~*~2013 NBA Season Thread - Playoff Are Here ~*~

Re: ~**~2013 NBA Offseason Thread - Free Agency begin July 1~**~

I hope the Cavs build a playoff team under the current CBA just so they will have to break up his young up and comers because of what Dan Gilbert fought hard for. That would be justice for this bullshit current CBA.

Exactly the dumb ass cac didn't have the foresight to see he would fuck himself in the long run

All those dudes worth their talent gonna leave Cleveland regardless

Rockets Don't Plan To Grant Omer Asik's Trade Request
Jul 07, 2013 3:42 PM EDT


Although Omer Asik has formally requested a trade, the Houston Rockets have no plans to grant his wish, according to sources.

Shortly after Dwight Howard committed to signing with the Rockets, Asik requested a trade from Houston.

The Rockets have turned down offers and plan to continue doing so.

"With Omer, he had a great year for us last year and really became one of the top centers in the league," Kevin McHale said. "It's just when you have an opportunity to get Dwight, it's hard not to. I'm sure Omer right now is a little down in the dumps, but we'll pick him up."

Sources: Carlos Delfino to join Bucks
Updated: July 7, 2013, 8:47 PM ET
By Marc Stein | ESPN.com

The Milwaukee Bucks have agreed to terms on a contract with free-agent forward Carlos Delfino, according to sources close to the process.

The Houston Rockets were forced to waived Delfino on June 30 to ensure they had sufficient salary-cap space to sign Dwight Howard.

The Bucks swooped in to strike a deal with the rugged Argentinean swingman worth a guaranteed $6.5 million in the first two seasons -- $3.25 million per year -- and containing a team option in Year 3 that potentially increases the value of the contract to more than $9 million.

When the deal is finalized Wednesday, Delfino will join guard O.J Mayo and center Zaza Pachulia as the Bucks' new arrivals via free agency.

ESPN's Chris Broussard contributed to this report.
