Now that the next phase of free agency is upon us, where do you think some of these free agents will end?
 



The Big 3 stays in Miami (but there will be friction).

Melo will head to Chicago (he knows he will be in the playoffs every year and respects Tibbs).

Gasol will go to the Spurs (if he thinks Kobe is a ball hog, wait until he has to struggle to get shots if he went to OKC)
 
Same thing I was thinking with Gasol Lol..KD shots dayum near more than Kobe..ask Kevin Martin...dude said KD is worrying about padding his stats LoL...
 
Avery Bradley getting 8million a year LOL...man what the hell is wrong with Danny Ainge

BB get in here!!!! and explain this crap LOL
 
Danny Ainge is paying for what Bradley is about to do "future" and not what he has done in the past. The same for raptors and Kyle.

Man Bradley isn't worth 8 million a year folk Lol..."future" or not, Danny was an idiot for that move

Kyle had one good year and dude is eating good...LOL...smh..
 
Gasol is either going to OKC, San Antonio or staying put. Wild Card team is NY. Phil has reached out to him apparently. I think Gasol will be the biggest winner free agent wise. Maybe not with the money. But he is getting hella interest from really good teams. I didn't realize he was only 33 and turning 34 in a few days. If the Spurs get him. They go back to the Finals for sure.

Melo is either staying in NYC or I think Lakers are the only team that can convince him to leave. Don't think his wife wants to move to Chicago. She might. But either the Knicks or Lakers. The Heat ain't going to bring Melo in. That was a pipe dream/rumor.


Lebron, Wade and Bosh are back in Miami. All this other talk is just talk to keep folks guessing. Riley will make sure things work out.

The Celts are in rebuild mode. Once they hired Brad Stevens as Head Coach, I knew Ainge was not serious about winning big just yet. Bradley's signing and the drafting of Marcus Smart probably signals the end of the Rondo era in Boston. He has another year on his deal, but I imagine the Celtics will trade him this year to try to get something for him before he can become a free agent.
 
Spurs need him, since Boris is a FA...

They need another hybrid 4 like Boris..not saying Pau is, but his back to the basket moves and 16ft range jump shot will help the spurs...

Yea I agree about Rondo moving on...Marcus Smart, I have to see how he will adjust to the NBA ball...he has summer games coming up and I'll be watching him...
 
Don't sleep on Phoenix nabbing a player or two either. We have plenty of cap space and movable pieces to make a great deal.
 
The Big 3 are all seeking max or near max deals. Unless that mindet changes, they won't be back in Miami.
 
Lol @ Wade wanting a max...I'll give that cornball 6-8 mill...dude knees are on Larry Holmes status...

as far as the suns..that's the team to watch out for...I heard that tried to send Dragic to the pacers though..

Phoenix ain't close to getting a championship. He might as well stay in NYC with Phil Jackson. Golden State is closer than Phoenix. So is Houston and Dallas. Even Portland.

Unless Phoenix plans to add Melo and Lebron then they will not be a threat with just Melo, Bledsoe and Dragic.
 
Paul Pierce may become a clipper...Clippers are in talks with a sign and trade deal with the Nets
 
The Big 3 are staying.

Let's start here: all is going well enough for Miami so far, if only because there are still no clear signs that any of the Big Three are headed elsewhere, and LeBron James, Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade still happen to be three of the four most accomplished players on the market. And all are still likely to sign with Miami, even if James would like something near if not at the maximum and even if Bosh's initial proposal to the Heat was in the five years for $90 million neighborhood, starting at roughly $15 million.

While there's a different report every few hours, about whether they are or aren't entirely on the same page, nothing should be taken all that seriously until one of them actually takes a meeting with another team. That hasn't occurred. James and Bosh haven't even been in the country, both vacationing with their families all week, and Wade has been traveling domestically for non-basketball matters.

Wednesday night, James posted an Instagram video of his son, LeBron, Jr., catching a fish during their island getaway, and it seemed like an appropriate metaphor for all the fishing that's been going on back in the States, not only in free agency, but with the endless flood of false reports about it.
