Kevin seraphin

[palangi]

With all the signings that the wizards have done lately in bringing in bigs. I would sure like to see us cut ayres and offer this kid the mle.

The MLE?! Are you insane? We could grab him for a fraction of the MLE if we want him.

If Baynes doesn't re-sign I'd be interested in seeing if the Spurs could turn Seraphin into an NBA player. He has skills, but has thus far failed to put them together.

[DJR210]

Didn't he just sign somewhere?

KS signed Washington's qualifying offer so he's staying put.

[LakerHater]

one-year $3.8 million with the Wiz

According to one blog, "Kevin Seraphin is by no means an exceptional NBA player, but Friday he did something that only 16 others have done since the implementation of rookie scale contracts in 1995: hesigned (http://www.hoopsrumors.com/2014/07/seraphin-wizards-qualifying.html) his qualifying offer. Usually, the one-year qualifying offer (http://www.hoopsrumors.com/2013/05/qualifying-offers.html) is a mere placeholder for negotiation between a team and a restricted free agent, a vehicle for the club to retain its right to match offers from other teams. Still, a few players have gone ahead and taken the qualifying offer out of a desire to hit unrestricted free agency as soon as possible. A larger group among the 17 who have signed qualifying offers did so because there was no better offer on the market, and presumably Seraphin is among them.

I honestly think Washington might have forgotten that the QO was still out there. Once the "rush" was over, they should have rescinded. They could have signed him cheaper, I think.

I'm glad they didn't, though. He'd be worth a look next summer, when we have like 5 ending contracts.

I saw a bit of him on Inside Stuff last season and he's got a lot of toys and gadgets. I could be wrong, but it just looks like he likes to play around quite and bit and doesn't seem like he works hard enough on his game.

That is certainly what I've witnessed. I started following him a couple of years ago and he seems to have regressed since then. He might flourish in a strong culture under good coaches like the Spurs have though.
