    First the Perry Jones "gamble," now Hasheem Thabeet? Source says Oklahoma City is the most likely landing spot ...

    Agents all across the league are watching Brooklyn closely and waiting to pounce if DWill leaves. The Nets will be overpaying somebody. >>>>>>>>>

    My guess would be Dragic.

    The Nets are like the 2001 Knicks, so desperate to win now they grossly overpay for over the hill veterans. Even with DWill I don't think that roster has any chance of contending. Gerald Wallace, Joe Johnson, Jason Kidd? Thats not going to cut it.

    If I were them I'd go after Dragic and Gordon.

    Nuggets agree to re-sign guard Andre Miller to a three-year deal, sources tell Yahoo! Sports.

    3 years?!

    I think expecting there to be good to great free agent deals is a flawed expectation. I feel like the only times there are good deals is when a player's production unexpectedly rises the season after signing the contract.

    Not bad. But your window is aging quick and expensive. And nowhere near as talented or experienced as Boston's crew.

    TBH, I'd rather have Kaman at a reasonable price than Hibbert at 4yrs/ 58mil
