He has a lot of upside and great character, but he's never available. Maybe a one year deal if they want to pay him and see how it goes, but I'm completely against a 4 or 5 year deal at large money. I know some will disagree, but you can only pay for potential for so long. He needs to be active. If he wants 10 mil per year or anywhere near that, he needs to find a new team imo.
I agree with the point you're making. Not sure if I agree that $10M is too much for Lively though. $10M seems like a reasonable amount, while considering his unavailability so far.
