it doesn't... u can still sign another 2nd tier guy at Lee level money in 2011 regardless... the year to go after the max guys is in 2010 when Lebron, Bosh, Amare, Wade & Dirk maybe available... in 2011 u have Yao (who i wouldn't be crazy about investing max dollars in to tell u the truth), Tony Parker (he's staying in SA, bank on that), & an aging Paul Pierce (no thanks)... the rest of the list of FA's in 2011 is made up of names like Michael Redd, John Salmons, Zach Randolph & Pau Gasol... those are not franchise calibre talents like the ones u can target in 2010... signing D Lee to a big extension now & sacrificing any chance of landing 2 big names in 2010 is a stupid move.

I definitely agree 2010 is the year to land *THE* franchise player.

If we don't I still don't have a problem trying to do a Pistons - "not quite so big 4" scenario though. We'll see.

Meanwhile. Ooooo, 2011... Zach Randolph and Jamal Crawford!!! We can right our wrongs!

unless we somehow dump Eddy Curry's contract, we really should not lock up D Lee to a longterm deal... that's my outlook on this situation & i'm sticking to it, i don't care how many more double doubles Lee puts up this season... seems to me people's opinions change on this matter every other game as the wind blows... same goes for Nate Robinson... i look at both of them as trade bait right now, not because i don't like them, but because i know they have value & we should look to exploit that value as much as possible to give us the maximum amount of future flexibility.

Walsh's history is overpaying for his own guys, then trading them. He gave big deals to Jalen Rose, Antonio and Dale Davis and Croshere only to later trade them.

Hmmm, a guy by the name of isiah did a lot worse then that.
I'll never trust this' team again.

I got a good idea, let's trade the closest thing to an all-star we have so that MAYBE we might get a player in 2 years. Let's trade the guy with the most hustle, with leadership abilities, and putting up crazy numbers right now. Yeah great idea.

That's a lot to give up for a 'might get a player in 2 years'.
