Instead you have conditions that give Vegas the power to screw the deal to their benefit in every which way they want. How does Conroy not get compensated for relinquishing that much control.


Can't imagine how bad the Tampa or Florida offers were.

To me if Conroy is valuing anything for him more than he already is, he's wrong. He's 26 and hasn't broken out yet. You may like his skills but what's his ceiling? Anyway, back to the deal, I'm actually happy it's a future 1st rounder and not this years, but the conditions allowing Vegas to call the shots is just dumb. This is clearly teams playing hardball. I thought Conroy had incredible poise with the Rutherford deal, but maybe it was actually Rutherford treating him fairly. These other guys seem to want to bend him over.
