Charlotte news says we need to resign thease three players to teease amounts.
Okafor - TO a five year 67 milion contract.
Wallace- to a five year 47 milion contract

Thoughts abouts the amounts of each player
And should we try to sign all three .
And or if thats to much or not enough.

Yes, we should sign all three, IMHO.

Okafor to 67: Looks a little much to me. If we can convince Emeka to 55-60 level, we'd do a good job. But he'll try to get max.

Wallace to 47: Just the fair number, I think. Not so much, not so little.

Carroll to 25: If some team offer him that 25(MLE), then we'd match it(I know he is unrestricted). But I guess we can tie him for 20 mils/5 year deal.

Okafor looks a little high to me two . And Wallace looks a little low to me .
Does any one think Okafor is worth that much more than Wallace.

I think Okafor has a better chance to get big money. We've been able to scrape by and get a few wins here and there when Crash has been out of the lineup at different times this season, but when Emeka was out for that stretch, we were clearly the worst defensive team in the NBA, and were fortunate to get the wins that we did.

You're right. Good big men with defensive skills and post moves are hard to find. We did adjust, but it took a while to do anything right with Okafor out.

Most definetly Okafor. Hes of much more value to us than Crash. Dont get me wrong Crash is great, but a player like him is easier to replace than a shot blocking Center/PF. we also have no depth at the big spot... while we have Ammo, Herman, And both andersons that can play SG/SF. None are as good as Crash, but thats way better for depth than whats after Okafor. I still think both will get fair contracts and both will stay and we wont have to worry about losing our best two players.

My Prediction:
Okafor gets the big contract to stay and Wallace gets offered a bit over fair amount (read: 52-55 mil for 5 years)and if wallace gets a max deal somewhere else (thats the only reason hed leave) Carrol gets the 16 mil 4 year offer and is offered more somewhere else so he leaves. i just got a feeling Carrol is the odd man out on this roster at the end of the year and leaves for more money.

We could just sign Okafor and draft a three and save a lot of money . Crash gets hurt a lot what is your thoughts about just leting crash walk . The team might have more money for the fucture,. Do you guys even think we have the cap space to sign all three . What about a free agent signing do we need to look into that . thaoghts
