Lee and our #1 pick for Outlaw and Webster.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

Why cant Portland just front load a contract so bad if the Knicks match then they can only go after one free agent in 2010. Everyone says Walsh has the leverage I dont know how being a agent works but lets say a team call Lee agent and says we want to trade for him. If I were the agent I would give some outrageous number so they are scared to trade for him. This creates a bidding war for Lee over the summer. There is no possible way you get equal value for Lee if you trade him. If you would have traded him this summer you get value.

first does Lee want to go there? The only way that works is if Lee wants the Blazer's $50mm and NOT the Knicks $50mm. Does Lee hate it here? Will he have a better career there or here? Will he put up the #s in Port he would with MDA?

The only way that scenario works is if Lee decides he doesnt want to be here.

Also Port has to not draft anyone, and then renounce Frye, Diogu and Martell Webster. If they do that they can still only offer Lee about $12mm, unless they make more trades.

How many good young players does Port want to dump and get nothing back for so they can frontload a contract for Lee that the Knicks would match in terms of money and years anyway?

There isnt a lot of substance to the fear of losing Lee to Portland. Is it possible? Sure. Is it likely? History says no.

Do we send them a future #1 and the rights to exchange 2nd round picks too?

I think Frye is looking at the league min. or LLE for his next contract.

Channing Frye's career will continue to mirror Michael Doleac's.

I'd leave our #1 pick out of it at first but if its a dealbreaker. We can't trade this year's pick so its our 2012 pick. By then we shouldn't care.

Its actually more difficult. Webster signed a contract extention. 4 years for about 20M.

i actually think Frye could have done well in this system... I think his problem is confidence

his problem is his overabundance of X chromosome in his DNA.

personally i'm holding to the belief that Donnie's got a plan when it comes to D Lee & stressing over it is a waste of time... the big picture is keeping our options open for 2010, not whether or not D Lee gets a ridiculous contract offer from another team & he's no longer here after this season... Walsh has proven that he's got the long range plan in mind w/every move he's made as our GM so far, & i don't see any reason to start doubting him now.
