I'm curious to see what Pau gets. If they manage to get both of them combined for under 20 mil, that might leave them enough room for two max free agents in 2015. |

I remember a recent interview where he said he's not going to promise a paycut and it will all be up to negotiation. Which is fair enough. There's no rule that says NBA players should promise paycuts on TV. |

![]() I saw that interview and there was no mention of "max". What he said was they he was going to try and get every cent he could get. Unless there is another team in the league that is willing to pay him $20-30 million for a year or two, he probably signing back with the Lakers for $15-20 million. Only was I could see him taking less that that is to play with some superstars he is close with (I think Melo could be on of those guys).

![]() I think he will take close to his market value. Which won't be anywhere close to 20 mil, most likely. He's an aging athlete coming off a MAJOR injury. More likely than not, he will be a Paul Pierce / Rudy Gay level player next year.
Also, does anyone honestly think that Kobe is going to go to Hawks or such for 5 extra mil at this point of his career? His agent might go and use it as a negotiations tactic but I don't buy it. Last edited by woodchuck; 07-22-2013 at 12:42 PM. |
