According to Broussard

Conley/Wroten
Ray/TA
Gay
Z-Bo/Arthur
Gasol/Speights

Best fit for him IMO

imagine if that Ray for Mayo trade had actually gone through... kinda ironic how both teams are linked to those players even now in the offseason

For what it's worth, I'd do Ray for Mayo and Wroten Jr every day of the week (it would've been Mayo and a first).

How many years? A full four year offer?

That would be a tough contract for Danny to match, length wise. Although, Danny could go higher in his per annum bid for a shorter term contract. Say two years $18-20 million ($9-10mil per year). Keep more cap flexibility heading forward.

From what I read, it's also two years. But I'm not 100% sure.

Yeah, that would be pretty ideal, but don't see it necessarily happening. I will be pretty bummed that the deal didn't go through if Ray leaves for nothing and we don't get someone as 'good' as OJ.

Sources confirm Memphis has offered full midlevel to Ray Allen for 2 yrs. Bos willing to pay 2 yrs/$12 mill, tho no offer made yet.

Id really like to know what prevented that deal. Not that I would have liked it to go through nessecarily but still.

Is it possible Memphis didn't file the paperwork quick enough? Thats apparently what happened when they tried to trade OJ to Indiana.

Only two years, no worries there.

Danny can easily out-bid that without going out of his comfort zone.
