    Is there a chance they could still sign Ezeli? Are they just trying to send a message that he needs to come down on his price? Is there anyone left who really needs a center and is willing to pay 9 million a year? Would he sign a one year contract with Blazers?

    1 year 5 mil for Hibbert is a great deal for the Hornets.

    Why don't the Blazers go after Dickey Simpkins? He's a FA.

    Here is a Dickey Simpkins highlight.

    Well.... they traded for Rose.

    Jennings sucks. He barely played off the Magic bench.

    Noah is washed up. He was constantly injured last season.

    Lee was a joke last season. He barely played for the Celtics.

    Are those guys supposed to be big signings?

    Not big signing...and of course they traded for Rose....during this free agency period. It just the level of activity and accomplishment versus activity and little accomplishment.

    That lineup wins the championship in 2010.

    And it looks like we are losing.... Kaman an Roberts is all. I seriously look around at all the signings and I don't see a lot of teams outside of GSW that got significantly better, maybe Boston and Memphis, but a lot of teams got worse.

    Cleveland might get better if they land D-Wade.
