How much does Asik get paid this summer?
I don't like him but it's obvious we're going to try to keep him. After that Warrior series and his lack luster year I'm pretty sure his value is really low. Last year Gortat got 12 a year in a shallow FA for centers. This year The Free agency runs deep and I think we can keep him for around 4/40.
FA centers better than Asik and what I think they will get paid, and teams that would be interested.
Deandre- (Best rebounder in the NBA and is a great defender bring hustle to every game can score outside of a dunk.) Max Clips, Knicks, Lakers, Mavs, Suns, Celts, and Bucks.
Gasol- (Does everything you would want from your center.) Max Grizz, Knicks, Spurs, Lakers,and Mavs
B.Lopez- 4/60 (Would be near max but has healthy worries.) Mavs, Nuggets, Lakers, Celts, and Pacers?,
Monroe- 4/52 (Good on offense bad on D, young and room to improve so will get paid for that.) Blazers, Mavs, Lakers, Suns, Spurs?, and Pacers
Hibbert- 4/56 (Top defensive center but sucks at everything else.) Mavs, Suns, and Knicks
Chandler- 4/44 (Capable center but is getting older.) Blazers, Mavs, Suns, and Pacers?
Kanter- 4/60 (Great offensive center but terrible defensively. He's still very young so he will get paid due to his potential) Mavs, Celts, Lakers, and NY
R. Lopez- 4/44 (Capable center does the small things and hustles) Blazers, Suns, Knicks, and Mavs
Koufus 4/48 (Good defender decent rebounder and not a offensive liability and is still young) Bucks, Celts, Blazers, Pacers, and Suns
Asik- 4/40 (Elite rebounder but not as good of a defender as his rep which was exposed this year and is a absolute offensive liability) Suns, Blazers, Celts, and Pels
How much does Asik get paid this summer?
I would not offer more than 8 mil a year for Asik. I would give him 24-27 for a 3 yea deal. Hopefully team option in the 3rd year. I would have to think really hard or everyone is way out of price range to give him 9 mil a year. He is a one way player. I don't think other teams will even consider 10 a year unless they are desperate. I hope we get another center honestly...I just get so annoyed watching a 7 foot center get his shots/dunks blocked all the time by smaller players.
