldridge for 55m and 65m. Rudy Gay would have taken that kind of money at the time, Memphis ended giving him the max. Rondo would have gotten the max this summer and Aldridge might have too. Horford has a very good shot of being offered the max next summer, Sacramento for example will have room and he makes sense there at PF next to Cousins. If Carmelo get his wish, Al will be together with Tony Parker the best FA on market (given how no one can trust Yao to be healthy).
