What a coincidence. Guess who's listed on the Pacers' summer league roster? Reggie Hamilton.

Now, if your fellow Chi doesn't outshine Tyler Hans little brother, at least, your scouting cred is trash.

He's one of two brothas in the back court, no excuses.

u do know HE IS THE LEADING SCORER IN THE NCAA don't you?

With or w/out Nash, sources say, Raps will keep trying to trade for Kyle Lowry. Raps talked deals w/HOU at draft. Still want him either way.

Eh..He is just another body that will have 5 fouls to give. Hasn't shown anything of being worth the second pick and is clearly a bust.

Hmm, interesting. Was very inconstant with MN, and showed flashes of what he could be. Not as much money as I thought he would get but a good signing for the Suns, who have completely remade their team.

I COULD see this happening, but I don't think it will at least util HOU sees if NY will counter their offer to Lin.

 

[Mask]

I think Houston waits on Lin....


The Suns are putting a nice young team on the court this year.


Thabeet can take Nazi Mohammad's spot, if thats anything.

Not real mad at this... at least we didn't break the bank on him and this deal still makes his ass easy to move...

Suns Looking For Veteran Point Guard, Plan To Meet With Felton
Jul 04, 2012 9:35 PM EDT



The Suns are looking for a veteran guard who can help fill the void left by Steve Nash.
To that end, Raymond Felton is expected to visit Phoenix on Thursday.
Phoenix would rather not start first-round pick Kendall Marshall next season.

I don't see why Felton would sign unless he is ok with coming off the bench his second year. Would seem like to right place for Kidd though, but he wants to be on a playoff team.

So what the fuck are the Bobcats going to do with all the guards they'd have if/when they bring in Dragic?

Dragic just agreed with the suns for 34 mil

Ramon Sessions won't return to the Los Angeles Lakers, source close to situation reiterates. He wants a starting job. He'll sign elsewhere

 

[ScottyPiffen745]

The Suns cleanin' up ain't they? Dragic, Gordon and Beasley

 

[Johnny_2_Clips]

Hmm, that is puzzling. Why would Dragic sign with the Suns if he's looking to be a starter and they JUST drafted a Marshall to be their PG of the future..?

they dont want to start Marshall his first year

 

[ScottyPiffen745]

Scratch that, the Hornets say they going to match Suns offer for Gordon

 

[Johnny_2_Clips]

I know that, but if he shows to be ready in his second season then they'll start him. The reason why Dragic chose not to stay in HOU, was because he felt like they wanted Lowry as their starting point guard.

Scratch that, the Hornets say they going to match Suns offer for Gordon

In a way, I can see why because they gave up CP3. But Gordon has made it clear that his heart is in PHO. And we see how things are playing out with the Magic dealing with their own player who's heart is somewhere else...

NEW YORK (WFAN) - The Knicks added 29-year-old journeyman forward James White on Wednesday.

White was playing in Italy over the last two seasons and signed for less than the veteran’s minimum of $1.4 million dollars.* The New York Times later reported White signed for $854,000.

Previously, he made stops in the NBA with the Indiana Pacers,* San Antonio Spurs,*Houston Rockets and Denver Nuggets.

He was drafted by the Portland Trail Blazers 31st overall in the 2006 NBA draft, but the 6’7″ White has only played 10 career NBA games.

He played for the University of Florida before transferring to Cincinnati after sitting out one year.

 

[conspiracy Bro]

Rumor is Kidd was offered a multiyear contract by the Mavs and plans to stay. The other rumor is Felton agreed to the Knicks offer already. Now they should look for a S&T for a SG.

The Rockets have been actively trying to trade Lowry the entire offseason. Lowry and McHale do not get along. So why would he think that the Rockets want Lowry to start when they're trying to get rid of Lowry. Dragic is leaving because of money.

Gordon will be matched, even though he wants to go

Beasley, not a good pick up. Talented, but a tweener who's immature.

Hmm, that is puzzling. Why would Dragic sign with the Suns if he's looking to be a starter and they JUST drafted a Marshall to be their PG of the future..?

Dragic also shared time with Lowery

I hate Nelson. I looked for details, they must have gotten him cheap. I hope.
