New Jersey can expect competition from both the Wizards and Cavaliers. Blatche, a second round pick in 2005, averaged 4.5 ppg and 3.6 ppg in backup roles for Washington.</div>

    I don't know about this. I'd still rather have Zach Randolph.

    Wizards will match, if it's 5 years, two years from now his contract will be a bargain. The guy has skills, he's very versatile and could be quite good.

    I saw that they were going to offer somewhere around 4 million for the first year, isn't that a lot for a player that's unproven. With the fact that it's probably going to raise over the next 4 years.

    Forget him, the Wizards aren't going to let this pot of potential leave.

    he hasn't gotten much time, hes gunna be 22 when the season starts so if he lives up to the potential you get a real nice bargain cause the contracts only going to be about 6 million in three years, when he got his minutes he averged 8 points and 8 boards, it was only over six games but it shows the potential
