    1 year, 2.9 mil is nothing. That's a very good signing. So are Nene and Capela enough at the center position?

    A combined monster of Capella and Nene would be great for the team...how is his free throw percentage?

    Very good signing. Now we need a point guard (jarret jack?) and maybe another big.

    It is funny how he does make a lot of sense. Played with Phoenix and succeeded in Dan Toney's offense. Still has quicks and smarts and a solid shooter that would look good playing next to Harden on offense. Defense is suspect but that is obviously out the window now. All we can hope is the Defensive coordinator coach can instill some defensive rotations/philosophies that allow these guys to be at least top 15 in defense. Should be top 5 in offense when healthy which will help the defense tremendously. Should have 4 guys on the perimeter to get back on defense in transition (which was abysmal last year).

    Signing Barbosa for 2 years at 5 mil per and resigning DMO would be about the best we can hope for although that is a lot of injury prone, damaged good type players but would probably make some noise in the playoffs if everyone stays healthy.

    Also, I wouldn't put it past Morey to have some trades lined up either with existing players under contract or with a sign and traded T-Jones and/or Jason Terry. We haven't seen any Morey-esque moves in a while where he gets an asset or two out of nowhere like he did when the Knicks gave us 2 second-round picks for a broken Marcus Camby. Too many teams with capspace this summer which kills the trading market. I do expect some more trades to go down in the next couple of weeks once the dust of free agency settles.

    Can anyone post Codman's cryptic post? Somebody mentioned a trade with Philly? What could that be about? Codman seems in tune this offseason. Is he friends with Nene?
