Another Day in the Big Baby Saga

Via Marc Spears of the Globe:

The teams believed to have interest in Davis are Boston, Detroit, Utah, New Orleans, and Portland. Hamilton (BBD's agent) met with Celtics president Danny Ainge in Las Vegas yesterday, but Davis was not offered a contract. If he were to sign an offer sheet from another team, the Celtics would have seven days to match it.

According to sources, the Pistons have been trying to clear salary cap space to make an offer to Davis. Detroit and New Orleans might need to offer a sign-and-trade deal to make a run at the Baton Rouge, La., native. Although the Jazz announced last night they will match the $32 million offer sheet signed by forward Paul Millsap from the Trail Blazers, they are also expected to trade forward Carlos Boozer, which would keep the interest in Davis alive. If Millsap’s offer sheet is matched by Utah, Portland’s interest in Davis could grow.

But ESPN's Marc Stein has Detroit going another route:

It's believed that the Pistons, as of Thursday, have Rasho Nesterovic and Chris Wilcox ahead of Drew Gooden as their next free-agent targets, since it appears that they can't assemble an offer sheet rich enough for Glen Davis to keep the Boston Celtics from matching.

What if an offer sheet never comes? Danny will have to make a move at some point, right?

The first week of free agency was enjoyable, the 'Sheed signing and speculation about lots of names. Now there appears to be tumbleweeds blowing through the offices on Causeway Street.
