    I think a short cheap deal would not be signed by him. And if it was it would be matched. So at what number will he be attractive to us and not the Suns? FRA are a pain in the ass because you have to over pay to keep their team from matching.

    I like Robin Lopez.

    When he got >20 min. his first few years he was solid, like a young Przybilla. He fell off the radar lately because of inconsistent playing time, unable to find a groove in PHX.

    The plan now is to get a stop-gap at center. Kaman makes the most sense but he wants too big of a deal, and four years.

    But I agree, this off-season is turning out to be underwhelming with our FA moves/plans.

    Somehow when I hear "like a young Przybilla" it brings to mind the cover of a romance novel, with a bare-chested Joel holding a buxom woman wearing tattered clothing.

    But maybe that's just me.

    Suns C Robin Lopez has been contacted by #Blazers during this moratorium, Lopez tells CSNNW. So far, that's the extent. Lopez, 7-1 is a RFA.

    Robin Lopez is 7-1? I thought he was about 6-10.

    We need two more bigs. Freeland can play PF or C. So I would think not. Especially since I bet Phoenix matches anything we would offer.

    I hope they can get Lopez on a one year deal. Maybe a 3 year offersheet but with last two years unguaranteed. Heck even overpay him $4million per or something just don't hurt our flexibility next offseason.

    Sixers acquire Wright from Warriors for draft pick http://bit.ly/PO4U0L #SixersTalk

    Most likely a 2nd, since they gave a future first to Miami.
    I would have jumpe don that with our space, if we were going to not match Batum.
