Sounds like he'll be a RFA next offseason. Yes he's short, but I think he'd help form a formidable frontline rotation.
Thoughts? Sounds like he turned down a 3 year 15 million dollar offer.

Re: Jason Maxiell
he has a very similar style to Craig Smith, I dont think they are very far apart and we've resigned Craig for way less than Maxiell turned down, so i guess the wolves wont be interested in him unless he have a monster season this upcoming season.
The wolves will have some decent capspace next year, they shouldnt target Maxiell as their target of priority

Re: Jason Maxiell
Man, you want to dump Craiggers on the first doorstep with a doorbell and space for a basket but you want to trade for Maxiell?

I agree that him and Maxiell are alike, except I like JMax's hustle & energy a lot more than I do with Craig. Plus Max can occasionally go on and get you blocks, and is a better defender(Not saying much)

Re: Jason Maxiell
Max is on defense what Craig is on offense. If the two merged into one, look out.

Re: Jason Maxiell
I like Maxiell quite a bit; he's built like Craig Smith, but he plays like Tyrus Thomas. He'd probably be a better fit than Craig, but I don't think they're much different in overall talent, and for the 2.5 - 3x Craig Smith's salary that he seems to be looking for, it probably wouldn't be worth it.

Re: Jason Maxiell
For the kind of money that he wants, I would probably pass. But, if we were willing to pay a PF type of player 5 or 6 million a year, I don't know if I would go for Maxiell, Milsap, or Bass.

Re: Jason Maxiell
Maxiell does absolutely nothing for me. Short power forwards that hustle are a dime a dozen every year in the draft. Also, for the salary he wants, he doesn't do that much more than Craig Smith to open up the checkbook.
Pass.
Pass.
