Vasquez is valuable on a cheap short contract, not a 3 year $20M deal.

I didn't have any doubt..12 millions sounds about right,probably 4years..50 million on the T Dot
Is it a lot,maybe,but if he plays the way he played this year,then his worth it. I rather c a guy giving his all and playing like champ then paying someone like Rudy Gay at 19 million and plays like a bum.
If he does sign at that money that means Greivis Vásquez is pretty much a goner,maybe they can fit him under the cap,but then how u gonna sign Patrick Patterson,anyway this is first domino,keep it going."Never apologize for coming to me. Office hours are for patients.

(from bleacherreport) Updates from Monday, June 30
Brett Poirier of Sheridan Hoops reports that one team is finalizing a deal to sign Kyle Lowry:
Kyle Lowry is finalizing an agreement remain a member of the Toronto Raptors, reports @michaelgrange. - Brett Poirier NBA
@BrettNBA
(note bleacherreport is not the most trust worthy site when it comes to rumors considering they started the whole bosh coming back to Toronto and lowry S&T to Miami)

That would be 12M per year, and would be worrying in those 4th and 5th years, but if you don't want Lowry to at least see what MIA or HOU have to offer, you have to knock his socks off. And Ujiri has a history of paying whatever he needs to to keep his free agents - even if it means trading them a year or two later if their contract proves to be too cumbersome.
As for GV getting 5-6 mil, I doubt it. Look at some very serviceable backup PGs:
-J Nelson just got bought out, Collison, Sessions, Williams... Most of these guys play for minimum or under 2 mil.
I am convinced 3 years for $10 mil -done deal.
WRT to 2pat: Probably 4 years for 20-24 mil should do it.
With above 3, we should be be very comfortable WRT salary cap. Possibly room for ??? (VC or Okafor?)

How much money would we have to spend on GV, PPAT and De Colo?
How much of the Mid Level exception would we be able to spend without going into the tax?

2014-15:
DeMar DeRozan $9,500,000
Amir Johnson $7,000,000 (5 M guar)
Landry Fields $6,250,000
Chuck Hayes $5,958,750
Lou Williams $5,450,000
Steve Novak $3,445,947
Jonas Valanciunas $3,678,360
Tyler Hansbrough $3,326,235 (fully guaranteed now)
Terrence Ross $2,793,960
Julyan Stone $948,163 (unguaranteed until 7th July)
Dwight Buycks $816,482 (unguaranteed until 22nd July)
Marcus Camby $646,609 (buyout)
Kyle Lowry $9,315,000 (cap hold)
Patrick Patterson $7,763,253 (cap hold; $3,557,174* QO)
Greivis Vasquez $5,375,470 (cap hold; $3,898,090* QO)
Nando de Colo $1,901,900 (cap hold; $1,828,750 QO)
Lucas (BeBe) Nogueira $1,419,200 (cap hold; will probably sign for 120% of this - $1,703,040)
Bruno Caboclo $1,215,300 (cap hold; will probably sign for 120% of this - $1,458,360)
Above roster, with all free agents released (not incl draft picks), and Stone and Buycks waived: $51,718,597
With cap holds, well over cap (77M range).
Estimated:
Cap: 63.2 M
Tax: 77 M
Apron/Hard Cap: 81 M
*Starter criteria adjusted QO
So that leaves 25.3M for Lowry, Vasquez, Patterson, de Colo and the MLE. If you want to use the full MLE, that's 5.3M right there, leaving 20M for Lowry and the other 3. Maybe you let de Colo go, since you've got Williams now. Still, that's best case 10M for Lowry and 5M for the other two. Odds are you end up not using the entire MLE.

So if Lowry signs for $12M in his first year, they have $13.3M to use on GV, Patterson, NDC and the MLE.
