New Orleans... and Sacramento. I don't get it. No mention of Miami - but maybe they've been keeping tabs and don't need to meet with him. Cleveland I guess are happy with one gimpy big man.
 
Dallas got a full year to audition Mayo and decided to overpay for Ellis. While I agree that they have not been making the best decisions after the new CBA took effect, they are not a poorly run organization. I think OJ lacks the drive to be an elite player and the Mavs realized this.
 
League source: Metta World Peace has reached agreement in principle on two-year deal with Knicks

I don't know if they're a well run organization or not, but they've struck out A LOT, and are now taking on "poor culture" guys.

RT @Jonathan_Feigen: Camby bought out & Mike Miller waived; Rockets have interest in both. Part of strategy shift from prospects to win now

Camby would be a perfect player to back up Howard and play a little PF. AT PF, he could do some of that high post passing into Howard down low. Mike Miller is a dead eye shooter. He would be perfect too. Nice pick ups if they manage to get them.

Part of the reason that I posted that as well was to show that part of the reason they were willing to move Trob was for Howard but also because with that move they were shifting to win now and not develop. Trob was a good pick up for us and not a throw away as some think

Free agent center Sam Dalembert's deal with Dallas: two years, $7.5M, league sources tell Y! Partial guarantee for 2014-'15 season.


Well that sucks!
 
If only we had 3.75 mil available. We could have had him. That's very reasonable!
 
So who does Dallas have now?

Calderon...Larkin
Ellis
Marion...Vince
Dirk
Dalembert...Wright

Supposedly they are going to sign Harris for less money too. I guess that is a team that may be able to fight for a playoff spot, but they could just as easily go on some big losing streaks. If they are below .500 I wonder if they start thinking about trading away Dirk and rebuilding.

I would suspect Dirk would retire before being traded. It seems Cuban would at least finish him out. He seems like a really loyal owner.

OKC, Memphis are strong suitors for Mike Miller, who cleared waivers Thursday afternoon, per source. Miller played for Grizz from 2003-08.

ACtually that would be a good asset for Memphis. They have zero outside shooting.

Wondered why Memphis hasn't obtained any outside shooting this summer. They were waiting on Miller, who is perfect for them on the bench, as long as he can stay healthy.
 
It is too bad for Memphis they can't spend a lot on payroll as a small market team. If they could just somehow add a high-level 3 and D Small Forward, that team would be a brutal out in the playoffs.

They had to shed Rudy Gay's salary, but he wasn't that perfect fit. Inconsistent 3pt shooter, volume shooter, wants to slash, not playing defense. Not what they needed.
 
Sam Amick: The Nuggets are closing in on free agent guard Nate Robinson, I'm told. Denver offering bi-annual exception to land him.Could be done today.

Denver overloaded at the PG position . . .
