Brian Schmitz | Sentinel Staff Writer July 13, 2007 Looking to secure a future now tied to Dwight Howard and Rashard Lewis, the Orlando Magic will attempt to work out a contract extension with point guard Jameer Nelson this weekend. General Manager Otis Smith will leave today to meet with Steve Mountain, Nelson's agent, in Philadelphia. Smith thinks the club and Nelson can strike a deal, likely trying to extend Nelson for perhaps four years. We'd like to, sure," Smith said. "He's one of our key pieces with Dwight and Rashard. It just has to be at a number we can agree on." If Nelson doesn't sign before the season, he can become a restricted free agent, although the Magic can match any offer. "We look forward to the meeting and hope we can put something together," Mountain told the Sentinel by phone. Nelson doesn't have leverage on his side, coming off what Smith called a "subpar" season. But he likely will ask for a contract somewhere between the four-year deal for $24 million given to Seattle point guard Luke Ridnour and the five-year deal for $47.5 million handed to Chicago point guard Kirk Hinrich. A deal with Nelson will push the Magic over the salary cap, although they could try to trade players to create room. 也就是薪資約在年薪600W~950W間...看來今年真的是想show-hand了... 有需要玩那麼大嗎...? 冷靜阿.... --
