    Yeah, and he was around Jaynes way too much while he was here seeing how he's doing in Cleveland.

    I assume teams can't ask him for a medical exam until the 1st.

    No sane GM is going to sign him without extensive due diligence.

    Yeah as Keep on Rolling said they max out Millsap that only leaves maybe $7 million for Carroll. I bet teams offer him $10-12 per year or possibly more. He's never had a big contract so I think he takes the extra money. Especially if its a solid playoff team like hopefully we'll be!

    I could see him only getting small offers slightly more than the MLE. The league saw what happened when Kobe was given a big contract rehabbing an Achilles tear. I bet we offer more than that and he takes a one year deal to prove he's due that big payday.

    @DarnellMayberry: The Thunder has traded the contract of Luke Ridnour to Toronto along with cash to create a $2.85 million trade exception.>>>>>

    Traded four times in one week.

    It's just not his summer.

    Hey, he can spin it as "everyone wants me!" He better demand a shirt with his name on it from each team.

    I think our first meeting will be GM to GM on a trade of Kaman and Henderson to someone.

    But if I had to pick a free agent first meeting then it would be Monroe then Aminu. Not sexy necessarily (at least not the second one).

    $18 mil per season is a ton of money!

    Au contraire - we're #14!

    14. Danny Green: 4 years, $48 million with Your Sacramento Kings! (Wishful thinking.) (4 years, $48 million with the Blazers.)

    I would be okay with that, although it would be kind of galling for CJ to be a bench player on the worst team in the West.

    Saw that...it is right after the "wishful thinking". If that applies to the Kings, fine but Danny Green is not exactly a recoup from LA.
