Is Lee a restricted free agent? I bet we offer him the MLE to see if he wants to play for a contender.
Lee is unrestricted. There is ZERO chance he will take the MLE - he's way too good...
That hasn't stopped us before. We approached Corey Maggette with the MLE and he ended up signing for 12 MM a year. It never hurts to ask.
Right! And sometimes it pays off. I don't see the C's being able to get Lee, but I do like him.
The C's need to re-sign Pierce and Allen and pick up a good center and a wing shooter.
I like Mike Miller, but he's probably too expensive. Reddick and Morrow are RFA's and I think their teams will match up to the MLE. Who else is out there? Wes Matthews? Did Utah give him the QO?
As for a Center...Haywood will be too expensive. Dampier, Shaq or Brad Miller?
