Difference is the Kings got to see Gabby perform in the playoffs and how good a fit he was with the team. They knew what they were getting and felt comfortable offering 7 years.
Teams looking to sign Cammi don't have the same luxury (test drive) the Kings had and will have no clue as how Cammi might fit with thier team. My point is will other GM's be willing to risk 7 years on Cammi? I doubt it and my guess offers would be in the max of 5 years or maybe less.
