This is an audition for Brook Lopez ... to see how much Boston should be willing to pay for his services this summer as a free agent as a Plan B should Dwight Howard (as expected) go elsewhere.
How much would you pay?
A max contract if Brook Lopez starts rebounding like he did in his first two seasons (below average but serviceable).
If his rebounding continues to suck for the rest of the season, that would talk me out of pursuing him pretty fast. What I'd be willing to offer, New Jersey would certainly match (~$10mil per annum).
Wouldn't they renounce Brook if they got Dwight? Eh, probably doesn't matter. If Nene got what he got, Brook will probably get max money from someone.
