Cavaliers hoping LeBron can trump $22 million more Bucks can offer Unrestricted free agent shooting guard Michael Redd is scheduled to visit the Cavaliers this week, possibly as early as Wednesday.Sources say the Cavaliers made Redd a five-year, $72 million offer when free agency began last Friday. The Bucks also made him a six-year, $94 million offer - the maximum allowable. The fact that Redd and his agents, the Poston brothers, didn't immediately accept the Bucks' hefty proposal gives the Cavaliers hope. However, very seldom in professional sports do players leave $22 million on the table and sign elsewhere. Both sides are hoping Redd makes a decision sometime this week. But sources indicate he'll likely wait to see what the Bucks do with their coaching vacancy. The only known candidate still in the running is Cleveland native Flip Saunders.When the 6-foot-6, 214-pound Redd does visit, both LeBron James and Eric Snow are expected to be part of his welcoming party. If Redd decides to re-sign with the Bucks on July 23, the first day free agents can sign contracts, the Cavaliers might make a lucrative offer to SuperSonics guard Ray Allen. He's still negotiating with Seattle, which supposedly hasn't budged off a five-year, $75 million offer. The Cavaliers are also trying to re-sign center Zydrunas Ilgauskas, who reportedly wants at least four years guaranteed, maybe five. The Cavaliers' original offer was for three years and under $10 million a season, a source said. Years could be more of a problem than money with the 7-3, 260-pound Ilgauskas. The Cavaliers are reportedly not interested in a sign-and-trade with Z. Other than Atlanta, the other teams interested in Ilgauskas are armed with only the $4.9 million mid-level exception. The Cavaliers might be willing to pay almost twice that figure. The Cavaliers also reportedly made calls to Bulls restricted free agents Eddy Curry and Tyson Chandler. One report said the Cavaliers want to save at least $6 million in cap space to outbid other teams that have only the mid-level exception to spend later in the summer. Several very good players are expected to be forced to play for the mid-level this season. 好好招待客人啊!! 如果大Z硬是要长约的话,就让他走吧!! 拜托千万别跟他签长约啊! 他年纪也不小了又有伤 --
