Boom: Paul Millsap met with Orlando Magic in Atlanta at 12:01 last night, high interest between both. Will decide between Magic and Hawks.

wow thats pretty crazy. i never saw orlando jumping in on him. i cant see them signing millsap and tobias.

Seems to be a replacement for Tobias.

Pretty good fit in Orlando next to Payton, Dipo, and Vuc

I would assume he is going to get somewhere in the 17-18 million range for 4 years.

yea they have a nice little starting 5 with henzoja too. could make playoff noise in the east.

Melo
Carroll ($11 mil)
Millsap ($12 mil) or West/JHill/Koufus
DGreen ($11 mil)
Galloway/Shved

Good Defensive "GSW" squad, should make playoffs

Millsap wants around $17M, I thought.

He does and we have less than 30 million in cap-space.

Once the big names are out of the way, the salary numbers should start to look a little more normal (although still on the high side for 2nd tier FAs).

Everybody's going to want short deals, though, which might not be a bad thing.

I don't think anyone thought that. The play might be to wait out the inflated market when teams have no $$$ left and start picking off some bargains. Corey Joseph, Kyle O'Quinn types and hopefully get one bigger fish to come.

He needs to be locked up ASAP, or we risk losing him.

Its a dangerous game but I don't think you can lock up monroe with first meeting with LMA and DJ first.

It's pretty laughable. No one is taking a pay cut.

everyone wants something, I want $50 mil....doesn't mean a team is going to give him $17 mil.. ex. Matthews wants $15 mil, I doubt he gets more than $12 mil.

Yeah, but he's starting out real high. I doubt he'll drop to 12 mil. Maybe $15M, like what Monroe is looking for. Not much lower than that.

check off another team with no cap space. Miami Heat are all tied up.

Millsap to decide between Orlando and Atlanta

Post #112 » by **Deeeez Knicks** » Wed Jul 1, 2015 1:48 pm

If Mislap goes to Orlando, does Tobias go to Atlanta?

what, no no no no no

the tallest guy on the court you want to be 6'8? We aren't playing in the WNBA!

And no way Carroll or Milsap make that little $$$. Milsap is talking about a deal in the 17-19 million dollar range bro.

Lol what you got against the WNBA bro lol.. I wouldn't mind a woman oh nvm :lol:

It would make some sense. Atlanta gets a younger player (probably not as good defensively) but could have similar impact.

Tobias Harris will end up in DET. He doesn't want to play for Scott Skiles because he never gave him a chance.
