If so, how much would Crawford and Bradley command in terms of a contract deal?

My thinking is both would get Lee type money. Somewhere in the $5-$7 million range in the area of three or four years.

They are both RFA's right?

I'd probably see how much they will command in the open market first. About $8 million a year for both is probably the price I'd be willing to pay (I think that's a bit overpaying already too but I don't mind). Anything less, absolute MATCH. But more than $8 million for each, I'd probably just keep one, and I'm leaning Crawford.

As long as Crawford plays in this level, and Bradley still be the pitbull that he is, $16 million per year for your SG rotation is not bad.

If both could be signed for a relative bargain, then yes.  I would not want the team to overextend to keep either.

Obviously, it depends on the contract.  And let's remember, we can't just sign guys for what we want, the player has to agree as well.

But to be honest, both will be impacted greatly by the return of rondo.  I would wait and see how boh reposnd.  So basically, too early to tell right now.

I agree with this. I see Avery getting about a million more per year, but I don't see either one breaking the bank or [obviously] falling to the minimum.

Yeah, those are my exact numbers I'd be willing to pay, If a team gave bradley 21 mil @ 3 years I'd let him walk, hes not a starter on a championship team IMO.

I think $5m for Crawford as well.  I just think he's worth more than $3m.  Of course, my opinion doesn't mean much.

i'd have to know more, such as where did we finish and are we expected to get a top pick?

I would not come anywhere close to paying either of them 8 mil but thats just my opinion. Crawford for me is a 3 to 4 million a year guy on a bad team. I am not a Bradley fan so I even think 5 mil a year for him is a bit much but I could see him getting a Tony Allen type of contract.

  If today was the last day of the season we'd be the proud winners of the Atlantic division.

I have been thinking about this same question for a couple weeks now.

Bradley: $24/4 years
Crawford: $22/4 years

Anything over that and I would let them walk. I don't like the idea of filling up the cap with role players on big "middle class" deals before we land the other cornerstone stars of the team.

Bradley has really found his groove as a shooting guard. His mid range game has been awesome. His defense is always there. But his playmaking is still terrible, and he will always be undersized against the big elite shooting guards.

Originally I would have only offered Crawford his 1 year restricted offer of 3.2 million so that he could really prove his is committed to the team. But his combo guard play has been fantastic so far. If he can keep this up, and embrace a role as a 6th man when Rondo returns, I would try to sign him for a Lee style deal. If he can't check his ego with a smaller role, he has to go.
