So the Wolves are desperately trying to get the space to sign Batum, nothing knew here. I really hope they fuck themselves over and offer him a max contract, would be so awesomely Khan.

Where Blazers go to die......

I heard Minne is the team that got Oden thinking about coming back this season instead of waiting.

BREAKING NEWS - CSNNW has learned ‪#Timberwolves‬ have signed UFAs Ha Seung-Jin, Darius Miles, and Nick Van Exel to offer sheets. Batum offer was submitted 5 weeks ago.

:clap::lol::biglaugh:

Oh God, this is the gift that keeps on giving. Sooner or later it will be resolved 'today'.
 
Supposedly Rockets haven't signed Asik or Linn to offer sheets either, if they back out to complete a Howard trade it'll look pretty bad on the Rockets organization.

But if Wolves also back out of Batum offer then you have multiple NBA franchises not following through with verbal offers, so maybe everyone will view it as a new part of the free agency game. I wonder if Daryl and Kahn are chatting on following the same path.
 
That's an interesting situation -- Asik would be a great stop-gap, long-term backup.

Though, he's commanding about $8m/per, correct?

Minny is in even worse shape because they have a signed offer (they just can't submit it). NY was going to match Lin (I think), but yeah sucks for Asik if they really go through with the D Ho trade and hang Asik out to dry.

Nightmare scenario, Batum is matched by us (YAY!) and Minnesota has all this capspace they cleared for nothing (yay!) OR DID THEY? Suddenly a Dwight Howard appears and falls in KLove with Mosquito bites and Frostbite. :MARIS61:

Maybe Kahn will use that cap space on Javale Mcgee instead... <shrug>

problem with Asik is its 5m, 5m, 15m.

That is how it is on the cap for Chicago if they match. If it isn't matched it goes on Houston's cap at 8.3M, 8.3M, 8.3M. The actual cash payment is 5m,5m,15m regardless.

Those are very unusual contracts with the Gilbert Arenas early bird restricted free agency rules.
