    And here's my thing. Their team JUST came off winning 73 games and they claimed that they were the greatest NBA team in the history of mankind. Now all of a sudden, a lot of their "fans" are begging KD to join them. What's the matter Warriors "fans," you don't have confidence in your team?

    So how many of the top 10 free agents will actually change teams besides Howard? Not too many.
    Michael Thompson called it yesterday when he said 5 usually beats 4. So far he looks to be right.

    Magic with a solid move.
    Have a lot of money to spend, but can't sign anyone? afraid you're going to do something desperate and stupid?? sign Jeff Green for a 1 year contract today and avoid being the butt of jokes on twitter and amongst your peers!

    At least we aren't Dallas, they're panicking and offering Wade 20 mil a year for 3-4 years.

    Did Miami seriously offer DWade 10 mil this year after he took paycuts the last few? No wonder he's shopping around

    It's a great move. Sign a player who's very naturally talented but inconsistent and hope he puts it together. If he can't then you only have him signed for one year anyway.

    Payton/Fournier/Green/Ibaka/Vucevic backed up by Augustin/Herzonja/Gordon/FA Center is a playoff team in the east.
