Lewis Passes On Extension, Likely To Opt-Out
25th February, 2007 - 5:42 pm
Tacoma News Tribune -

It seems likely that Rashard Lewis will not accept the extension and will choose to opt out of his contract on July 1 and become an unrestricted free agent, according to Lewis’ new agent, Tony Dutt.

“We’ll make a decision soon but we are leaning toward opting out,” said Dutt, whom Lewis hired over the All-Star break after parting ways with Kevin Poston.

Sonics general manager Rick Sund declined to address Lewis’s contract, saying, “I told Rashard from the beginning I would not discuss any negotiations I have had with him or his representatives.”

I think Orlando is where he'll end up if he opts out.

I was against it at first, but going for a sign and trade for this guy isn't a bad idea at all.

Great and we'll get Vince in a sign and trade with Jersey....5 year max contract

Seriously, Rashard is a MUCH better fit for Orlando. He'll defer to Dwight, or at the very least not mind being the ONLY star. Plus he doesn't have the mental issues Vince has. Plus Rashard isn't 28 until August.
