All the sauces said he wanted eight figures. Oh well. Hope his second go around in Houston goes better. Maybe he'll fluster Kevin Durant enough to send him back home.

@WojYahooNBA: Washington would love to replace Ariza with free agent Luol Deng, but only has the mid-level exception to offer him. He's seeking $10M-plus.

If Ariza settled for less than is reported, maybe Deng does, too? The Heat can/will beat anything the Wiz offer, though.

Otto had 25 in summer league today. Nothing to get excited about but he looked like doodoo last year.
