Mr. Barbosa
We here have traded Courtney Lee so now there is nobody taking time away from you. You can start at the 2 guard and play your style. Next to nash dwight and kg we feel you can play your game without having to change a thing. We stick to our 2 year offer and hope you decide to come here.

New offer:

Year 1: 4,000,000
Year 2: 4,300,000
Year 3: 4,600,000
Total: 12,900,000

Join us in Dallas to form a great offense/defense duo with Lee at shooting guard, and be our leading scorer off of the bench seeing tons of minutes at PG and SG

Mr. Barbosa, sorry we're late to the party, but first we'd like to tell you that you were always on our radar and we'd love to have you on the Philadelphia Sixers squad. We value your ability to beat your man off the dribble, shoot the 3, and use your unmatchable speed on the fast break to beat defenders and finish at the rim. These qualities are what made you a great 6th man throughout the majority of your career, and they are exactly why we want you on our roster.

Leandro, you would be joining a roster of:

PG: Norris Cole
SG: Manu Ginobili/Marcus Denmon
SF: Grant Hill/Michael Beasley
PF: Taj Gibson
C: Al Horford

This is a playoff bound team, that is determined to make a deep run and try to compete for a championship.

We are currently in the running for the Jameer Nelson sweepstakes, to be our starting PG. Jameer compliments your game perfectly, as he will be able to space the floor when you attempt your blow-by drives to the rim. Manu would be the starter, but you guys would also see time together, as you can run the point, sparingly, and he can run the 3 spot if we want to go with a smaller rotation during a stretch of a game. Horford is a great floor space and finisher inside as well, so he helps you get easier buckets inside.

Mr. Barbosa, a bench with you and Michael Beasley would give us alot of firepower, with your abilities to light up the scoreboard and would make us one of the deepest teams in the NBA. Leandro, we'd like to offer you a 3 year, 16.2m contract (year 1: 5,000,000 - year 2: 5,400,000 - year 3: 5,800,000/PO).

Hope to hear form you soon,

Sixers co-GM, Saddler the Gr8

New offer:
Year 1: 5,500,000
Year 2: 5,900,000
Year 3: 6,300,000
Year 4: 6,700,000
Total: 24,400,000

We aren't messing around Mr. Barbosa, we want you to come here to create a fantastic SG duo that has would include a GREAT defender and a prolific scorer in yourself. With Manu on the sixers, the both of you do the same type of thing and Manu has been a 6th man scorer for most of his career. Here in Dallas you are the perfect fit and would be joining a team with a top 4 PF in Chris Bosh and a top 30 player in Luol Deng. You are a perfect fit here Leandro and we hope that you see that.

Leandro is floored by Philadelphia's presentation. He's very happy now that he waited to make a decision. The money on the table from the Sixers is just impossible for him to turn down at this point in his career.
