That Hickson deal is a fucking bargain. Solid 4 or smallball 5. Young, and can get you double digit points and boards.

Love the pick up but who is going to replace Iggy.

Erick Green is about to get thrown into that fire.:smh:

I hope he starts. I never understood why he is always on the move. This guy is nice.
 
Re: ~**~2013 NBA Offseason Thread - Free Agency begin July 1~**~

Is Boozer almost 3 times better than him?

Cuz he makes almost 3 times his salary?
 
Re: ~**~2013 NBA Offseason Thread - Free Agency begin July 1~**~

The Atlanta Hawks and Milwaukee Bucks have held discussions in recent days involving sign-and-trades of Brandon Jennings for Jeff Teague.

Larry Drew, formerly head coach of the Hawks and now with the Bucks, would like to acquire Teague.

The Hawks would have to give up their pursuit of Monta Ellis knowing that the backcourt pairing has already failed to yield positive results.

Chris Kaman to sign with Lakers

Chris Kaman is headed back to Los Angeles, this time with the Lakers.

The Lakers announced their intention to sign Kaman, a 7-foot free agent center who spent the first eight years of his career with the Clippers, in a statement released Monday.

Terms were not disclosed, but sources with knowledge of the deal told ESPN's Marc Stein and Ramona Shelburne that Kaman agreed to a one-year contract worth the Lakers' mini mid-level exception amount of just under $3.2 million.

Prior to Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak's announcement, Kaman also confirmed the agreement on Twitter:

I like it.... Jennings has been inconsistent and Ellis can flat out score. Teague would be a good fit with Ellis and Mayo. Delphino is back and Sanders is a good big. Hopefully if we move Jennings...Ellis would consider staying.

Easy fix for those dudes

It's a 82 game season

41 games home and 41 on the road

During the season they can rent a condo in the downtown arear near the stadium for the season

And during off season get the fuck out of there and go to your real home during the off season

I think thats actually what most of them do. NFL players to.
 
Re: ~**~2013 NBA Offseason Thread - Free Agency begin July 1~**~

one thing I notice about free agency this season


Only one restricted free agent was signed to an offer sheet this season. Tyreke Evans.

Now this could be due to the new CBA where teams have 5 days to match the offer of an restricted free agent or lose him to the team that made the offer.


Now this is big because Brandon Jennings has yet to be signed to an offer sheet. Reason??? Imagine a team like Dallas signs him to an offer sheet. that means the money is tied up for a week. So they could miss out on potential free agent while THe Bucks can swoop in on the last day and match the offer and Dallas has nothing to show for it in the end.

If this is the future for restricted free agents things could change and some players might actually think twice when rejecting an extension coming off their rookie contract.

Then again it could be the market of restricted free agents as well.

We will see what's the deal in 2014 with cousins, george and others

I see no difference in extending the offer sheets and waiting on these divas to make their decisions every year even though they already know where they are going
