Apparently that's what's being reported on a local Portland radio show, according to Blake's sister. 4 year deal.

Does Blake's sister look good and how much is he supposed to make a season? I guess there goes Miller if this is true. They better get a backup wing and/or backup C now.

Judging by his age it is a 4 year - 8.5 mil contract w/ only 2 years guaranteed.

Well we don't have the LLE b/c we used it on Shannon last year and it's a bi-annual exception, but I could see him signing for 2 mil or so. Maybe the vet's min with a bonus?

God I hope we didn't offer him the MLE. Wouldn't mind if we split it on him and another shooter, even if that means no Mike Miller.
Thank you, Phil.

IF we gave him a significant portion of the MLE, I could see a sign and trade of Sasha as only a matter of time.

**** I hope we didnt choose him over Miller and are giving him the 2.5 million deal we offered to Dfisher and saying thanks but no thanks to fish because if were giving this guy any more than 3 mill a year were overpaying
