I like Deng, he is older but he brings defense and is a good locker room guy. Would be a decent secondary signing.

Freakin' priceless!

I can't remember this many rumors before free agency even began. This is nuts.

Its what I love about these shorter deals from the new CBA. So much more movement and more good FAs

 

[riverman]

Why doesn't Lillard just bring a stick and beat up the free agent to show him who's boss.

That would be hockey..not hoops

 

[Chris Craig]

Nets have waived Jarret Jack...back up point guard?

 

[illmatic99]

Question to cap experts.

Is there such a thing as the Gilbert Arenas rule anymore limiting how much second round picks can make on their first FA contracts?

Does AC qualify for this?

There is, but the Blazers have full bird rights

 

[Chris Craig]

The Gilbert Arena rule applies to players with early bird rights, and I believe Crabbe is a full bird, so he doesn't qualify

 

[Natebishop3]

It's four hours until free agency and fucking rip city radio is talking about hops baseball. W.....t.....f

Come the fuck on dude. Nobody gives a shit about minor league baseball.

Yep. 3 years full bird rights. 2 years early bird rights

Yeah, early bird gets the worm, full bird gets cash money

Still one of the best tweets I've ever seen regarding the Lakers.

 

[Chris Craig]

Wow Lakers are in the big leagues

 

[Pinwheel1]

The Lakers will end up absorbing some contracts and will get some decent players that way. Just not great players like they wanted.
