    I'll take your word, I didn't watch his D much last year. He's always been a great shooter and solid passer. Didn't realize his rebounding prowess. With your additions, he'd be a great add for our bench. Hopefully he's closer to Dwight than Lebron.

    Morey can technically throw $8-10M at him for a 1 year contract.

    looks like we can offer something reasonable but my guess is that we will use the money towards a big. remind me what are our options outside Howard and Dmo?

    Clev it is, using Denver for leverage because they gave him highest offer.

    Why are we over the cap?
    I thought we can either use the remaining cap room ~9 or use TPE (8.4M), MLE (5.3M), Full BAE (2M).

    Morey won't use the TPE for him. Full BAE is too little. Must be the MLE - can offer up to 5.3M a year. I am not sure what's competitive to Nuggets's 3 year 12M.

    Cleveland was always the number one pick since Lebron chose to go back.

    So much for Miller, assuming that's correct. Not much of a surprise.
