I'm just listing the better guys(with my next post i will list them so you don't have to scroll down forever to reply) who will be Free Agents next year and want to see what you guys think each player is worth in your eyes and what he most likely will earn.

Look at all those bigs....

This is what the Suns have been waiting for...

Although Len has been looking good these few games....

On a side note I predict a lock out in our future.

Seems like every player is getting the max these days.

Owners only have one option in these talks.... Sign the guy for max....or let him walk and your team sucks.

I bet Owners will seek more leverage over players.

Yes, but how much can the Suns spend next summer?

They'll be at roughly 59m with Dragic's 16.5 to 17.5m per yet to be added on July 1. (10 million more than he's making now)

If the cap goes up to say? 72 million. Yes, the Suns could add a 12 million dollar (big man) contract before signing Dragic to his big payday.

For Dragic to stay on and a big man signing, Sarver will have to be cool with a (roughly again) 82-84 million dollar payroll for '15-'16

just sayin'

Think someone will offer Jimmy Butler the MAX and Chicago won't match right now he is their best player.
Chicago is a big market team but act like OKC & Memphis.

Even before this season began, looking at the sort of contracts being donated to young wing players, I felt Jimmy Butler was worth the max, as well. However, I thought Chicago could've locked him up for a bit lower than the max-- Y'know, before he started putting up numbers this season. That boy Jimmy gon' get paid. . .

Ellis has a player option, let's see what he does. Tyson Chandler also comes off the books.

Dragic won't extend if he'll continue to be withouth the ball in his hands... He is not a SG and is the best point on the team, the way he had to play so far is ridiculous. Signing Zoran to appease him won't be enough.

Yup. The Bulls screwed up here. According to reports, Jimmy would have taken $50 million over four years. Next summer, he'll get offered $15 million annually for sure. Chicago only have themselves and their "hometown discount" idea to blame for this.

Oh ****. I guess that makes Jordan/Hibbers useless. Since we're going with Jahlil Okafor.

PG: Rondo/Lin/Clarkson
