He gives really good/awkward high fives.

Didn't do a search so forgive me, could the max players with options pick up those options and roll the dice for 2011-2012 with the collective bargaining agreement needing to be renegotiated?

Looks like Ferry finally made a move...

Cavs are also supposedly very close to resigning Andy too which is a good move imo.

In addition to the announcement of the 2009-10 salary cap, NBA teams received tentative projections from the league office warning that the cap is estimated to drop to somewhere between $50.4 million and $53.6 million for the 2010-11 season.

This is the guy Cleveland needed.

Windhorst is saying Andy is resigning for 6 years 50 million. About 8.3 million a year.

I would've liked to see him get about 7-7.5 mill, but I guess...

even though you can't replace his hustle i feel that is a bit over paid for andy as well.

Shaq/Z/Varejao would cost the Cavs nearly $40 mill next season.

I think Parker is a nice pickup...depending on the price tag. He's athletic, can defend, shoot, and is smart. Hopefully he won't be the next Sasha or catch Larry Hughes syndrome.

If you look at him being the starting center for the last 5 years of the contract it isn't that bad. As long as he stays happy and active for the next 6 years it will be worth it. This contract will probably take him through most of his viable career.
I wonder if Parker will get the whole MLE?

Meant to quote the Andy post.
