He's not a free agent?



He's tired and overworked atm? Don't care as long as we get him.

Extremely solid move (if money makes sense of course) they get a PG that wants to prove he's 100% healthy (thats all he rants about on twitter) and insurance on Rose.

I predict a 2 yr/24m

EDIT: WOW 1yr/5m :o :o :o :o

So sounds like Dallas is done spending cap space and Dirk gets the rest. Now we sign a wing with our exception and its about as good as it could be.

Hmm. I gotta say the Knicks have had one of my least favorite offseasons.

oh absolutely not. the noah money and years are risky, but love the rest, tho. clearly upgraded the PG position without taking longterm risks. Lee was a great signing and fit. we didn't give away melo, kp or any future picks. now lets resign lance and gallo (we have those 2 cap holds) and we're ready to go.

edit: and most important. a new coach not named kurt rambis.

They gave up assets for Rose which I would not have done and I hate the Noah deal. Lee is fine but doesn't outweigh the others. It's sort of like the Lakers where they tied up future cap space on mediocre older players.

Even after the Dalembert and JaVale experiments didn't work out here and knowing how much Rick Carlisle hates talented guys who don't really care to reach their potential, I still want the Mavs to kick their tires on this guy.

And imagine how scary this Bucks team would look with 2013 Larry Sanders on it right now?

Like the lee signing but rose for Lopez was average and the Noah signing is a disaster.

Well, Larry Drew was his coach, so I'm sure the Cavs have interest.

Yeah but Larry Drew was his coach so he might have zero interest in that again.

I believe it was Kidd that did not want Sanders on the team.

Anything on Waiters? Was a hot topic early on here in Sacramento. Haven't heard anything for awhile now.

Kobe Wade


Have a feeling a lot of agent smoke early.

And he will regret not taking a solid offer if one was available. We had something like this with Bonzi Wells back in the day, sure he was older etc, but did well in the playoffs, and declined some good money.

I'm expecting a whole lot less than the "rumored 18 mil" or whatever it was.

Wiretap has D. Williams as a target of the Heat.

That's a worthy gamble if you ask me. Guy is an athletic beast, could be on the verge of becoming a 3 point threat but not there yet.

They need to take a couple of chances here now and get it to work out.

Money though, how much is he worth to take a shot on?

He's interested in them or they're interested in him?

Because there's a big difference :lol:
