Dwight Howard wants to be traded to the Brooklyn Nets but he knows it's unlikely. That's why he's exploring legal options to nullify opt-in


Fuck this guy

This is the time to really cash in on LMA. Next years draft would be ideal but if you can do a Harden/Ibaka type of deal you do it.

Yes, because a durant, westbrook and aldridge team will be totally beatable in the next decade. I guess build for after that????

With Chicago unable/unwilling(?) to deal one of Noah/Deng on draft night I think they will most certainly lose Asik.

Re: Now what? i.e. Free Agency

Sorry if I screwed up quoting somehwere, I was in no way saying trade LMA. I am saying trade our cap space, if we get no good signings, for someone's unwanted pieces, as mentioned earlier, and hopefully get a young asset in addition, to potentially be that young all star

Yeah I meant to quote someone else... I think your plan could be a great use of cap space and let us try again for a stud free agent next offseason. The Sonics once used cap space to trade Kurt Thomas for 3 picks in two different trades. But front offices are notorious for nearly always using cap space on the best free agent they can find, even if they'd be better off signing nobody.

Calderon will be an amnesty waiver. Depending on other signings that could be an intriguing guy to bid on. Much better backup then Nolan Smith!

Eric Gordon will visit Indiana Sunday, Houston Monday & Phoenix Tuesday. He will also meet with Portland & perhaps Charlotte & Dallas. Gordon, the New Orleans Hornets' restricted free agent, is seeking a max, 4-year, $58 million deal, sources say.

Re: Now what? i.e. Free Agency

That can't be right.

Re: Now what? i.e. Free Agency

What is the most we could offer Gordon?

We can offer the max. Of course, he would have to choose us, and then New Orleans would have to not match.

I could be wrong but I want to say the Quick said today that we would have 16.5 mil which is what Gordon wants. 4yr 58 mil

Guard Eric Gordon will visit the Indiana Pacers on Sunday, the first day of free agency, according to league sources.

Gordon, a restricted free agent with the New Orleans Hornets, will then visit the Houston Rockets on Monday and the Phoenix Suns Tuesday.

While Gordon hopes to make his decision before his first Team USA practice in Las Vegas on July 6, he also has a meeting scheduled with Portland on July 5 and he may meet with Charlotte and Dallas, sources said.
