    Nets will pursue Dwight for Deron

    That and there wouldn't be any guarantee either one of these players would resign with their new teams...

    Absolutely not. Watching Derek Fisher get burned by Chris Paul was frustrating to say the least, but watching Shannon Brown-esque shot selection from my lead guard all season long would bring the pain of several kicks to the crotch. The world would end and children would cry (in that order) if...

    I'll say this-- Brown is still fairly young at 25. Was he overexposed with the Lakers? Absolutely. But I do think he still has one or two years of upward potential left to expand his game, which is more than you can say about other options in the market like Vince Carter. And he did, after all...

    BKS probably won't like this, but I think Brown is a realistic option for the Bulls as a SG without a big financial commitment. Would not surprise me if he went there.

    Report: Nets and Pacers to pursue David West

    Can't say for sure where he may end up, but I can say he will more than likely be overpaid for considering his gimpy knee and age. If they are willing to make that sacrifice, I think West would be a good target for Indiana; he complements Granger offensively and provides veteran leadership on a...

    Parker nearly traded to Blazers

    Prophetic? Like I said, their depth in that position made either one of those guards expendable assets and they got a younger, complementary piece as a result. I personally thought and still believe trading Parker would have been the best decision and netted them a better reward, but the team...

    Ben Gordon Finished With the Detroit Pistons?

    Gordon 2yr/23mil left player option for 3rd Hamilton 2yr/25mil left Villanueva 2yr/15mil left player option for 3rd Gordon would be the favorite for amnesty, but you could really take your pick at either as you said

    Absolutely. Salmons was supposed to be that player, but he had a pretty horrible year last season. They had a logjam at the position with Maggette as well. They turned that into Stephen Jackson, the best player in the deal? Good deal for the Bucks.

    Parker being shopped.

    I think Sacramento needs any veteran leadership at this point. One of the main knocks against the Maloofs last season was that they were in the bottom tier in team salary, affecting both the product on the court and fans in the seats. I think this is a step in a nice direction, although...

    Red Sox May Consider Targeting Reyes

    What about the long term ramifications of Reyes with the Red Sox? Are they willing to sign him for an extended contract as well, considering he's a soon to be FA? His price tag might be too high, even for Boston

    Wolves to fire Rambis

    Rambis actually hosted a few post-game shows for the Lakers on FSN during their playoff run last year, suggesting he still had a healthy relationship with the organization. If he would have been fired sooner, I have no doubt in my mind he would have been named their head coach over Mike Brown.

    Parker nearly traded to Blazers

    I don't think so. The San Antonio rumors actually shouldn't be all that surprising. Even though they re-signed him last year, Parker has been an expendable asset because of the emergence of George Hill for about a season and a half now. Either one of them could be swapped, but trading Parker...

    Lakers, 76ers Discuss Iguodala For Odom Trade

    If you are the Lakers, where exactly do you put Iguodala? Do you start him, move Artest to a bench role, and run the risk of his volatile personality being unhappy? He's still. after all, under a near unmoveable contract for the forseeable future. Do you have Andre come off the bench and deal...

    Rumor: Love for Gasol

    They think that Rubio and Gasol would complement each other and would have good chemistry because they're both Spanish.

    Rumor: Love for Gasol

    According to PTI, the Wolves are considering trading their #2 pick and Kevin Love for Pau Gasol. Sounds like an interesting deal, what do you guys think?

    Report: Cleveland eyeing Rudy Gay

    Rudy Gay is a B+ player with an A+ contract. He's the most talented player on his team, but he's definitely not an elite player, super star, or perennial all star; yet, he gets paid Lebron James money. How do you figure that? I think players that earn max contracts have to fit that criteria, and...

    Report: Cleveland eyeing Rudy Gay

    Rudy Gay is on a 5yr/84 million dollar contract, which was criticized the moment the Grizzlies signed him and looks even worse now considering their playoff run without him. I think the Cavs are better off developing young inexpensive players, waiting to dump large contracts (ala Baron Davis)...
