Christ might make a difference, but only if he brings his miracle making and healing abilities.
I'm not sure what to make of Tyreke. Obviously it's an important year for him.
OK, continuing with the list, Marc Stein calls Darren Collison and Rodrigue Beaubois longshots to get extensions from the Mavs. Why might he think that? In the case of Beaubois injuries and inconsistent play have to be a factor, but more importantly, they want to have a better FA showing in 2013 than 2012. CP3 and D12 will both be FA's.
BTW, here's the article by Marc Stein I've referred to a few times.

Ty Lawson and the Nuggets are working on an extension, with Marc Stein thinking it will probably happen. The Nuggets have reportedly offered a 4 year $44 million extension.
Tyler Hansbrough is unlikely to get an extension from the Pacers. They signed George Hill to a 5-year $40 million contract, re-signed Roy Hibbert to a 4-year, $58 million contract, and will have to pay Paul George a ton of money in the near future. Hansbrough is easily the odd man out.
Austin Daye won't get an extension from the Pistons. The Pistons want to use their cap space since they haven't had any since they foolishly signed Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva back in 2009 (I think it was 2009). The fact that he hasn't shown a ton of promise thus far factors into this as well.
DeMar DeRozan is unlikely to get an extension. Stein says the Raptors want to be wowed by him before signing him to a long-term deal.
Toney Douglas is unlikely to get an extension from the Rockets, probably because he hasn't been great, this will only be his first year with the Rockets after coming over in the Camby trade, and the Rockets are still trying to figure out what to do with all of their young guys.
James Harden and the Thunder are talking about an extension. Obviously the Thunder want to keep him and Harden says he wants to stay with the Thunder. Of course, the serious luxury tax implications for the Thunder complicate things.
Given that working out an extension with Harden is the current top priority for the Thunder, Eric Maynor is unlikely to get an extension.

Stein lists Stephen Curry as probable to sign an extension with the Warriors. The sides are waiting until after the preseason games end to engage in serious discussions.
