Typical sequence for a star player's negotiatons:

30 year old player making $23,000,000 per year demands $43,000,000 for 7 years.

You counter with an offer of $35,000,000 for 6 years.

Instead of shooting for somewhere between his offer and yours, player returns with a demand for $46,000,000 for 7 years.

This is NOT how negotiations work!

When will you finally fix this crap? It's been going on for years now.

Your not haggling for a dresser at a local flea market where he'll meet you half way. Stay reasonably close to his asking price and it works better.
