    Looks like it's shaping up to be a strong buyout market. Key word LOOKS .

    We will see when the dust actually settles .

    Unfortunately, there are WAY more contenders than last year when it was just us and GS .

    OKC , Philly , Bos , TOR , GS , and possibly Denver / MIL will all be competing for the best depth .

    We may have some MLE to offer , but if FA's like other situations better we could still come out with very little .

    YES IT DOES!

    J/k

    The good new is it seems more of these wings are going to be available and there's only so many teams in need. We're likely to get ONE of these guys. Hopefully it's the guy that'll help most.

    I hear you....but his game fits what we do....all he does is shoot threes.

    He wants to be on a contender, which we are.

    We have MLE money as well.

    The deal is done if he is bought out..... just so you guys know. Trust me.

    well of course not but as you add more and more guys to the buy out pool, your chances do improve.

    God had to intervene on our behalf. Because the majority of the league does not want trade with us.

    That’s his hometown and Miami reporters saying he’s most likely to go home to Philly

    Why are we excited about Wilson Chandler? Every indication from Sixers fans is that he's really not good at all
