David west decided to to the Pacers for 2 years 20 million instead of the celtics.

This is going to fucking suck once Billups signs with Miami

Barea to Twolves! Good news because the Knicks were pursing him!!

Clippers just submitted deal to the League for CP3

D12 wanted S Jax &/or M Ellis RT @WindhorstESPN: D12 cites GM Otis Smith refusal to take trade ideas for trade demand: Dwight Howard of Orlando Magic cites poor relationship with GM as reason for trade demand - ESPN

RT @ESPNSteinLine: J.J. Barea's four-year deal with Timberwolves, first reported by @daldridgetnt, is valued at $19 million


And then small market teams complain about not being profitable!! Barea is good but IMO is overrated

 

[Utahbullsfan]

Free agent Jamal Crawford is expected to receive an offer from the Timberwolves "very soon," according to a source close to the 31-year-old shooting guard.

The Nets, Bulls, Knicks, and Pacers are also reportedly in the mix.

The source added that director of player personnel R.J. Adelman, who is heading up the effort to sign Crawford, made it clear the Wolves view him as a perfect fit.


Another bonus for the Bulls keeps him away from the Knicks

Sources say in addition to Bledsoe, league asking for another pick from Minny. Stern is trying to make this impossible.


WTF Paul is not as good as what Stern is trying to get out of him. This shit is getting ridiculous.

 

[Crystallas]

The more that I see Dwight pushing the franchise around, the less I want him. He's going to screw himself here soon, and regardless of how good he is, the fans are going to hate his ass. By minimum, he is becoming a huge locker room concern.

Melo was more stubborn, but Melo, IMO, handled this with 100x more class.

The league is a joke. After all of this the superstars are still trying to demand everything to the T and even a guy like Billups who was just amnestied is making demands. Seriously, how is this league any better than it was a year ago?

It's not.. Stern is making the league look like shit as he's the GM for all the teams.
