    You could be onto something here.

    Per Millsap's ESPN player page:

    Status Alert:
    The Deseret News reports the market value for Millsap is drastically lower than what it was at the start of free agency. (Jul 5)

    We need a center but I really wanna use it on Wafer but I think the smarter choice would be Zaza.

    No disrespect to anyone that has posted. I have not read any posts as of yet. I would like to read what Bima Thug thinks our best avenue is for this money we may get

    donlt care to much for zaza because he would just be a rental ...Wafer, Milsap, or Bass I would be happy with.

    I would love to have Milsap, not sure he will be around long enough to be had though

    I rather give all the money to Paul Milsap over Von wafer but if some how u can get both thats even better... Paul Milsap looks so promising and so much upside to his game. Morey get it done. Pursue Milsap

    I understand that Millsap is good but we already have 2 PF's who are just as good as him and don't forget our 3rd string PF, Chuck Hayes, could be a backup or even a starter on some teams.

    If we do get a disabled player exception here are the players I'd use it on

    Zaza Pachulia C 6-11 275lbs 6ppg 6rpg age 25 (Young and has potential to put up good numbers if he gets PT)

    Anderson Varejao PF/C 6-11 260lbs 9ppg 7rpg age 26 (I don't care how much he flops. Theres no denying he would be a good fill in at center and hes still only 26)

    Chris Wilcox PF/C 6-10 235lbs 7ppg 5rpg age 26 (Hes only 6-10 but I think he could fill out the Center position quite well. He throws down and is quite athletic. If he could focus more on defense, he could be a very good player)

    Chris Andersen PF/C 6-10 228lbs 6ppg 6rpg 3bpg age 30 (Hes only 6-10 but has freakishly long arms and is a great defender. I'd love to sign him)

    Marquis Daniels SG/SF 6-6 200lbs 14ppg 5rpg age 28 (Could be our starting SG. Hes a good defender and a pretty good shooter but he can defenitely score and hes still 28.)

    Von Wafer SG 6-5 210lbs 10ppg 2rpg age 23 (This guy inspired our team last year. He deserves a big contract. He gets the starting SG spot and could average 15-20ppg)

    Marcin Gortat C 6-11 240lbs 4ppg 5rpg age 25 (Maybe we can still steal him from the Mavericks)

    David Lee PF 6-9 240lbs 16ppg 12rpg age 26 (May seem undersized to play center at 6-9 but he played center all of last season for the Knicks so I think he could handle the job and if we could get him we would have a go to guy on offense)

    Carlos Delfino SG 6-6 230lbs 9ppg 5rpg age 26 (Good scorer and could be a starting SG)

    Forget about Millsap. If he's obtainable with the MLE then there'll be at least 15 teams that will pay that price. And they don't have to have wait for league approval to get the money.

    You're very creative,but I'm sorry to say that some of your ideas are impractical.
    The Jazz may go over the LT to sign him, They are also looking to trade Boozer and even Kirilenko if the report on Tracy was correct. They are simply not going to let him go without a fight. Milsap can get more money from other clubs. It's also quite probable that he wants to stay with Deron,who undoubtedly makes him look better on offense than he really is.
