People at the office here are arguing over how much Ben Gordon will get as a free agent?

Thoughts?

Over ten million a year?

I say he's going to get a contract worth $11 million dollars a year.

Great player and all, but since this is the smack talk forum I'll say he'll get more than he's worth.

The way the league works, I think someone will step up and throw more money at him then he's worth. I think he'll end up with a deal in line with Joe Johnson in Atlanta and get between $12-$15 million. Do I think he's worth that much? Not really, but I think the Bulls will see him as a guy they can build around much like J.J. with the Hawks.

I think he's worth $10-$12 million tops personally. He's very good, but I'm not convinced he's going to be a franchise player yet.

BG can score so I think someone will pay him. Not convinced the Bulls will, but I think someone will despite the fact, he does not defend and/or pass.

I wouldn't want my team paying him more than 8-9 million per year. But some team will give him over 10 mil.

Sub Barbosa for BG...

Same situation. He got his, Ben Gordon will definitely get his.
