So KOC said that he wants an "athletic shooter".

So who makes the list of possible and realistic "athletic shooters" we could acquire via trade of FA?

I got... Marcus Thornton, Eric Gordon (if we get in on a CP3 deal to Clippers), Kevin Martin (is he considered athletic?), Danny Granger, Iggy (Is he considered a shooter?), WESLEY MATTHEWS.... and that's everyone that I can think of off the top of my head.

Oh my goodness... one badly composed tweet and everyone goes crazy.

We're NOT going after Nene, we're in the hunt for Howard.

The apocalypse. The rapture. Whatever you want to call it... it's been pure insanity.

In other words, both are staying in PHX for another year before signing with the Knicks next year.

DeAndre Jordan might start at 10/mil a year. Guess that's why you draft big. Insane amount of money http://www.sbnation.com/2011-nba-free-a ... a-clippers

Kings to sign F-C Chuck Hayes to a 4-year, $21.3 million deal mirroring full mid-level exception, his agent Calvin Andrews confirms to Y!

always loved hayes work ethic, he's just the blue collared guy kings need to combo up with cousins. nice signing.

Awesome signing by the Kings. That team was absolutely starving for a defensive minded guy that doesn't need the ball on offense.

Ya, that's just crazy money for him.

Just again proves why the Jazz were right in drafting Kanter over Knight. Also proves that Jefferson has a lot more value than the GB believes.

Jefferson was traded for nothing, come on.

Why does everyone keep saying that thinking that it means anything?

It means absolutely nothing now! Jefferson was coming off a major knee injury before that trade was made. He has since put in a whole 82 game season. That alone changes his value by A LOT.

So please, for the love of God, stop referring to what the Jazz gave up to get him as any kind of indication to his current market value.

Reports: Utah Jazz and Earl Watson are "99%" of the way done with a deal.

Earl is coming back to Utah. Everyone can relax now.
