Millsap raised his value during out of Boozer.

Blazers are trying to stack their team...it failed with Hedo...I wonder what will happen here. He would definitely be a great addition to any team.

THIS SENTENCE IS IN CAPS TO EXPRESS MY EXCITEMENT ABOUT SAID OFFER.

<-- me if it happens

I'd also be very happy, Paul is a beast but he isn't very well known. He averaged 8.6 RPG and 13.5 PPG in 30 MPG last year. Top 50 in the league in FG&#37; and 28 double doubles. (No, that wasn't from memory, I had to look up his exact stats ;))

Make it happen KP!

We'll see if Utah matches the offer...

[garnett_21]

I guess the contract offer was for 4 years and $32-36 million...basically $8-9 million per season, on average.

Like was just posted on Yahoo, why offer this money to someone who will backup Aldridge?? Why not go after Odom?? The article on yahoo said that Portland refused to go after Odom which is stupid because he is exactly what they need.

It would be impossible for the city of Portland to accept Odom.. he's gotten into one too many scuffles with the Blazers, LMA especially.

WOW! I guarntee Utah wont match that, unless they dont plan signing Boozer long term, cant give him that much since they need to pay Deron as well as Boozer...

Boozer may be headed to Chicago according to rumors...if that happens, they'd probably match Millsap's offer...and Deron is already signed for another 3 years (he and CP3 signed 3-year extensions within a few weeks of each other)
