I am afraid you are right. If we match, we probably overpaid and with 9 mil upfront likely done with any other moves this year (aside from matching Fess). If we don't, we just lost good 3 players we had last year for nothing (in addition to losing Brew and Maynor last year). Not a good situation no matter how you slice it. What I think can savage it though is letting Porty have Wes and perhaps using that money for someone like Jefferson. We have to come up with something here. Just losing good players is not going to make the team any better.
Korver signs with Bulls! (3 yrs/15 mil)

This is the most foolisgh thing i have ever read from you...If they dont like to play with dwill well thats says something bout their work ethic..him,dee,and head used to be in the gym all the time at illinois..Gym rat..His former illini teammates loved playing with him..Do you just throw random crap in the air to get a response?
Not that you had a choice there. Good luck finding someone better, who is also affordable, for just the backup wing spot

I wouldn't have minded Korver back for the right price. Disappointed to hear we didn't even make an offer, even for something like 3 yrs, $4 mil per. It's not just losing Matthews and Korver for what they bring to the table, our top 2 wins are now AK and CJ. Both can play well, but can we really count on them for 75-80 games this year?
Sorry latercomer to this thread and have not read it and am sure somebody has already said it, but people like me who thought Korver would get at least 5 million from somebody were basically called idiots by others on this board. So who was right? Setting the league record for 3point percentage is going to get you some dough in this overpaid market.
