Way too much... He only played a qrt of one season.

The 76ers are taking a big gamble with that signing.

Not sure why they did it now, but would rather spend that kind of money on him than a guy like Wiggins. At least he actually has a chance to be a superstar and has a massive impact when on the floor.

I wish I knew a little more about how the designated rookie max vs. the regular ol' max (and the supermax) worked.

Because I fail to see how guaranteeing Embiid $30 million/yr now is smarter than making him wait for a year to see if he can put up any kind of track record of reliability. Unless the max he'd have been eligible for after this season was potentially much larger, the risk wouldn't seem to justify the reward.

Yeah I find the whole NBA CBA or whatever you want to call it extremely confusing for my small brain.

But according to ESPN he got the super max. But I agree with you I would have waited if possible.

Quote:
The designated exception -- termed "the super-max" -- allows Embiid to earn a higher percentage of the salary cap -- and potentially millions of dollars more -- if he meets criteria, including, making All-NBA teams or the NBA's Most Valuable Player. If Embiid meets the super-max criteria, he could earn an as much as $178 million on the contract, league sources said.

Based on the details of what sources are describing as a complex contract structure, the 76ers would have to waive Embiid for him not to reach the full value of his $148 million extension.

The deal represents the Sixers' commitment to Embiid's talent, given that he's been healthy enough to play in only 31 regular-season games since Philadelphia selected him with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2014 NBA draft.
Embiid, 23, has become among the NBA's most talented and popular young players, and the extension solidifies him as a cornerstone of the franchise's future.

The deal will include some salary-cap protection for the 76ers should Embiid suffer injury that causes him to miss significant playing time, league sources said.

I think they were scared he'd leave in fee agency that's why they did it now

He would have been a restricted FA after this season so he wasn't going anywhere

Welp... That was the only excuse I had. This deal truly makes no sense.

I saw Embiid, Wiggins and Tarik Black at the Oak Park Mall food court one time and I mentioned to my friend that there is 250M future earnings right there.

I was extremely wrong. Andrew Wiggins signed a 25M rookie contract, and is thought to be very near a 5-year 150M contract along with Embiid's 150M contract. The dudes are only 22 years old. Along with Black who has made 7.5M, these guys gonna make a billion dollars between them I bet.

If he misses more than 20 games this season I'd fire everyone in the FO including interns. This has the making to be the worst deal in NBA history.

Jesus tapdancing Christ.

There appears to be absolutely no upside to this deal.

Sixers can pull out of the deal if embiid misses more than 25 games due to injury.
