He isn't worth over 2 mil/yr imo- he's an above average defender with no offense outside of dunks. But players are likely going to tax you when they're leaving a contender to join a lottery team.
Saying that, i do kind of like what Bird is doing with that team. Putting bandaids over some of their current weaknesses until 2010-2011 when they've got around 45 million dollars in expiring contracts.
