Didn't he offer Dooling even less than AJ.

I'll say it like this. Jc is a talent but he is a project. He someone that could really help this team in a couple of years. They bring back back Dooling they pretty much bringing back the same PG situation. With Dooling and Jameer likely logging most of the minutes. I just don't think Otis had plans on doing that.

Magic dont disclose exact ammounts so it think it was just conjecture to how much he was being offered etc..

As thief said earlier it was prob the same deal offered to both.

Too bad Dooling knows what a Bi-annual exception is.

Otis could have made it sound special. Like, "Keyon, we have a unique contract offer in place for a unique member of the Magic. It's called the BI-ANNUAL EXCEPTION. You see, it's an EXCEPTION to the rules - sort of a top secret contract that is reserved only for certain skilled players in the league. You would join an elite group of members past and present, collectively known as The B.A.E.

Your mission, if you choose to accept it - is to sign this contract."

Nah...it would never work. :-?

... especially because Dooling has Bird rights. The Magic can sign Keyon up to the Max. THIS year.

It's also assuming Dooling has no idea what Bird rights are, and is a complete moron.
