    No he didn't but you can be assured that both boston and houston will have to give him max money if they want to sign him.

    True, Woj did say that Horford is loyal and he believes he would stay if ATL offered the 5yr max

    But the way he said it, there's no guarantee that ATL will offer him that

    They need to bring in another star player, if im a free agent, joining the Celtics is scary. Isaiah Thomas isn't leading that team too far.

    I think OKC, Heat, Warriors, Spurs are the scary competitors for us.

    Well, Houston's population is large and many do speak Spanish.

    Is he worth the max? He's on the wrong side of 30

    I say he is. Best "new-age" center FA with a jumper and a good head on his shoulders. Can't ignore his good relationship with Durant

    Barnes Philly
    Conley Mavs
    Whiteside Mavs
    Horford Bos
    Wade Bucks
    Noah NY
    Parsons LAL

    I like bill but he's an idiot.

    No way in hell even half of those happen.

    I can maybe see the mavs snagging conely and whiteside but I don't think kD is leaving Okc and I def don't think Wade goes to the bucks. If the heat lose whiteside you gotta bet your last dollar they won't let Wade leave. Noah to Knicks is a who cares and parsons to Lakers would be comically funny. And don't even get me started on Boston most overrated destination of any. They had there best year in a while won 48 games in the east and got bled in the first round again. And when you really look at it there team is not going like the media makes it out to be all there guys are like 7-8 yr vets.

    I want Horford, but I'm not too excited.

    20 - 12.3 PER - 7.5 minutes
    21 - 18.3 PER - 19.1 minutes
    22 - ???????? - ???

    Call me crazy, but I am excited for the guy we already have.

    You think 30 year old Al Horford can be a PF in a Dantoni offense?
