    meh....

    I guess it's a decent deal. with the Lux tax doesn't that mean they're paying double?

    Yup, but Im sure they'll dump that lux tax as it approaches, or at least a big chunk of it.

    Good pick up, will probably be a good backup but someone is probably going on the orlando magic tho

    Remember when he started ahead of Ben Gordon? I've always thought Ben was a better scorer.

    Decent pick up coming off the bench though.

    We are doomed, at this rate someone will offer Lowry the full MLE

    it won't happen. If a team like the Pacers looks at Farmar being better than Lowry then it just shows the ignorance of NBA scouts.

    Lowry 3 years $10 mil

    Indiana was looking for a point...and Kyle probably could have started there...they offered a lil over 3 mil. I don't think anyone is going to offer him the full MLE.

    With Indiana looking to use Lance Stephenson as their point guard, I don't think they're as interested in Lowry as they were.

    They were pushing that Nelson/Carter package on a couple folks. They may make the foolish move and pull the trigger for Arenas. If they're lucky, they'll net Paul + Okafor, but that possibility has gotten very dim.

    This guy shot like 30% during a long stretch last year for the Knicks and lost his starting spot because of that.

    he's a good backup pg. plays solid defense, can be a floor general. nice addition for the magic.

    to me this is interesting because blake got about $4M per year, and duhon got about $3.5M. seems like lowry will be in that price range.
