dallas mavericks chasing both joel przybilla & hasheem thabeet really makes me question their vision at center. really: http://es.pn/KMihqv

Sam Amick ‏@sam_amick
First the Perry Jones "gamble," now Hasheem Thabeet? Source says Oklahoma City is the most likely landing spot ...

Re: Ridiculously Expensive Agency

Asik is the 66th ranked free agent according to Hoopshype!

Chris Mannix for SI has him ranked 24th, which is far more realistic.

Asik is a specialist, but a very good one. 66th is silly. Even 24th might be too low.

Probasketballdraft ‏@Probballdraft
Agents all across the league are watching Brooklyn closely and waiting to pounce if DWill leaves. The Nets will be overpaying somebody. >>>>>>>>>

My guess would be Dragic.

 

[Draco]

The Nets are like the 2001 Knicks, so desperate to win now they grossly overpay for over the hill veterans. Even with DWill I don't think that roster has any chance of contending. Gerald Wallace, Joe Johnson, Jason Kidd? Thats not going to cut it.

Fred Kerber ‏@FredKerber
#Nets one time high radar target Ersan Ilyasova drawing interest from Bucks, Cavs, Raptors, Spurs

yup, kinda meh

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

If I were them I'd go after Dragic and Gordon.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

well to be fair they want to get jj for scraps, not cap space

 

[jlprk]

Maybe this has been posted, but Flynn's agent says 5 other teams are interested.

Aaron brooks is a RFA.

Marc J. Spears ‏@SpearsNBAYahoo
Nuggets agree to re-sign guard Andre Miller to a three-year deal, sources tell Yahoo! Sports.

3 years?!

 

[VanillaGorilla]

I think expecting there to be good to great free agent deals is a flawed expectation. I feel like the only times there are good deals is when a player's production unexpectedly rises the season after signing the contract.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

3 years for Dre? 4 for G-Dub? WTF is going on?

 

[BrianFromWA]

the rest of the league thinks McScribbles stunts his players, as well.

Not bad. But your window is aging quick and expensive. And nowhere near as talented or experienced as Boston's crew.

 

[illmatic99]

Bucher:

Sources: Chris Kaman visits with Pacers tomorrow. Solid, affordable alternative to suddenly über-pricy Roy Hibbert.

Marcus Thompson ‏@gswscribe

Warriors Begin Talks for J.J. Hickson

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Hell yeah, Indy. Kaman is YOUR man!!

 

[RR7]

Asik, then kaman makes me think they are scrambling,.and not matching. At least what I want to think.

 

[illmatic99]

TBH, I'd rather have Kaman at a reasonable price than Hibbert at 4yrs/ 58mil

 

[3RA1N1AC]

whats reasonable

 

[illmatic99]

Around 8mil/yr?

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

They are scrambling for a backup plan.

Or it could all be a smokescreen.

Kaman sucks

 

[craigehlo]

Why would they need a smokescreen? If anything it sends a negative message to Hibbert.

 

[BrianFromWA]

the only message they need to send to Hibbert is a "thanks, we're matching" or "have fun in Portland."

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Why would they need a smokescreen? If anything it sends a negative message to Hibbert.

The Debbie Downer in me tell me that.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

Around 8mil/yr?

i think he will get 4/40 at least

Kaman is bad and getting worse. We could snag an All-Star C at the top of his game and give up only cap room. That would go a long way to erase the bad taste of the Oden debacle from the fanbase.

I hate kaman. Would be fine at 5m a year but above that id rather give it to Hawes if we lose out on hibbert.
