    I have a feeling he won't be back.

    He won't get more than $3-$4 mil/year.

    Exactly what I was thinking, 3 year 9 mill, or some team might offer 4 yr 12 mill.

    Hedo wants $10-11mill per, Ariza wants 9, Big Baby wants the full MLE. I've stopped paying attention to a lot of these numbers, since they're so obviously the work of agents.

    Its not that crazy. Hes 23 and averaged 16/6 as the starting PF in the playoffs. I'd be pissed if my team gave him the MLE but I wouldn't be surprised if a team did offer him 4+ mils/year.

    If I were Boston I'd hold onto Brandon Bass' phone number and continually negotiate back and forth between these two. I reckon that there's only so many teams that need/want a smallish PF and with Lee, Millsap, and Bass all out there they can wait out the market and probably keep Glen pretty cheap.

    I think he will be back. I don't think teams are crazy enough to offer him a deal that we can't afford to match.
