Blazers president Miller says Portland ready to sign Aldridge
Monday, August 17 | 1:56 p.m.
Portland Trail Blazers president Larry Miller briefly discussed
contract negotiations with Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge on Monday
following a team press conference in Longview, Wash., at Mark Morris High
School. ...
According to Miller, negotiations with Aldridge are ongoing.
"We're going through the process," Miller said.
"It's just a process and it takes time."
However, Miller was more direct when asked if the Blazers
have an ideal timeline for signing Aldridge to an extension.
"We're ready," Miller said. "We'd do it right now if we could."
Portland must reach an agreement with Aldridge before Oct. 31 or
he will become a free agent following the 2009-10 season.
Several messages left last week for Arn Tellem, Aldridge's agent,
and his assistant were not returned. According to a Wasserman Media Group
receptionist, Tellem is on vacation this week.
Aldridge, who started 81 games and averaged 18.1 points and 7.5 rebounds
for the Blazers last season, is set to make $5.8 million this year.
A $7.6 million qualifying offer has been set for the 2010-11 campaign.
It is expected that the Blazers will eventually sign Aldridge to a
multi-year contract extension, but not at the maximum amount such as
Portland guard Brandon Roy recently received — a five-year deal reported
to be worth more than $80 million.
Roy said he thinks the Blazers' ability to re-sign Aldridge is extremely
important.
"I'm excited that I'm finally done, but now it's time to get LaMarcus
signed, because I think he's a huge part of what we're trying to do,"
Roy said. "I think he's a future all-star for years to come. I think LaMarcus
is a big part of my success on the court, because there's a lot of things that
he does to free my game. ... I'm excited with getting LaMarcus done and
getting him happy, that way we can continue to move forward with all the guys
we have."
