They're in even more disarray than the Knicks/Lakers show. Owner's a dipshit. Karl wants their best player out, leading to rumors of them potentially firing him before he even coaches a game. They traded a bunch of stuff, including picks, to clear salary space. And now, no one worth shit wants to go there for that money they can offer.

*pending DeAndre Jordan doesn't sign there. Why would he?
Right now, if the Knicks could convince Chris Dudley to sign with them they'd pass it off as "their guy."

This.
I fully expected them to get crazy and offer D-wade a max deal.

They can't dump it into him and have him score consistently, he has shown no back to the basket game. Maybe he just wanted to have a bigger role and not be the third wheel anymore.

Don't forget about Robin Lopez making $54 million. And he was what, their 4th or 5th big man option? It's literally "We have a lot of money and no one else to spend it on."

Heard Cavs getting in the mix for David West, sounds like a double negotiation ploy though.

Southwest Divison big men...

Dallas - Dirk and Jordan
Houston - Howard and Josh Smith
Memphis - Gasol (IMO, he re-signs) and Z-Bo
New Orleans - Davis, Asik
San Antonio - Duncan and Aldridge

Wow. Top 10 big men from the Eastern Conference don't even stack up to that. Love, Mozgov, Monroe, Gasol, Bosh, Milsap, Horford, Jefferson, Drummond and Brook Lopez?

Hibbert to the Lakers for what I am guessing is a Trade Exception.

Russell will lead the league in assist attempts and fewest shots taken for as many minutes he will get. Kobe, Swaggy P and Lou, Russell will never get the ball back.

KG re-signs with the T-Wolves. First player ever to play in his teens, 20's, 30's and if he sticks the contract out, his 40's.

WTFBBQ???? you gotta link?

EDIT:

Just found it. If he goes back to LA Cuban is going to be livid. I can't imagine what venom he'll be spewing. It already seems wierd that we have 1 week of FA before contracts can be signed. Can someone explain what purpose the week between offers being given/accepted and being able to sign them serves?

If he goes back to LA, so be it. I think it's absolutely stupid that we hear all this "so and so agrees to the deal" a week before they can actually sign the deal. It just sets teams up to have guys change their minds at the last minute. You're basically playing your hand and letting everyone else evaluate it for a week...
