GV is gonna want a payday of some kind...all of our leverage comes in RFA. Let him play up his value and see if a sign and trade is available...if not we keep him for something reasonable

No doubt if a sweet deal that a GM can't refuse comes along, MU would deal, but I doubt anything is going to blow him out of the water. Besides, he's gone on record as saying the players/team will determine their fate. At this point, not only is he showing signs of coming out of his slump (btw, he arrived still recovering from injury), but this team is making waves in great part due to chemistry, and he's a big part of that chemistry with the bench, as well as spelling Kyle for easier minutes in the 2 PG set.
He's an RFA with a good qualifying offer in July. MU will weigh the options then, but I doubt anything happens before then, unless part of a draft day move.

lowry has an 'injury' without an injury? please. training staff would have wanted him to sit out if he had that issue from beginning of last week.

Zach Lowe has written a bunch of articles where he mentions 'Andre Miller, PhD', based off his knowledge of passing lanes and angles. I guess if Zach Lowe has so many good things to say about him he's got to be good for something... maybe not a perfect deadline fit, but I can understand the interest.

just a scenario that might develop here.. say LA trades Pau to Suns for Okafor and a first round pick and they ll be 3 mill short of avoiding luxury tax... they turn to Steve and say we are gonna try to send you to canada where you can retire with respect but so sorry for your ring chance.. and LA with that Suns pick trade Steve for GV and fillers like non guarateed contracts.*stone*.
does that make sense or what..? anyone against it?

And then there's the fact that we're paying a 40-year-old nearly $10 million to be a (presumably) back up PG next year, if he doesn't retire.
Another approach that fits both team's needs might be Kaman + Meeks + Farmer + draft pick for Vasquez, with Kaman's salary absorbed by the Gay exception. Both teams stay under the tax, they get their tank on with a decent backup PG they can resign with a cheap qualifying offer, and we get a passable backup C and PG, another wing, and they all expire at the end of the year.Last edited by octothorp; Wed Feb 5, 2014, 05:31 AM.
