Free Agency 2012 Thread

[Former Member]

Dragic's younger brother is playing for Houston Summer League team.


Henry Abbott: Teams are still feeling out this new CBA. Could be that free agents are worth less than before -- making cap space more valuable.

I don't know what this guy is reading but I've seen a max contract to Hibbert, 10 million a year for aging Wallace, and C. Paul turn down a 3 year 60 mIllion dollar extension. Dwight and Dwill trying for a super team that may include Joe Johnson?

The CBA may hurt %80 of the players and 20 teams but it did nothing to stop the enivitable collapse of the NBA.

The players make only 51 percent of BRI rather than 57. The NBA is in good enough shape. Some of these contracts are ridiculous.

Just put it in GenNBA .. but Anthony Davis just severely sprained his ankle and is expected to miss Olympics. I'm putting it here as a time stamp .. because I'm ahead of the media on this ..

Bosh is out too. I'm thinking Favors is going to the olympics if you're right on this PKM.

Looks like the Celtics will hold onto Jeff Green

Actually, PKM is right.



It was posted on Hoopshype media twitters. Davis hurt his ankle in a workout with the Hornets.

Great, now Favors can go play with the big boys and learn how to be a whiney jerk to force a trade, or get recruited to join a super team in 2 years. Wonderful.

He'll be one heck of an expiring contract though.

It's going to be a mad scramble for teams to avoid the punitive luxury tax. Do GM's and owners really know what's going to happen? It appears they don't care.

George Hill has agreed to a 5 year deal with the Pacers.

They'll start caring when their owners get pissed off and start firing them.

David Aldridge: Breaking: Nets "very close" to acquiring Joe Johnson from Hawks for Farmar, Petro, Morrow, Williams, Stevenson and protected pick (Houston). Twitter

this is big. If the Nets land DWill and JJ how would they get D.Howard? It would only be by trade right?

I think it basically takes them out of the running for Dwight. But maybe I'm wrong.

@NBAnerd does this mean Devin Harris is worth a 6 year contract??

Wherever Dwight lands, he is going to have to do some major PR work.He has kind of painted himself in the corner with the Brooklyn Nets.
