I find it interesting (odd?) that around the 1:00 mark he says he's happy to be able to lock in two more years.

Interesting/odd how? That he mentions two more years instead of three? Last/4th year of deal is player option.

I think he said "into..."

Ah, I didn't know about the player option. Thanks.

I think we can go out on a limb already and say that he will be picking up that option lol.

My guess...

Next year (24-25 season) it's all good times again with him. He'll be worth his money.

In 25-26 season, mostly good, we start to wonder if he's worth the deal.

In 26-27 season, he's still fine because he's a good teammate but decline creeps in and we can all tell he's not worth his deal.

Before the 27-28 season we trade him as expiring salary contract filler with pick(s) attached for him to land an upgrade, similar to how we used Brogdon's contract as a filler piece in the trade to get Jrue here in the first place.

Hopefully Horford lets him in on the secret to long productive career.

Jrue is such a good fundamental player. I think he can be effective through the length of this contract…though might be overpaid near the end.
