Shump is "signed" through 2015, as his 4th year option was picked up, but he may not reach free agency as he can be negotiated into a new deal before that period comes up or placed as an RFA.

Lowry only impacts the "2015" if we were to re-sign him, but I honestly dont think he's contractually worth more than Felton's deal.


Lowry at 4/22 and Melo taking 5/100 would be sweet

I believe Lowry is around 6 per year and Felton is 3.. I think

Yes that is what Lowry makes now, i feel he's slightly overpaid.

He wont be dealt if teams think that price is on his mind....a little too much for an average player.

Can we just pay a higher premium and get someone like Dragic? Pass-first, young, good attitude, good contract PG. I'd give any 1 of the three "valuable" assets we have, and then some.

Or another option is paying a lower premium for Vazquez

We'd give you Vasquez but he's a pass first PG and we need him for 2 things. #1 the tank and #2 to develop Jonas. If he plays well this year, he's probably going to be our future backup PG.

Trust me, play Felton, you'll be fine with the tanking.

Man you have to understand. Were trying to tank but we are trying to develop our young players. Felton can't do that plus he has a long contract and is a cancer in the locker room. Vasquez is a great tank PG because he sucks at defense but can help our players develop.

If we take Felton we want a unprotected 2018 1st round pick or Shumpert or Hardway Jr.

Hey, I don't want to do this trade either. We need a pass first PG anyhow.

I have a sick feeling my raptors will actually win the atlantic if something isn't done soon, so I'm at the point where I don't even want a draft pick back for Lowry.

Yeah exactly. Take Ray and you'll start losing games in bunches.

Na, look at our schedule coming up. Spurs, Heat, Indiana were going to get destroyed. Our next game isn't till Wed, Lowry will be gone by then. Not only will he be gone but Masai will get a good deal no matter what team it is. Can't give away your assets for nothing, got to be patient.

Eric Bledsoe. Note that the suns would laugh at the above offer. It would run all of shump hard away and the first to sniff at dragic

Nets and Knicks are both willing to trade alot for Kyle Lowry from the Raptors. Will be interesting to see where he ends up.
