Wow! 6 mill per. Do we match? We have no other backup. We should match it, do it quickly, So it may keep someone from throwing out big money for Scola. Between what Brooks makes and the offer for Kyle it's still not too much money tied up at the point.

Ooh, interesting. Looks like some team noticed him.

As for matching? No hesitation. Absolutely.

We won't get a back-up nearly as good. Lowry is needed. Pay him.

Lowry will probably start for the Cavs, which is why Lowry went to them. I think Mo Williams is a FA that the Cavs won't sign.

This is ironic, iirc, Lowry's twitter reaction to Gilbert's letter.

I think Mo Williams is on the block, otherwise they're not paying big money for a backup PG like Lowry

Back-up PGs that can impact the game like Kyle?

You're forgetting how good Lowry actually was, and just focusing, literally, on the word "back-up."
