"I'd like to have them both back," Cavaliers general manager Danny Ferry said Wednesday in Independence, where the team held the grand opening for its new practice facility, the Cleveland Clinic Courts. "I'd like to have them both back for more than a year. Commenting on it more than that is not beneficial to the negotiating process." </p> </p> "We still have a couple weeks (before camp)," Ferry said. "We're working through negotiations with Sasha and Andy. ... We'd like both guys back. Other than that, we're exploring the free-agent market and the trade market (in an attempt to acquire other players)." -- Medina Gazette </p></div></div>
This was expected, to be honest. Why would they immediately sign a deal rather than try to court any interested teams. If they are unable to get other teams to give them a huge offer sheet, then I expect them tosign one year deals and become unrestricted free agents next summer.
