I thought about this more, and there are 2 sides to the coin
1. Tony Parker is a great player, but not quite a max player. We would do the 5 yr 75 mil thing here
2. Tony Parker is a future all star that can lead us to championships after Duncan retires. We do a max contract here.
Of those 2 options, I would chose the 2nd. If Tony steps up, and leads us to a championship we have a future. If Tony doesn't, we still need to find that guy. . . . and they are hard to find. Tony deserves 5 yrs, 75 mil based on past performance. I hope he earns a max for his performance this year.
