actually 17.5M per (Portland overpaying even Blazers fans are not happy)
Rockets offer is 15M per
Bazemore is seeking at least 17.5M per
i hear more like 19M per

it will depend how meeting with Horford go
believe Morey is offering Horford the max
whatever left over is for Bazemore

Morey also want Howard back but not at his asking price 24M

our best option left at PG is Jack now
unless there is a trade in place

We can give Horford his max and give Baze near 20 if we move one of KJ, Brewer, Ariza

If Morey signs horford to max money I'm leaving.

Mike Conley is the highest paid player in NBA history.

I think that he'll earn more next season that Curry & Harden combined! :lol:

I think Morey will just sit around and wait for everyone to overpay everyone then he'll just sign those leftover

Well I'll say this also the signing of Howard means Horford is gone I just can't see a single team paying their frontcourt what 80+ mil? I think it has to be more if Howard gets his $24 per and Horford gets full max plus whatever Milsap is getting.

If wade ends up in Boston I think you will see Horford follow him. So let's hope he stays in Miami

Unlike years past I am not going to be staring at my screen, hitting F5 for updates. About to go relax with a glass of wine & a movie. I don't think that Horford or Bazemore will announce anything today. Maybe not even until after the holiday.

Just my feeling, not working off of anything I've heard or read.

I wouldn't because Howard is unable to except the fact that his bad offense game has gotten worse and does want to play pick n roll. Horford already does that plus pick n pop.

IMO Howard is a loser in free agency. Did not get a fourth year and is still making the same money. Which he wanted the 4th year and to make $24.
