    That the likeliest possibility is that Hedo is going to land to Portland for less than $10 mil. Most likely for the $8 mil we have to spend. He said its just a sign of the economic times in the NBA.

    But Orlando offered him 4 years, $35 million...just under $9 mil.

    Are you guys offering more years?

    Perhaps no one is offering more and he knows that Orlando won't give it to him anymore since they got VC?

    Bucher also reported that Ben Gordon will be signing with Detroit.

    So Orlando was negotiating with a free agent prior to July 1? Regardless, I doubt the credibility of this report.

    How much are the Pistons really gonna need Gordon? Rip, Stuckey, and Bynum eat up those minutes. Unless one or more of them are on the outs.

    I remember Sheed and Garnett always having mutual respect when they played agaisnt one another. I assume they are friends.

    Bucher says interested in Hedo and Andre Miller in a sign & trade. Says there's other players out there that they are interested in like Millsap, but that its a buyers market and will the let things fall in place.
