Charlotte re-signs Tyrus Thomas for 5-years/$40M

[Griffin]

The Bobcats and Tyrus Thomas have agreed on a five-year, $40 million contract, a league source told Y! Sports.

The Nets were seriously engaged with Thomas, but were hesitant that the Bobcats would match their offer on the restricted free agent.

That's a lot of money for a player who hasn't really lived up to his potential.

Dude's a headcase. What the hell is Charlotte thinking?

Wow. I hope the next CBA figures out a way to save owners from themselves. Frye's deal looks better and better to me.

Tyrus Thomas for 8million per vs. Frye's deal for 6million per... Frye's is much, much better.
