There's no way you can let him walk after that and someone else would have given him stupid money. He held ALL of the leverage and he cashed in huge.
Or you’re smart, hold out, and give him a lot of money, but not a stupid amount of money because no other team would throw the kind of money they did at him because of one postseason run, especially when doing so crippled your franchise in terms of being able to make other moves.
