    Basically, 4 years, $39 million, for cap purposes it will count as $9.74 million each year. However, the actual payments each year would be (roughly) $5 mil, $5.2 mil, $14 mil, $15 mil.

    Only if they can dump Deng & Boozer/Noah. They're in salary cap hell.

    i'm gonna assume that our first visit isn't to Dragic because we feel confident that we have him locked up ...right?

    I'm excited about the possiblity of adding Asik because he really is an excellent defender, but i really hope we've covered our bases with Dragic before-hand.

    Asik is easily in the lead for the most overrated player on CF.

    I agree, he lacks lateral quickness.

    He rebounds & protects the rim. If anyone assumes he's going to do more than that, yes, they're overrating him.

    Could those numbers be flipped to front load the contract like the Thunder's Collison contract?

    Resign Camby. Let him and McHale teach him the ropes.

    Feels like the night Morey rang Gortat's doorbell.

    Do you guys think we'd be willing to sign&trade for Asik or do we just make an offer, hope the Bulls don't match and if they do life goes on?

    If you do think we'd be willing to trade for him, what's the absolute most you'd give up for? Lee? The 2013 Mavs 1st? One of our PF's?

    Come on man, I haven't seen anybody around here overrating this guy. He's better than nothing, which is what the Rockets have right now. Are you saying you don't even want Morey to talk to the guy? Do people have to complain about everything around here? Even make stuff up just so they can complain.
