What has he done in the NBA to be talked about like he's better than a guy like Haslem who nearly averaged a double-double this year?

I wouldn't spend more than the MLE on Udonis, personally. Then again, I wouldn't waste it on Stromile Swift either. If I'm the Bucks I don't overpay Haslem to bring him to Milwaukee and blow the cap space they have on a below average starting PF with little unfilled potential. Don't get me wrong, Haslem is a nice player, but he doesn't deserve to be paid that type of money. I'd look to spend my money wisely on a big name if possible, and if not keep the money until next summer. It's not like adding Haslem does anything other than make them a contender for a lower seed in the East next year. I'd look at the big picture more if I were Milwaukee.
