My 6th Rebuild 6 Report post Posted February 20, 2010 According to Kevin Arnovitz os espn.com: Teams who will compete in 2010 FA NY and Miami can offer 2 max contracts. Chicago, Nyets, and Wiz can offer 1 and have a few dollars left to offer a non max contract. Kings, and Clippers can barely offer 1. T'Wolves can offer one if they play around with their finances. The list: * LeBron James * Dwyane Wade * Chris Bosh * Kobe Bryant * Yao Ming * Dirk Nowitzki * Joe Johnson * Carlos Boozer * Amare Stoudemire * Marcus Camby * Manu Ginobili * Ray Allen * Paul Pierce * Rudy Gay (restricted) * Luis Scola (restricted) * Brendan Haywood * Kenyon Martin * Tyson Chandler * Josh Howard (team option) * Joel Przybilla IMO, if any of the top guys leave their teams (James - Amare), it will be to Chicago or Miami. The dark horse teams are the Clips and Kings. If Amare can get a real good deal that may not be a max contract, then I believe he opts out. With the new CBA, and salary cuts players will receive: Bosh, James, Wade, Dirk, Kobe, and Yao will re-up with their teams for the Max. Boozer and Joe Johnson are the most likely to leave their teams. Bosh, I do not think so much any more. I wouldn't mind seeing Pryzbilla, Ginobili, or Haywood in a Magic uniform next season and could possibly be had for the MLE. ***After seeing T'Mac on Sportscenter, if he can keep this play up, then I can see NY becoming a player, especially that Lebron and Bosh see they can have a 3rd big time scorer to relieve pressure off them. Money talks and I believe both will stay with their teams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
