http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Basketball/NBA/Toronto/2004/06/30/520611.html The Raptors have made a qualifying contract offer to Morris Peterson. "Yes, we've done that already," Raptors general manager Rob Babcock said when asked yesterday about Peterson's contract status. The qualifying offer is for one season and is worth $2.4 million US. This doesn't necessarily mean Peterson, a four-year Raptors veteran, will be back with the club next season. It just means the Raptors at this point aren't prepared to let Peterson go for nothing and are keeping their options open as to either retaining him or using him in a possible trade scenario. The NBA deadline for making qualifying offers to restricted free agents, such as Peterson, is today. By doing so, the Raptors have a right to match any contract offer Peterson receives on the open market. Big man Robert Archibald is the Raptors' only other restricted free agent. However, Babcock said the Raptors have not made a qualifying offer to Archibald, which means he'll become an unrestricted free agent when the NBA's official free-agent negotiation period begins tomorrow. The Raptors' attitude toward Peterson's return may be tied to other roster moves they're pondering. And if the Raptors ultimately don't want Peterson back, they can rescind the qualifying offer, as long as Peterson hasn't signed it already. Two summers ago the Raptors made a qualifying offer to Keon Clark but they didn't really want him back. When the free-agent market dried up and the Raptors got worried Clark might actually accept the qualifying offer, it was pulled off the table and Clark became an unrestricted free agent. 这文章的大意是... Babcock 给了MoPe Qualifying offer 这个暑假Raps可以Match 任何其他队伍给Mope的offer 只是这并不代表Mope就一定会回Raps 另外一个restricted free agent, Archibald 却就没有收到这个 也就是说他成为了unrestricted FA --
