Signed through 2012, with a player option for the 2012-13 season. Not even the team's highest paid player, that guy (Peja) was coming off the bench. Posey is making $6M and averaging 3.3 ppg. These are not real weapons for the NBA's best player to work with.
Watching them play Phoenix right now is straight up embarrassing. Reminds me of the 58 point loss against the Nuggets in the playoffs. No heart. No defense. Look at the NBA elite- they all have a World class player similar in status to Paul, but they also have a SUPPORTING CAST!!1!...
I can't wait for Peja to leave- his defense is a liability, and even when he's "on" his offense barely makes up for it. We need a defender- and a 20 ppg sniper to take the scoring pressure off Paul, and let him get back to distributing (rather than carrying the weight of NOLA on his shoulders). Peja and Posey off the books frees up $20M+ to accomplish this.

Life is just blah, blah, blah
You hope for blah
And sometimes you find it, but mostly it's blah
And waiting for blah
And hoping you were right about the blahs you made
And then, just when you think you've got the whole blah'd damn thing figured out
And you're surrounded by the ones you blah
Death shows up... anddd blah, blah, blah.
