Dude: I was born in Winter Park (on the old Navy base). 6-years time served at Publix. I graduated UCF.
But I do question you here: You should KNOW that yankees are from the North. That you would use that word, Are you the transplant (New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, etc.)?Changing "should" to "will" changes the question as well on an rudimentary level. We both know that players do get paid maxes even if we do not actually totally believe they are worth it. This is why I asked to explain reasoning because there different possible interpretations and reasoning for each.
If you think hard enough you could probably imagine both questions to mean the same thing in this context but thats probably asking a bit much.
And that is my point. The question actually makes more sense as an expectations question over a desire question. Asking if F-Wagner "should" make 30M+ per season is a ridiculous question. The only Magic employee that should make that kind of money is Stuff.
You are probably too young to remember that "should" lost Shaq. I am old enough to know, DON'T ask that question.

When I say this, I mean this moreso towards Realgm as a whole, not specifically you. I'll be honest I wish there was more thoughtful, reasoned discussion on here than alot of this keyboard posturing we see instead.
If you look up the definition of Yankee it broadly means people living in the US, not just the north. So yea, im right when it comes to that.

How about, I'll ask what i want save a fellow rebel's Osen PTSD.
, additionally, that poll probably accounts for at most 2% of the reason Shaq left, with most of it being the Magic lowballing him and 
Teams offer to "lock a guy up" with guaranteed money for years in exchange for paying a bit less. Players want the security of avoiding FA and having the guaranteed deal...they don't even have to discuss it this year. Franz' agency may recognize that he's better than he played this year and even suggest talking next summer (when he'll still be under team control as a RFA). There's just no reason to rush to max a guy a year early without some team benefit. There could be an injury or a lack of improvement or any other kind of issue. I think they'll sign him and I think he'll be worth a max in the next couple of years, but, in return for the early extension, he'll get paid a bit less than max - but still a boatload of money. Maybe his next contract will be a max-at that point, it will be a LOT more, based on years in the league.
