Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
Free agency is a lie!
The players are never free.
It should be called expensive agency.

Am I the only one who thinks PJ Tucker is getting 8 to 10 a year?

He's a good role player. But, there's no way in he deserves that much.

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
With Marcus Smart, who Ainge drafted to start at SG, and James Young I think Bradley is a realistic target.

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
Great defender, can defend multiple positions. Good rebounder for his size great shooter, 39% from three and plays multiple positions. With how much money teams have I see a 3y 27m type contract for him.

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
Hope: Greg Monroe - I've heard Detroit is going to do what ever to re-sign him though
Likely: Andray Blatche, Darren Collison
Hopefully not: Any pg to a long contract, especially not Isaiah Thomas.

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
Thad isn't bad but last seasons stats over inflate his value, there are plenty of other better options.

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
I'd love to see Neil go after Lance Stephenson just for the entertainment value.
The bitchfest at S2 would be legendary.

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
Dafaq are you smokin-- entertainment value of us bitching is no joking matter.
He's quickly climbing up the ranks on my list of most annoying players. His teammates and fans all hate him-- the only guy who seemingly can tolerate him is Larry Bird. Would be a horrible idea.

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
I want Neil to pursue in this order:
1. Bradley -- LA should assist in recruiting because of the UT connection
2. Pau
3. Vasquez
4. Sergio -- as a long shot to get back into the NBA, but this obviously is not dependent on this July 1 thing.

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
Lolol. I think I've pitched enough. Doesn't look like he's leaving Miami though. Can't blame him.
Avery bradley, Shawn marion, vince carter sound good to me.

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
Jordan Hill is my first pick, I think we might go after Kaman for the Bae or a PG, I would not mind trading CJ/Claver/Wright for Thad Yound from Philly

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
Bradley is an RFA so we would risk tieing up money with him and Boston could match, he is also very injury prone and has very limited PG skills, I am unsure on him. The comments below taken from a Boston article:
"Bradley has been in the league four years now and the only one in which he even approached playing the full schedule was 2011-2012. It should be noted that was the lockout shortened season with only 66 games on the slate. Bradley still didn’t play in all of them.
First, it was his shoulders. Then it was his ankles. Now it’s his Achilles. Next, it will be something else. He missed 32 games last year as a result of the shoulder maladies that struck in the Celtics' 2012 playoff run to Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals, a postseason he could not finish. This year, he’s already missed 19 games thanks to the ankle issues, with his status for tonight's game and the remainder of the season in doubt after he aggravated his Achilles and missed the second half of Monday’s loss to the Chicago Bulls.
That Bradley’s ongoing health woes have cropped up yet again may seem like no big deal given that there are only eight games remaining on the Celts’ schedule and they aren’t going to the playoffs anyway. But when you are about to hit free agency and you can’t stay on the floor, your value, both to your current team and any other potential suitors, takes a hit."

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
I would like a defensive specialist off the bench. I know our scoring off the bench was shit, but sometimes defense creates good offense.
Having a bench player able to shut down perimeter players would be a godsend

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
There is a lot of cap space out there that is going to keep us from signing some of these targets listed in this thread.
I guess some of you are hoping for sign and trades.
Monroe will get 12 mil minimum
Frye will get 7
Deng will get at least 10
Not sure what Marvin and Stuckey will get. Possibly MLE, but I bet just a little bit more.
It is going to be interesting for sure to see if Neil waits to see whats left after the frenzy, or if he shows love to someone within our price range and strikes quickly. I would not wait.

Re: FA starts in 24 hrs.
I think we need another ball-handler/creator.
When Mo was injured it was obvious we were only good enough with both Lillard and Batum on the floor but even with just one of them we were already in trouble.
Mo is a good ball handler but creates mostly for himself, Lillard not being a natural distributing PG and not having a SG who can really initiate an offense is compensated by Nic's Point-forward abilities, but still, our biggest need is another PG type player, especially if Mo doesn't re-sign.
I think Shaun Livingston is the best affordable option.
