I do not understand this narrative. Tre is not ripping off RFAs. He’s negotiating an RFA contract, which is far different than UFA. All good GMs do it. In both negotiations both sides are trying to get the best deal. It’s not like if Tre signed Johnny at 7.5m back in 2016 Johnny would be telling Gross to take it easy in the negotiations.
