Lee is a restricted free agent and only the Trail Blazers can afford to sign him outright. However, Portland doesn't appear willing to give him $10 million to serve as LaMarcus Aldridge's backup. The Blazers also believe that the Knicks would match a lower offer. Portland is interested in a sign-and-trade and has discussed scenarios with agent Mark Bartelstein. The proposed deals have included Steve Blake and Travis Outlaw. |
