@ESPNSteinLine: Says one rival GM with interest in one of this summer's most coveted shooters: "Hearing Korver to Brooklyn is in the bag"

Best realistic pick up available. Too bad we couldn't land Kirilenko. Maybe this means Toko will get some time?

Anyway, love having Korver too. Another player who's played with Deron and a reliable, fantastic shooter. Perfect replacement for Marshon Brooks.

Next stop, vet min pg?

Jose Calderon?

Great pickup if true. Blatche is the next priority, after that, backup PG and if possible, another wing who can play some defense.

It would be really cool if we could bring Stephen Jackson off the bench too. That would be an awesome addition IMO.

Hope that doesn't mean that Bogdanovic can't come over now. Did they give up on getting him here. I thought it was like 90 percent that he was coming over. I thought they had to use their mini-mid to get him. If they use it on korver what happens.

Also hope this doesn't mean that we lose blatche. We will need him to give kg rest.

Bogs isn't coming. This should have no effect on Blatche, he was always going to get the vet min.

The Deron connection. Now he would have no more excuses. Starting-caliber PF? Check. Prototypical SF? Check. Shooter? You got Korver.

If true... this is super great! Too bad this most likely affects Bogs as I read the explanations on this board.... really wanted to see this guy soon.

But Korver is awesome! finally a true shooter whether its of screen, catch n shoot or a KK3!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OP, why even ask the question "like/dislike" lol?

If true, this would be great news.

I've been pulling to get Korver for awhile now. As I've said before, I've tweeted D-Will and Korver on multiple occasions telling them that Korver needs to come here. :lol:

I really hope it's true.

Until an agreement is made in principle or any firm confirmation that Korver has been signed, let's relegate all free agent talk in the Offseason Thread. Thread will be unlocked if it happens.
