    I'm a huge Gerald fan, but he has a player option next year for 12 million which I'm sure he will most certainly pick up. I believe he will turn 30 in July and be 31 after his contract is up. Just how long of a deal are we thinking? He provides the little things that so few players in this league can but I wouldn't want to see him signed to a long term deal and then start to decline.

    Also, we can sign Gerald to any deal regardless of having cap space or not. You can always go over the cap to sign your own players.

    Batum's first up, we still got a ways until we have to worry about keeping G. Wallace. It's an obvious no-brainer though.

    Long term Wallace...I say extend until hes 33 or so then have an option for the 2 years following. Crash is BEAST! and with the new speed we play at. You can't touch him!

    I hope we don't break the bank trying to re-sign Batum to a new extension. But I agree with Tobyus that a short deal for Wallace would work best as we don't want to pay him big money after his peak. The question is, is he at his prime right now? If so, how much longer does he sustain it? If he does decline, will there be a noticeable dropoff?

    Can't they go over the cap and pay luxory tax? I know the blazers of 1999-2003 were way above the cap those years

    The new CBA will soon be destroying teams that go over, as well as limiting their trade abilities if i am recalling correctly.

    Yeah, he was tripping with that Scottie Pippen reference. Nowhere as good as him, BUUUTTT, I think he can be, if he plays like a man. In Euroleague, you are taught more about finesse, and the fundamentals. He needs to put a little more muscle on, ...

    I think what Stotts is doing is superb. His plays are great. I remember the only play he ever called for Meyers Leonard, against the Bobcats. Great movement, got LMA a good mid range look, got Batum a decent three look and the got Meyers way down ...
