Detroit Pistons <u>Protected</u> Chucky Atkins Chauncey Billups Richard Hamilton Darko Milicic Mehmet Okur (Assuming that he resigns) Tayshaun Prince Ben Wallace Corliss Williamson <u>Unprotected</u> Elden Cambell Hubert Davis Tremaine Fowlkes Darvin Ham Lindsey Hunter Zeljko Rebraca Bob Sura I don't know who the Bobcats would want, most of these players are nearing the end. Some of them are worthless.
Utah Jazz Protected Greg Ostertag Andrei Kirilenko Matt Harpring Deshawn Stevenson Carlos Arroyo Raul Lopez Raja Bell Aleksandar Pavlovic Unprotected 1. Keon Clark (Utah aren't that high on him) 2. Jarron Collins 3. Ben Handlogten 4. Mo Williams 5. Curtis Borchardt 6. Michael Ruffin Keon Clark and Mo Williams would be the players that the Bobcats ate most interested in. The rest probably don't have a chance of being singed.
<u>Cleveland Cavaliers</u> If today... LeBron James Carlos Boozer DeSagana Diop Dajuan Wagner Tony Battie Zydrunas Ilgauskas* Eric Williams - FA Darius Miles* 1. J.R. Bremer 2. Kevin Ollie 3. Bruno Sundov 4. Ira Newble 5. Jason Kapono 6. Kedrick Brown This will change for the Cavaliers no doubt. Miles and Ilgauskas are as good as gone, and I am sure they would like to hold on to Kedrick Brown. The Cavaliers as of now have a 14 man roster, one below the active limit.
Insider <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Wave:</div><div class="quote_post">Just letting all of you guys know, there is a new article on ESPN Insider which takes an in-depth look at the Bobcat's possible lineup.

Sixers.... protected: Allen Iverson Derrick Coleman Eric Snow Samuel Dalembert Kyle Korver Willie Green Kenny Thomas Glenn Robinson Unprotected: Aaron Mckie Greg Buckner Zendon Hamilton Marc Jackson Todd Maculloch Amal McCaskill John Salmons
Pacers: Protected: Jamaal Tinsley. Reggie Miller. Jermaine O'Neal. Fred Jones. Ron Artest. Jonathan Bender. Al Harrington. Jeff Foster. Unprotected: Scot Pollard. Austin Croshere. Kenny Anderson. Jamison Brewer. James Jones. Primoz Brezec. Anthony Johnson. I Think, They Will Pick Austin Croshere, Because He Gives Them Shooting From The Perimeter, And Rebounding, At The Sf&PF
Denver Nuggets Protected: Carmelo Anthony Andre Miller Marcus Camby Nene Voshon Lenard Earl Boykins Chris Andrersen Rodney White (Hopefully) Unprotected: Jon Barry Ryan Bowen Fransisco Elson Mark Pope Jeff Trepagnier Nikoloz Tskitishivili Out of those, you gotta take Jon Barry.

Reminds me of Darko something...
I'll do Orlando since when sportsrock did it it was way different.. Protected players: T-Mac Drew Gooden Tyronn Lue Juwan Howard Keith Bogans Steven Hunter Zaza Pachulia Grant Hill Unprotected Players: Reece Gaines Andrew Declerq Pat Garrity Desmond Penigar (10 day contract today) Sean Rooks (FA end of season) DeShawn Stevenson Rod Strickland (FA end of season) If I was the cats GM depending on what's missing I'll pick Reece Gaines , he was really good and still hasent show what he can do in the NBA. Another guys are Pat Garrity , great shooter , and Deshawn Stevenson depending on how well he does he might get protected even tho I'm not sure if he will be a Free Agent next season. EDIT: Let's change DeShawn Stevenson to protected players since we've seen what he can do maybe having Stevenson and Garrity for Hill and Zaza or Hunter...
The Cavs - The Deadline has pasted, so now we know what the roster will be. Here's what I think. Protected Players: LeBron James Tony Battie Jeff McInnis Zydrunas Ilgauskas Dajuan Wagner Carlos Boozer Jason Kapono DeSagna Diop Unprotected Players: Kedrick Brown Kevin Ollie Ira Newble J.R. Bremer R B-B Free Agent: Eric Williams If I were the bobcats and this was what I had to chose from, I would probably pick Kevin Ollie. If not Kedrick Brown, maybe Ira Newble.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting mustafa_shakur:</div><div class="quote_post">If I were the bobcats and this was what I had to chose from, I would probably pick Kevin Ollie. If not Kedrick Brown, maybe Ira Newble.</div> Doubt they'd take Kevin Ollie, not with four more years left on his deal.
updated suns: Protected: Leandro Barbosa Joe Johnson Casey Jacobsen Shawn Marion Zarko Cabarkapa Amare Stoudamire Maciej Lampe Jake Voshkul Unprotected: Jahidi White Howard Eisley FA: Antonio McDyess Keon Clark (suns should resign after draft) Not Yet Signed: Milos Vujanic Eisley is probably not the best veteran pointguard that will go unprotected. Jahidi White isn't very saavy but he is as close to a Shaq-buster as the league has (so some western powerhouse should trade for him). The Suns are very lucky they can sign Vujanic after the draft. I bet Sacremento has the most to lose in possibly losing Doug Christie Also, who out there thinks they have players their team would pay to ditch?
I have made a list of Players to Protect, Players not to Protect and Unrestricted FA's for every team on my Website. Memphis has the hardest choices to make, no Unrestricted FA's on their team.
for Tmac_ownz magic, I'll take stevenson over lue and I wouldn't protect Juwan, so that if Bobcats take him(not sure who to protect though), his salary is off our cap and we'd have 6 million more to spend this offseason.

I would be extremely surprised if they took Howard unless the Magic really made it worth their while.
