    well, it'll all be over in 3 days. Though I'm not sure how MIN has the room to do it. :dunno:

    Nothing would make me happier than Olshey matching in like 2 seconds, although I like making them wait

    So, we need to make any unbalanced trades in the next 72 hours right?

    Re: Nic 4 years, 46.5 Million

    Well, I guess we see whether the Blazers match. I do find it funny that Batum's agent is all like I would hope that Paul Allen wouldn't stand in the way of Batum's dream of playing in Minnesota. If I'm PA, I would say, well I would hope that Batum doesn't stand in my way of winning an NBA championship.

    LOL. The CBA prevents a lot of teams from "just doing" things.

    Re: Nic 4 years, 46.5 Million

    It ain't my money, but I don't really think Batum is an $11 mil/year player. That's nearly what Aldridge is making per year.

    I guess we're going to match just because we hate to see an asset leave without compensation, but it seems pretty overpriced.

    Nic isn't worth that money. Let him walk, PA.

    Well, hopefully they just put the ball in his hands and see if he can shoulder the burden. Time to step up to the plate and earn that money.

    I sort of agree, but Allen won't. He takes this kind of shit personally.

    Relook at the contracts being offered to FA's. It's not out of proportion to what's been handed out, and he is only 23

    Re: Nic 4 years, 46.5 Million

    It's a risk to match. If he doesn't live up to the contract you are going to be fighting all the luxury tax paying teams trying to offload contracts. But, I guess PA doesn't care.
