Source: Celtics to Offer Sheed 2 yrs, $11.6 Million

Via Mark Murphy of the Boston Herald:

According to the source, the Celtics are willing to offer Wallace the
full $5.8 million mid-level exception, but were only planning on
offering the 35-year-old a two-year contract.

Murphy also reports the meeting between the Celtics and Wallace is one of several meetings the big man's camp is organzing with potential suitors, i.e. the Cavs and Spurs. The question is, will either of those other teams be willing to offer Rasheed a third year?

For those on the fence about Wallace, WEEI.com's Paul Flannery makes a case for 'Sheed.

ESPN.com's John Hollinger doesn't see big dollars in Big Baby's immediate future. Here's a line for his live chat this afternoon.

Is Big Baby Davis
going to see any real money? He had a good, not great playoffs and is
still a small yet overweight 4? Or am I underrating him?

real money? No. doubt he even gets mid-level. More like three years, $10 mil.

Now that's a contract the Celtics can match.
