Raptors interested in Nerlens Noel

The Raptors will need to move at least one big deal to have any hope of retaining both DeMar DeRozan and Biyombo, and teams will call about DeMarre Carroll.Toronto has already approached Philly about a deal sending out a rotation player — perhaps Terrence Ross, and other goodies — in exchange for Nerlens Noel,who could then assume Biyombo’s backup center role, according to league sources. The talks haven’t gained much traction yet.

In the past three years, the Pistons and Blazers have beaten the market with aggressive deals for Jodie Meeks and Al-Farouq Aminu right after the midnight opening bells. Given the glut of cap space, team executives expect more insta-deals for second- and third-tier free agents.

Teams could offer these sorts of deals both at tipoff, as well as when free agency dies down in mid-July, when GMs with leftover cash are looking for that last-call hookup. The players’ union is even encouraging guys to sign contracts that decline over time so they get as much cash up front as possible, sources say.

If Cuban have a gray off season and Riley stumbles...that would be some shit




In a radio interview yesterday, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com said that the Dallas Mavericks will be getting the first meeting with Whiteside when the clock hits 12:01 a.m on July 1st. He noted, “It’s not like the Mavericks have had a ton of success in free agency recently,” which just points to the fact that Mark Cuban is on the edge of his seat waiting to make a big splash this offseason.

Warriors Interested In Pau Gasol, Joakim Noah, David West, Timofey Mozgov

JUN 28, 2016 6:07 PM


If the Golden State Warriors are unable to sign Kevin Durant in free agency, their plan is to retain Harrison Barnes and try to sign a proven big man as well.

Pau Gasol, Joakim Noah, David West and Timofey Mozgov are all possible targets for the Warriors.

Golden State would also like to retain Festus Ezeli.

Out of those four, Noah makes the most sense to me.

Actually for me I'd go with TMo

Actually for me I'd go with TMo

I was thinking him too, but I like Noah's mobility, court awareness, defensive mentality, and toughness for the Warriors. He can do the same thing Bogut can do and even better in a lot of spots.

Man Noah breaking down, that's why I said they should pay Andy, and Fez and roll the dice on Marvin Williams for the 3 slot....

That would give them defense with shooting at the sf slot...while keeping capable centers

Whiteside is going to the Lakers or Trailblazers.

Adrian Wojnarowski: Sources: As 12:01 AM nears, free agent Hassan Whiteside’s focus is centered on Miami and Dallas. Decision could come quickly on July 1.

[THE DRIZZY]

I knew they would.

After his play in the playoffs, I am glad my Bulls did not. I vouched for Barnes hard all season to. I would rather have Micheal Beasley instead.
