That is why this is an absurd contract to Batum, this first FA period is going to end up crushing people in the long run because teams are treating it like the old CBA.

All of those are old CBA contracts though, those would all be a different and probably a lot lower under the new CBA

Well, he is arguably the #1 PF in the league, top 3 for sure.

Watching Leonard play in the Big 10 this year, I think he is going to be a project. There were a lot of times he left a lot to be desired.

I was thinking more Lee at the 3, but I'm not really high on a 6'5" SF. Like I said though, I don't think Kahn and Adelman are done after this anyways, something else is going to happen, be it Lee, a backup big, Roy, and Shved, or maybe something else even.

Williams, maybe Budinger, but I doubt the latter. I really don't think it'll be either, I don't think they are done this offseason. In Adelman's system, the 2-3 are pretty interchangeable, I wouldn't be surprised if it was Roy-Lee or maybe Williams, kind of have to wait and see how it all...

Why do you think Portland was so hesitant to get a deal done let season with him, where they allegedly offered him what like a $5-6 million contract?

I'm just genuinely interested on your guys point of views on the subject after this has all played out. I'm obviously a Timberwolves fan, I guess all I have really heard is from the media in Portland or you guys arguing with other people from Minnesota on here for the most part, I guess I just...

Also, I'm not trolling, I am just curious, do you guys think matching him is the smart move moving forward for your team? I think everyone agrees it is overpaying quite a bit. Do you think in the long run this puts Portland in a good spot to make it deep in the playoffs?

Well guys, I'm guessing Olshey matches right? It would be horrendous for him to come out in public saying he will and then not matching. Plus, if they weren't going to match, then they would have done a sign and trade. Looks like you guys get to keep Batum. Someone in an above post stated...

Re: Minnesota: full of shit? So the meat of your team didn't play? It looks like they did...

Re: Minnesota: full of shit? Rubio, Pek, Beasley, all out substantial time during that, Love out for a few games...I mean, that is pretty much the meat of the team? Why don't you look at the scoreboard of the games when they were playing against the Blazers last year? They are conveniently...

Re: Minnesota: full of shit? What? Serious ROY consideration before his acl? Options aren't just scoring, him driving and dishing are just as sufficient.

Re: Minnesota: full of shit? When did i say >>> on that? I said =, too early to tell. Damion Lillard wasn't even on the radar for the lottery, talk about overhyped. Whatever, you guys live in your lala land, enjoy our late first rounders, maybe you can package them with your lotteries...
