NBA Free Agency

Ya, I can't imagine there being more than one team worse than LA next year, they might just keep it again.

Knicks will be bad. Orlando will need a lot of improvement since Millsap went back to ATL. Philly gon' Philly. Charlotte gon' Charlotte. Kings gon' Kings.

[Split T]

All those teams besides Philly have more talent than LA. In fact all those teams were better than LA this last year. What's their starting 5? Clarkson-Russell-kobe-randle-hill. With young off the bench. That's bad, really bad. Knicks have a decent eastern team actually. Calderon-afflalo-melo-lopez. Not sure who their other forward will be but they might just be in the hunt for the 8 seed.

Well, the Knicks are ... doing things, at least. They've signed quite a few players this summer already. I like that Robin Lopez signing for them. He doesn't need the ball and can anchor their defense.

You forgot Derrick Williams.

Wow, I don't even know this guy's game. Is he really that good?

[TOO]

Nope.

[Split T]

He's kinda like Jamal Mashburn, hasn't shown ability to create for others though

if the clippers can trade for miles plumlee, they'll be fine.

Going from Jordan to Plumlee is a massive downgrade.

I know Chandler wanted to compete for a title. I wonder if the Suns would let him out of his deal to sign with the Clippers. He would be a huge addition on that team.

Portland and the Clippers are going to be much worse this year.

Brandon Bass signing with the Lakers.

[Wally_West]

Good pick up for them.

Cavs want to trade for Joe Johnson.

Brandon Bass signing with the Lakers.

I acually had Bass and Amir as 2 possible Suns targets. He's a solid player.

Doubt it. Chandler had to know the suns signing aldridge was no better then 50-50. If he plays well and the clippers hang in at the deadline we could deal him for expiring's and a pk.

[The Bobster]

Chandler is exactly the kind of personality this team needs. I'm glad they signed him.

If you want to create a culture, create on of being accountable and working hard. This is a start.

[Sunsfan4life]

I think the argument was Chandler doesn't want to be here because he thought we were going to get Aldridge. The Counter argument would be he had to of known it was a long shot and that it was a real possibility we wouldn't so he must be fine being a vet leading a team of mostly youngsters.

Is Darrell Arthur still available? He'd be a nice pickup. Add some much needed shooting.
