u will need more than 7 million a year to sign mcdyess.  the nuggets traded him
because they were not willing to resign him.  he will probably get at  least 100
million over 6-7 years, or whatever garnet got.  i do think that we could get
ratliff, which would be great.  would much rather get him than geiger for all the
stated reasons (younger, cheaper, more athletic, better shot blocker).
