Free Agent Rumors Thread

All teams are doing interesting deals in the free agency except the Jazz!

Anthony Morrow should have been in our radar.

Ya I think more people will be voting for Heat next year. I have always liked Wade. I hope he can come back healthy and be effective.

They should go after Ekpe Udoh. He is an underrated big guy. Offense sucks but he can rebound and block shots pretty well. All they need from him. Let Bosh and McRoberts start. Have Udoh come off the bench.
Maybe go after Mo Williams.

And they are going after Deng also.

Mo Williams - Napier
Wade
Deng - Ennis
McRoberts - Haslem
Bosh - Udoh

They won't be contending or anything but respectable 4 - 6 seed.

Again just random thoughts. I do think Udoh is underrated.

That team will contend for the 1-3 seeds in the East.

Whoa! You like Wade. I thought everyone had enough of his whining to officials and never running back on D. More importantly the fact that he isn't that good anymore.

Young wade was one of the greatest finishers I have ever seen and although some of his later antics are deplorable, they can't change what I saw early in his career. He was absolutely incredible.

Every player seems to whine. I just like Wades game in general. But when players wine to refs consistently I can't stand it. Every once in awhile I get it.

I just hope he gets in better shape and is healthy. Don't like seeing players careers end too early but his seems to be in that direction.
 
Not sure if this has been mentioned but Lebron only signed a two year deal. It would make my millennium if he bolted the Cavs in two years.

That would be epic, but he did it so he can cash in on a new 5 year max once the salary cap keeps going up and the TV contracts get added. No conspiracy theory here. He's really concerned about his legacy. Leave again, and he'll be the most hated player in the NBA. I'm surprised that there hasn't been more negative backlash for how he forced Miami's hand and basically left Bosh and Wade holding a bag of flaming poop by heading back to Cleveland. Bosh made out alright with a new max deal, but Wade is going to lose money because he opted out to make things work.
 
The wizards picked up Paul Pierce, which is a super good signing. I think they'll be a top 4 team in the east next season.

Why? Morrow is just a nice piece to have as a backup. WE have young backups already, We need to decide IF we have starters who can play and IF we have decent rotation players. We're stocked with question marks right now.

1. Burks, Exum and Burke. Can Burks be a legit starting SG? Can Burke EVER be a reliable shooter? Is Exum going to develop into a starting PG, SG or be a great combo guard off the bench. Does Exum develop a shot? In any case, I think you have to give these three 30 mins each. So just scrub minutes for someone like Clark or JLIII. Or, if Hood merits more mins at SF, then Hayward can still play some of his minutes at SG.

2. Hayward, Hood. Despite his cold shooting tonight, I like what we've seen from Hood. Have no doubts he should get the backup minutes behind Hayward

3. Big man rotation: Kanter and Favors get 30+. Gobert should get 20. Novak 10-15. Work in Evans as needed.

Simply isn't time for anyone else barring injuries. Save the $8.5M in cap space for a deadline deal. By then, we'll have a good idea if one of the starters needs to be upgraded or if the Jazz just need to get a good 6th man and add a likely top-10 pick in the draft next year.
