    So we're back to "I'm gonna do it ... no I mean it this time ... for really reals, I'm not bluffing ..."

    Hilarious.

    Re: Nic 4 years, 46.5 Million

    Crazy thing is that doesn't even factor in the $5M/yr that they're supposedly paying Brandon Roy. How in the world can they even submit an offer sheet??

    Re: Nic 4 years, 46.5 Million

    Who else were the Wolves going to Amnsety? Darko, Pek, Wes, and Ridnour were the only guys eligible for the amnesty. Obviously Pek and Ridnour wouldn't be amnestied. Wes has a tiny bit of value just because he's still young. Darko has no value at this point. He sat at the end of the bench eating bon bons with a towel over his head last year. The guy just gave up when Pek took his job.

    Your definition of "facts" is much different than anyone else, I'm learning.

    Then again I'm seeing a few of you guys suggest going after Darko now. Maybe you've become contagious?

    Darko Webster and Miller buyout gives them about 12.8 in cap room. Still no way to sign both Batum and Roy, IMO

    Re: Nic 4 years, 46.5 Million

    Batum is a bargain at $9mil, a slight overpay at $11mil, but that's the cost of doing business when you are the Portland Trail Blazers. It doesn't hamper the Blazers going forward, we aren't going to sign another SF in that ball park who is as good, and we sure as hell aren't losing him for no compensation. And, he has a chance to actually earn the contract going forward as literally our No. 2 seasoned vet. To me you match, no brainer, that is, if there is something to match.

    I wonder if the pups finally ponied up Williams if the Blazers would even bite on the sign and trade?

    Re: Nic 4 years, 46.5 Million

    what's the relevance of that?

    they overpaid gay when they weren't a playoff team. i was just pointing out that the market value of guys like batum is probably a little higher than many here are suggesting because there is precedent for teams overpaying to keep their own players in similar situations.

    i didn't say anything about him improving. i think he will make us better as he is now.

    i didn't say anything about the playoffs. i just think "need luck to win 30" is a little pessimistic, particularly if we match batum. if LMA is healthy and motivated 35-40 isn't an unreasonable expectation. easy to forget how good he was for most of last season.

    Actually about $14mil. Martell's owed 600k, and Miller's owed 800k. Cap is a little over $58mil. Wolves are at $44.2mil after Darko, Matell, and Miller are dealt with.

    Re: Nic 4 years, 46.5 Million

    I think they are just going to call it becoming a haynes, from now on. Kind of like how people say 'band aid' instead of 'bandage'. "Man, that hack writer is really becoming a Haynes."

    Wolves owner said it would be submited at the end of the business day today. Portland had until then if they wanted to do a S&T.

    Re: Nic 4 years, 46.5 Million

    I have this as well. But Webster can't just be cleared immediately, he has to go through waiver process. Even Miller's sketchy--I know MIN guys are saying he's just going to retire, but when Sheed did he had to file papers with the league office and wait before the cap space became available.
