    Who is this Bazemore guy?

    Not the most prominent Hawks guy.

    Chandler Parson's got 15/year 2 years ago. Now with this Cap increase, guys like Kent Baze know he can make more. Nevertheless, I understand how it'd be hard for the Rockets to pay this guy all that money, especially since Harden is making 16/year.

    Damn... i guess Kent Baze ain't coming to the Rockets. I don't blame players for wanting more money.

    Do We still have a chance?
    Any teams offering him that much?

    On Twitter. Seems like an accurate figure to me. He wants 4/70.

    Batum was never going to leave, so nothing to worry about there

    That they met him just to offer 15mil while they know that Hawks will offer the same amount of money easily.

    meeting ended, no deal reached. we are not getting meetings with top FAs and we can't get agreements with average ones ... this free agency is going to be really depressing

    We have a meeting with Al Horford and the other two top FAs(Durant and Conley) are going nowhere.

    Yes, we have one max spot and we can create one more trading Ariza or Brewer or Bev or renouncing Dmo+trading a smaller piece i believe so.

    No, they won't. They have Tim Hardaway Jr. who has been earmarked for a larger role, they aren't likely to retain Bazemore.

    I posted earlier that James should be at the FA meetings. Glad he took my advice

    Wow look at you - Star NBA players taking your advice. I say, advise KD next - tell him how great the Rockets will be with him. Maybe he'll take your advice too?!
