The Goods Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 The Raptors have officially introduced Jarrett Jack after giving the restricted free-agent a four-year, $20 million contract. Indiana opted not to match the offer sheet that Toronto signed Jack to on July 13, which paved the way for Jack to become the Raptors' latest addition. "After having a breakout season last year for Indiana, we are very pleased to have Jarrett Jack join the Toronto Raptors organization," general manager Bryan Colangelo said in a statement. "Jarrett's size and strength, coupled with his playmaking instincts and ability to defend both guard positions make him a perfect addition to our roster." http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/60710/20090721/raptors_officially_introduce_jack/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Feelgood Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Good for Jarret Jack. I think he'll be a perfect fit in Toronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Does anybody know if they have released the contract details yet? I know that it is 4yrs/$20M but I was wondering if anybody knows if the contract is front loaded, back loaded or just strictly $5M straight across the 4 years.

Check my Stats Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Back loaded would make most sense seeing as we'd still have a portion of our MLE left to use. If we managed to somehow bring in Kleiza and Rasho to round out this off-season, that would be perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreusito Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Toronto is really turning things around. Hopefully they finally get to be Top 5 in the East, although the coach will have to do a terrific job for it because it's a new and still pretty young group of players. It's going to be interesting to see where they are at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
