    So if Batum is matched then your hopes rest on lillard and Leonard developing or a high draft pick next year...

    You Lillard fans will love this gem from KFAN:

    The butthurt is strong over there right now.

    Elliot Williams is also a player to watch.

    I have little doubt Lillard develops. Almost zero.

    Then match him with D'Anotni? Greatness.

    Your hope is dead and unfounded now, isn't it?

    They do a deal last summer/fall and they have helluva lot less cap room entering free agency. They didn't get their man Hibbert, but they wouldn't have even been able to offer if they'd done an extension last year -- Nic's caphold was ridiculously small at around 4-5 million.

    I guess acquiring Jefferies added some to our cap, but we'll have a lot of expiring deals next year, and we'll have enough to go after another max player.

    We better not match. Batum isn't worth that type of money!

    If there's an SF as good and young as Batum available for 8 million, you're right...

    ... I just don't think there is.

    That's what I'm looking at. Batum has been starting for two seasons and he's proven he isn't a robin type player. 12 mil per is at least that caliber player. There aren't many sf better than Batum, but there are a hell of a lot of wings better IMO. And if I want to pay 12 mil per for a player; then I hope it's someone better than Batum.
