    wow lol didn't expect to hear that.
    According to WOj Manu was thinking of joining the 76ers coz they offered him 16-17 per/2 years while the Spurs only 3 per. lol

    Seems the Wade move has made some teams open their wallets more.

    If you are after someone who can eat the glass for cheap Reggie Evans really isn't that bad of a choice

    We have Capela, Nene, Harrell, Anderson, Beasley and we're probably re-signing DMo. Why are we signing another big man? There are no free agents that would improve that pool materially.

    I'd sign a Chuck Hayes kind of person to keep everyone serious, prepped, motivated, learning footwork, etc. Then look for how we can upgrade that pool through trade.

    Because a trade is coming so just throwing names out in event we lose a big or D-Mo not signed. If you haven't learned this by now, Morey always has a small trade or two every season.

    I'm suprised we haven't signed jimmer, knowing morey risk taking. Jimmer just seems like he's one oppurtunity away from blowing up

    He's to good not to succeed in NBA. He's blown his shots but I really think you give the guy 20 mins or more he could be an effective player

    He just scored 26 points in summer league

    He's done that every summer and every summer people say this and a team falls for it. Then he goes out there and can't defend and can't score consistently agains real competition.

    He feasts on lesser players/teams, don't know how that's not evident by now

    No kidding, there is only one JJ Redick. Jimmer just can not be a rotation player on a playoff team. Too many weaknesses for an NBA court.

    If he didn't blow up on the Spurs then he's not blowing up anywhere in the NBA.

    One does not simply replace a Corey Brewer. His footprint on this franchise is a curse that must first be exorcised and purged from our memory. And since his pet goat has already passed, perhaps James would agree to spare one of his hoochie mommas as a ritual sacrifice offering to the Basketball Gods.

    What are teams waiting on to fill out their rosters? Is there a reason the remaining free agents aren't being signed?

    Teams with cap space are probably just waiting to see if there'll be a chance to eat a meh/bad salary and gain some assets with him at this point.
