He’s such a likeable human being and the defensive impact and potential is there… I think we’re reaching Greg Oden territory though.
As a stake holder and buyer of all Lively stock, if you were the GM, what would you be willing to offer him in an extension this summer?
60/4 with an early termination option after year two and three depending on games played. Let´s not forget the MLE is like 13M already. Got to give some incentive to not run it into RFA. Also he is such a good guy. If we can give Dwight Powell 4M/year for nothing, we can take care of an extraordinary human being that lost both his parents at a young age already. And if he comes back and plays 80% of games over that four year contract it´s a super bargain.
