    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Coveted free agent Michael Redd agreed Thursday to re-sign with the Milwaukee Bucks, choosing to stay with the only NBA team he's played for over LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.
    "He's going to get a max deal in Milwaukee for $90 million-$96 million, depending on what the cap is, over six years," Redd's agent, Kevin Poston, told the Associated Press early Thursday afternoon. "Michael started his career in Milwaukee and hopes to end it there, too. "It was a tough decision between the Bucks and the Cavaliers, but Michael's heart is in Milwaukee, and he's excited about his future there."
    Redd, who was the top remaining free agent available, met with James and Cavs officials in Cleveland on Wednesday, one day after meeting with the Bucks. </div>

    That's a bit much for Redd, but at least he's staying!

    He's not worth a max deal, but it got complicated when he became pretty much the only elite free agent left on the market. I don't think he deserves that much money, but at the same time I'm glad that the Bucks proved that they're willing to go out and spend the money it takes to bring a contender back to Milwaukee.

    That is a sh*t load of money for Redd... here's to him earning that money by dominating with Bogut!

    That's a kick in the nuts on the Cavs... really it is. Now they have only Larry Hughes to depend on signing with them. Who is not even a shooter...

    That is a lot of money for Michael, but well worth it. He can shoot the lights out and with Bogut coming to town, Milwaukee's future just brightened up a bit more. If Bogut can turn into the player that everyone expects, Michael Redd and Andrew Bogut could become a very, very sick big-small combo.
