<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><span id="default"><span id="CCT_Article">The status of restricted free-agent Michael Pietrus remains up in the air, less than a week before training camp. Pietrus' agents, Bill McCandless and Happy Walters, said several teams are calling them and the Warriors to discuss the fourth-year forward, but no deal has been struck at this point. If Pietrus does not sign the Warriors' one-year, $3.47 million qualifying offer by Oct. 1, the deal expires and the team retains its right of first refusal.</div></span></span></p> <span id="default"><span id="CCT_Article">Source: Contra Costa Times</span></span></p>
I am really suprised he has no offers yet.</p> I knew he wasn't going to get a full MLE offer but nothing? wow</p>
Well, the guy hasn't really improved all that much as a guard... There's always the fear he can't improve that much because his basketball sense and mental abilities aren't that high. He's got good natural ability as an athlete, but I think he is not consistent because of his mental ability.</p>
Well, at this point, any sensible person will sign a qualifying offer from us, and I think Pietrus will do so before 10/1...</p>
I kept hearing that Toronto wanted him. What happened there? I know they signed Kapono, but it isn't like you think to yourself, "we need a wing, like a Pietrus or Kapono type." They're almost completely dissimilar.</p>
