Teams going for the future crown should contact the Bulls about rookies Daye, J. Johnson, and Buddinger

Or Portland, about our various young guys (Jrue Holiday, Taj Gibson, Gerald Green, Alexis Ajinca, Hamed Haddadi)

Stop stealing our ideas!

Bulls young players have easier to pronounce names and don't include Gerald Green or Kendrick Brown

Yeah, but our guys have mad hoppage!

(Kedrick Brown might not be such a bad idea for your team.  I hear he's doing great things in the D-League.)

The Blazers sign Adonal Foyle for their Day 2 free agent.

IIRC last year the Day 2 started at like 8 am the next morning, not 1 minute after midnight(.... cue Iron Maiden!!! well, 3 minutes late ) to give everyone a reasonable shot at adding a FA if they need one.

I also think it's kinda "odd" that POR with 78 players under contract with a combined 1,204 years of NBA miles experience on their team would:

(a) have already signed 2 FA's
(b) have their second one be ANOTHER old man (Foyle). Guess Shaq's gotta have someone to go to the Sizzler early bird buffet with.


I understand drafting 18 guys, then looking to deal them in packages for better players (as the MAGICS are also doing), but hoarding more guys seems not really in the spirit or the best interest of the "league".

Just my $.02

Interesting too, that the CrotorNats have added YET ANOTHER member of the 2008-09 champion Orlando Magics.

In related news the Magics will be making their cuts mostly likely on MONDAY morning (we are working on some deals first).

We pledge, that the only way we'd add a FA to our current roster size is by first cutting someone else.

#15 and #16 picks in 2009 NBA draft are available for a future team.

As their day 2 free agent the DC Boxers sign Goran Suton.

You're certainly entitled to run your team as you want to, and Portland will do the same.  Obviously, we have fairly different draft strategies, and I'm sure that will continue into free agency.

The Cleveland Cavaliers sign

Shan Foster

Nuggets sign Almond, Morris

Boxers are listening to offers to upgrade their rotation.

Starters:
Joel Przybilla, Luis Scola, Gerald Wallace, Stephen Jackson, Raymond Felton

Rotation:
Darko Milicic, Travis Outlaw, Wally Szczerbiak, George Hill

Bench:
Aaron Gray, James Singleton, Kris Humphries, Anthony Carter, Tyronne Lue, Pooh Jeter, Goran Suton

I am focusing on upgrades at my rotation positions at C, PF, and SG.

I have an excellent backup PG to make available in trades in Anthony Carter.

People looking for starting PG know that George Hill started for SA last year during Tony Parker's injury and played remarkably well. He can start now.

I have a young, athletic, long defensive minded PF in James Singleton that got a lot of run in Dallas last year as well as Kris Humphries, a promising young PF who's PER has steadily increased every year. He has excellent per 40 numbers and Dallas plans on using him a lot this year as a high energy guy. He is going to be one of those surprise late round/free agent pick ups this year, I know it. Kid has a PER close to 17.

Tyronne Lue is available and steady if unspectacular.

I am looking to upgrade my backup SG by trading Wally(one of the better 3 point shooters in the league) and another player for that upgrade.

I am looking for a backup PF or C or PF/C and will package my young PFs and maybe Darko plus others for the right player.

Any deal you make with him, I can beat.


Despite all that positive info he has provided about his players, he (like everyobe else) is short on the most important ingredient to a big time trade on this site.













Scali.   

Look at the trade forum.  Scali names comes up more then any other NBA player. 


And only one team has Scali to offer.


The Nuggets.
