Why not get Millsap

If Odom is not moving from his 10 mil/year demand, then I think a good alternative would be Millsap. He is a restricted free agent but we can still give him a offer of 8 mil/year and see if Utah will match it. The Blazer are getting ready to give him and offer around the same price, so it would not hurt to give it a shot. If it doesn't work out, lets pay Odom his 10 mil.

I still would take Odom anyday but Millsap, IMO, would be a good enough replacement. He has size and can rebound. Thoughts?

Mods.....If this has been discussed, please go ahead and lock it up

We don't have any money to go after Millsap!!! We either sigh Odom or look to make some trades is our only options. I thougth everyone here was aware that we are way over the cap and do not have our MLE or LLE were fu*ked if we don't re-sigh Odom becuase our only trade pieces other teams maybe intertested in is Morrison and Farmar and I am not sure what we can actually get for a combo of the two. Bad post!

I know we are already 13 mil over the tax threshold but whatever money we are going to offer Odom, let offer less to Millsap.

Doesn't work like that. Not even close.
