The counter Batum's agent has is to not sign anything offered by Portland or anyone else.

Brooklyn has reached agreement on a 4-year, $61 million max deal with Brook Lopez, league source tells Y! Sports.
Orlando did a bad job of building around Dwight. They were doing fine for a minute but then they started bringing in a bunch of shooters and overpaying them.
Orlando has made some of the worst signings and trades in the league the past few seasons.
@WojYahooNBA
Lopez is expected to sign deal tonight, and thus, the Dwight Howard pursuit is officially over for the summer.
So he Will play out the QO year?
Dear Dwight David Howard, You're a bi*ch.
signed, salty nets fan
kinda hard to build a team with your star player is threatening to leave.
it causes gm's to make snap/ in the moment decisions that arent necessairly the right ones.
orlando was in da finals just a couple years ago
consistently makin da playoffs and being a top team
still were a solid team dis year despite his crying
once dwight howard wanted to start acting like a gm,
the team was doomed
mutherfukka didnt even go to college
nikka is just a follow fashion
nothing wrong with orlando at all
I'm still not buying that Dwight got the GM and Coach fired...
As for all that other stuff that still falls on the owners and GM's. Sometimes it's best NOT to listen to your superstar when it comes to signings.
