BlueDevil Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Jul 05, 2009 9:54 AM EST Having lost out on Hedo Turkoglu, the Blazers spoke with David Lee's agent on Saturday. But Marc Berman reports that the Blazers are not prepared to sign the Knicks' restricted free-agent to an offer sheet using their cap space, for concern that they would be tied up until July 15 at which time the Knicks might match the offer. The Blazers have about $9 million of cap room. Trevor Ariza with the Rockets, and Ron Artest with the Lakers, have each agreed to contracts at the mid-level exception. It could be that for Lee to earn more than $6 million per year, he will need to be part of a sign-and-trade deal. http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/60346/20090705/blazers_not_ready_to_sign_lee/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
