Around the League, 2013 Offseason/2013-14 Season Thread

Knix trade for Bargs using Camby/Novak/2016 1st and 2 2nd's

CJ Watson signs 2 year deal with the Pacers

Pelicans have offered something like a 4 year $48 million deal for Tyreke Evans

Dwightmare continues, Golden State looking to entice him and LAL into a S&T, Houston offers eventual lux tax payments, a great fitting roster and second superstar and possible the assets to gain a Big 3.

Eric Bledsoe for Redick being discussed?

Oh yeah... and Chris Paul re-signs after Doc was acquired.

[vincecarter4pres]

My money is on Eric Gordon being shipped to Indy for Danny Granger and maybe a first as an immediate follow up move is Sacto declines to match Reke's gargantuan albatross deal.

Maybe with Greivis Vasquez(spelling?) thrown in and maybe something added from Indy.

I'd bet Granger/Hill/1st for Gordon/Vasquez.

Vasquez
Gordon
George
West
Hibbert

Kind of scary looking.

So JR Smith needs surgery... (Quietly goes to the Knicks board to read what they have to say about it without trolling)

I dont think so but he will bring intensity and energy and make the rivalry with us that much more exciting.

It was just a week ago they were filling that AK to Nets thread with "I can't wait til Lopez breaks his foot, KG and Pierce gets injured and they implode" posts. This is a classic example of why you do not say things like that. It can happen to your own team at anytime.

What's sad and scary is the fact they do not see the seriousness of a patella injury.

I don't wish injury upon anyone, even a big POS like JR Smith, Knicks fans should do the same. It's unfortunate this had to happen, but one wonders why the Knicks even gave him that contract in the first place. It's mind boggling.

Yeah I'm like a Patella tear is only taking him out of action for 3 to 4 months? The same injury that took Blake out for an entire season, same with Oden and Joel Przybilla and sidelined Bynum for around 6 or 7 months IIRC?

I'm sure there are different severity levels of the tear and all of those guys are big men, but methinks this is a lot more serious or will have him on the shelf longer then is being reported.

What's weird is that Isola said that the Knicks knew that the issue is CHRONIC and got WORSE?

If it's truly chronic, why are you giving him an MLE-sized contract with a team option in 2016 (not 2015 when most of their cap is freed up)?

If they really wanted to keep him, they should've got him for even less and used his injury as leverage.

[NyCeEvO]

In all honesty, it sucks when anyone gets injured for a significant period of time.

I wish him a speedy recovery.

Knix gonna Zeke.

He was big for them in the playoffs, this is purely a cost cutting move. It might come back to bite them.

Could their loss be our gain? We are shallowest at the 2 and we could use a strong perimeter threat. If we can pick him up it would be a fantastic way to round out the roster.

[EGarrett]

I wish we could start more topics like this rather than have them always moved into containment threads. It would increase the traffic on the board a ton.

I think anything is possible for Billy King at this point with the amount of buzz we have going. I think we could have Terry play full-time back-up point with Miller playing two-guard and Kirilenko playing the forward spots. We'd have pretty much everything we could need.

Yes Please. Miller would be the last piece we need to make this team extremely versatile. You can roll with a lineup of Terry/Miller/AK47/Teletovic next to Brook for floor spacing.

[HelloBrooklyn]

waive one of our scrubs and get this guy a contract!

[VCRJKidd15]

Not a fan of Miller but for a Vet min I wouldn't really care if he was added.
