    Gary Washburn from the Boston Globe is the one reporting the finalized deal with Brandon Bass (still no terms though)

    So you guys all expect whatever that total $ is, is just for this year and then he's a FA?

    How's his D on Wheel Chair whenever they've matched up as opponents I wonder. I'd imagine he wears on guys some like Metta used to. Making the assumption here he's played SF defense some % of his career when needed.

    Bass is definitely not a SF and is definitely a PF.

    I expect it's probably 2/5.6 million which is the max you can get in the Room Exception.

    Oh. OK. That sounds good like maybe he's here 2 years. Would you expect there's an opt out one side or the other?

    I'd expect a player option if there is one.

    Basically everyone is trying to figure out if we've used the Room Exception on Bass or not. If we used Cap Space instead, then we have Room Exception left over.

    It's a solid move. I'm interested in the length of the contact. Hope it's more than 1 year...

    You're right, the link was broken. I just liked it for the picture, but yeah I'll wait until they post a working one.
