Steve Blake wants the full MLE
Quote:
Source: Blake Seeks $6 Million
July 5, 2007 - 3:51 am
Denver Post -
According to a league source, Denver free agent Steve Blake, who is reportedly seeking a full mid-level exception - expected to be $6 million - is not out of the Nuggets' reach.
The salary cap and the luxury threshold have not yet been set for the 2007-08 season. The Nuggets' current payroll is about $80 million. The 2006-07 salary cap was about $53 million, and the luxury threshold was almost $65.5 million.
Blake, who started at point guard for the Nuggets last season after being acquired in a trade with Milwaukee, is being courted by several teams. The Miami Herald reported Wednesday the Heat and Blake are discussing money, while the Los Angeles Lakers have reportedly cooled on Blake because of his price tag.

Guy was good once he went to Denver. 43%FG but 6.6apg, and a 3.2 A/TO ratio.

Not sure he's worth the full MLE but he'll probably get it from someone. If PHX doesn't land Hill I expect them to go after Blake. I think he'd be a good fit in their up-tempo offense and that would allow them to possibly move Marcus Banks if desired.

If I wasn't as high on Barea and Devin as I am, I'd be all over this dude. Nothing clicked for that team until he came over, and I watched plenty of Denver basketball, as I'm from that area. Really talented player. Will knock down the trey if left open, and is certainly a 6-8 APG kind of guy.

I think it is fairly well established that Adam Morrison is the worst player in the NBA.

I like Steve Blake, but the full MLE for him? I don't like him THAT much now, c'mon. He wouldn't even start here.
