Re: The 2013 free agency thread.
The Kings are reportedly considering giving Andre Iguodala a max offer, which would also mean they likely wouldn't match the offer Tyreke Evans got from the Pelicans, according to ESPN's Raj Sharan.

we should definitely inquire about hansbrough if the jefferson deal falls through. i have always wanted to have a feisty bulldog type in the frontcourt bench rotation.
Hendo and Hansborough on the same team?

The weirdest thing is that they could save themselves millions by simply watching the games!, we as people care more about a bunch of rich people's money than they obviously do.
Can't wait for the 2016 lockout/Green

Re: The 2013 free agency thread.
No way we sign Smith. Resigning Henderson, adding Smith with Gordon. Hell, we would have a 13 million $ third stringer. Ridiculous.

Of course the Bucks have interest in JR. We'd be outbidding them. No thanks. They'll probably offer JR 4/50 and hope he pans out.

Damn. I can see MKGs agent already circling this deal and framing it. "Son, become an elite wing defender with a good jump shot, and this is what we shall get"

Re: The 2013 free agency thread.
Change of culture statement by the new owner. Rumor that Tyreke to NO might turn into a s&t that nets SAC Vasquez & RLopez. Add McLemore & Iguodola to Cousins with new coach Malone and things are smelling much sweeter in Sacto.

Not sure why Pelicans do that. They know they aren't going to match that deal AND sign Iguodala. They should call Kings bluff get Evans outright and try to send Vasquez and Lopez elsewhere for other pieces.

Re: The 2013 free agency thread.
pelicans do it to save money.
kings possible lineup: vasquez, maclemore, iggy, cousins, lopez. not half bad. could be a playoff team in a year or two with a few more key additions.

They're trying to trade for Rudy Gay, who's barely a difference-maker when you're talking about wins. By the sounds of things they're trying to make a run at the playoffs. Still Gay would plug a big hole.
