Of course he wanted to be here. He just got 19.2 mil dollars in guaranteed money instead having to play on a 1.2 mil contract.
Just because these guys sign early deals that isn't a great indication that they wanted to be here more than anywhere else.
Now if he hits free agency and there's competing offers then that tells you something. This tells me nothing, other than that he just got paid big time.
