    He’s not playing like a max player right now. And I do believe he would take less for us. My feeling is he’d sign with us for somewhere between $30-40 million per year but I guess that’s pretty obvious. Walter and company have deep pockets and will pay him what works for both sides.

    I don't know what his real value is yet, another playoffs run at 16pts per game, doesn't say near max to me. Austin has not proven to be a Kyrie or Jamal Murray, caliber player yet to me. We most likely need, another guy in the 30's, or two in the 20's...Still TBD.

    If Ainge offers Kessler and fill ins in a S&T for Reaves do you say no? I believe the Lakers would get the better picks in such a trade
