Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? Anyone have a list? Should be interesting to look at, I can't find one.

Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? Wow, Sam Cassell should get a nice contract after what he did for the Clippers. Chris Wilcox will cash in somewhere because he can put up Zach Randolph numbers with consistant playing time.
Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? You can forget about Ben Wallace as a FA, he's resigning with Detroit.
Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? Hopefully they don't break the bank on him, but they have no choice really.
Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? I really dont see this years crop of FA's beeing that deep. because I think the main guys will all re-sign. When I look at it, It makes me think that the main free agents everyone will be after will be Terry, Harpring, and Murry.
Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? Unless the mavs go after and sign Cassell...Terry won't be on that list either.I think the main difference with resigning him and why we didn't resign Nash, is his age, and Nash's defensive liability when he was here.

Ok let's figure this out. They didn't resign Nash two years ago. Nash is only three years older than Terry. That makes Terry only one year younger than Nash was when he wasn't resigned. Also I could be wrong here but last time I watched the Mavs Terry wasn't a defensive gem.I believe Peja has already said he is gonna opt out. I have also heard Cassell is looking to resign with the Clippers for 2-3 more years. And the Sonics have said that resigning Wilcox is their top priority this offseason.
Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? Well Peja's option is for $8,225,000, that seems like what he should be making to me, but I wouldn't be surprised if he chooses to opt out.

Nash, while only 1 year older at the time, seemed, by the Mavs brass, as a risky resigning, because they believed he got worn down throughout the season, and was worn out by the playoffs. This was because of his all out style of play.Like I said, the Mavs, hopefully, will have learned that they can't just let guys walk away...and they know Harris isn't ready to run the team.So like I said, unless they make run at Cassell, they will keep Terry.

Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? I could see Mike James, Joel Przbilla, and Fred Jones switching teams. James will go to Cleveland, Przbilla to Minnesota, and Fred Jones to Orlando.Just my predictions.

When he retires he said he wanted to coach the Clippers. So i would think he would stay the little time he has left with them.EDIT: What do you guys think Jeffries will do? I think he might be a good pick up if he doesn't want too much money. I can see him developing into a really nice player. I like his style of play and he can do a lot for a big man.I am kinda hoping the Cavs can get him.
Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? Cavaliers already have Snow and Jones, they don't have the money to sign James.
Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? Why would they want a guy like James when they have superstar in Lebron James? Seriously, James just dribbles the ball over, waits, and then chucks up a 3 pointer. He is a good shooter but he wouldnt fit with a team that had a superstar on their team.They should re-sign Flip Murray. That guy is a good energy guy. He can shoot the ball well and he can go inside and raise the pace.pg-Snow/Jonessg-Hughes/Murraysf-Lebron/Jacksonpf-Drew Gooden/Donyell MarshallC-Zydrunas Ilgauskas/Anderson VarejaoSnow can start at pg fine. They dont really need a superstar at point guard. Their offense is already good. They just need a smart, veteran plasyer who makes the right decisions and passes the ball pretty well. Thats Snow. Even though he is aging, he will likely start for the Cavs next season.
Re: Who are the NBA's FA's this offseason? Flip Murray would be a good signing considering Hughes has always had injury problems and Luke Jackson is a complete bust.
