NBA Offseason Trade/Free Agency Thread

They already have Marvin Williams. Why would they want Blatche now?

I see Williams as MKG's backup

 

Walker, Roberts

Henderson, Neal, Hairston

MKG, Williams, Taylor

Blatche, Zeller, Vonleh

Jefferson, Biyombo

He looked fine at center for Brooklyn last year.

I've also never heard him say he prefers power forward over center. Personally, I don't think he cares where he plays as long as he gets the opportunity to play.

 

He can definitely play C, as well as PF. Why wouldn't you want players who can do both?

 

That should've been your comment. 

 

His style of play suggests that he prefers forward over center. 

 

Peace.

For $7 mil, I'd be extremely surprised if Williams wasn't starting at power forward as a stretch four.

In circumstances where we want to go big, we can go with Walker, Henderson, Williams, Zeller, Jefferson.

I dont even know if this years team (as of now anyway) is better than last season's.

 

Teams in the East got better.

 

Cavs got LeBron, so they gon be in the playoffs regardless.

Wizards got Pierce to replace Ariza, that's kind of a upgrade.

ATL get Horford back.

 

 

Don't sleep on the Knicks neither, they re-signed Melo, plus they replaced Felton with Calderon. they still got Smith, Amare etc If they can stay healthy they will probably make the playoffs, last season was a mess for them, with all those injuries.

True, the more versatile the more valuable.

Guaranteed that he will be playing PF, primarily.

But if we sign Lance, Henderson would be a back up, how much is he making?

Lance or Henderson?

Henderson

[NCBoy1992]

I think Williams would be a better backup SF than Taylor

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Henderson

He'll make $6 mil this season.

He also has a player option next year for another $6 mil as well if he opts in (I'm guessing he will).

- Rumors abound that if Durant was to leave OKC, he would only be looking at Washington.

Translation:

Durant won't be a free agent for two more years, but ESPN is already oiling up the hype machine to push Durant to Washington.
