    I like how Rosen doesn't give in to the hype and call LeBron the best.

    I think Phil is going to give Adam some serious burn in practice and pre-season.

    Kobe loves the kid, tried recruiting the Lakers to get him.

    If Phil can't get him to work, no one will.

    Yeah, I think that if Sasha doesn't regain his shooting stroke, Adam could be a good replacement as a bench scorer. He needs to improve lateral movement though. He's fucking slow.

    I would still prefer trying to find another minimum type of guy to replace Powell. I mean we know he's not really much as a player so it can't hurt.

    I'd still love another backup for Kobe, hopefully some ring chaser comes up.

    Grant Hill!!!

    Boston is eyeing him. If LA doesn't get him, then I hope he just re-signs with PHX.

    I think New York will offer him the most money? He should take that deal, he won't win anything in Boston or Phoenix.

    Getting him in NY would be ok. Just as long as he doesn't sign with a contender. If Boston gets him, then they'd be super strong.

    He said his wife is a pop singer, it'll help her as well if he goes to New York.

    Hill can only take the vet minimum from Boston.

    Hopefully he is all about the money.

    They're only offering the vet minimum? That's good!

    NY and PHX can offer more, yes!

    I think it's between Lakers and Celtics if no injuries occur.

    But thing is, LA hasn't expressed much interest in Hill.

    Naw. He'll go to NY.

    They've offered him two different contracts.

    One is 1 year, 3 million I believe. The other is 3 years, 10 million.

    Hill actually played all 82 games last season. As long as he's not asked to play huge minutes, I think he'll be good to go.

    He probably has about 2 seasons of productive and healthy basketball, so I think it's cool. Hope LA can get him for a chance at a title with the vet min. But it ain't happening.

    GO NY!
