Re: How much would you pay to re-sign Monta and Biedrins?

Biedrins, more like 25-35M
Anytime Biedrins is brought up I think of his God Awful shooting form so it has relevance.

With that said both are going to be overpaid IMO. Ellis is an awesome lil scoring guard but till he starts creating opportunities for his teammates from his lightning fast 1st step he'll just be a lil scoring guard best suited as a spark (a big spark tho) off the bench. I wouldn't be surprised to see a team go overboard with a huge contract just to steal him away regardless.

Biedrins could see a pretty big payday since decent young bigs with upside are hard to come by. If he didn't shoot like an awkward 12 year old girl he'd really be a hot commodity. Offering only 30M year sets the bar low enough for another team to come in and over pay the kid. Happens every year, at least he's young with potential vs the usual washed up big just putting up numbers in his contract year...
