Free Agency Tracker 2015 

Post#1 » by PassWarden » Wed Jul 1, 2015 3:17 am

Alright guys, given the nature of this particular free agency period I thought it would be helpful to make a thread to show what team has been linked to certain players. I'll be posting confirmed news as it comes in.

I'll keep it bland for now until we get confirmed reports of signings and more concrete news (Woj bombs).

No worries, I just know that a lot of information can get lost during this time of year.

So, being a Cats fan, if we strike out with the bigger names and Millsap, Carroll and Green, would you sign Derrick Williams or no?

Depends on the number.
Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Honestly hard to say... He was such a monster in college, and I would like to attribute that to the fact that he played the 4 almost exclusively in college. With that being said, he has shown very little promise at the pro level. I would take a flier on him, worst case scenario he continues to bust. But on the off-chance he does well here, he could make Markieff expendable.

I had no idea he was even considering Boston. He's an interesting fit there, a penetrating guard like IT bodes well for his production though.

Except that he was hurt by Olynyk and thought it was intentional. That might not help their case.

Good. Now he has enough money to hire me as his best friend.

Hey bwgood, just let me know if I need to consolidate those twitter links on the OP. I imagine there will be plenty more to come, and I don't want to slow anything down here.

And that may be the first real domino to fall, expect more deals like that.

Memphis doesn't strike me as a team who sees the need to sign one of their own at midnight, I'd expect a deal tomorrow. They both know where they stand in each others eyes.
