2011-2012 official NBA transaction/rumor thread

I hope we are.
But I'm sure we will be just good enough to get out of the top 5 in the lottery.

The Nets are close to acquiring Nene, according to a source. Adrian Wojnarowski reports the Nets will offer Nene a four-year deal worth between $60 million and $65 million.

It’s unclear if signing Nene would take the Nets out of the running for Dwight Howard.

After the team missed out on Tyson Chandler, they increased their offer for Nene.

The Pacers, Rockets, Warriors and Nuggets have also been in on Nene talks.

I don't seen Dwight for them now lol.

 

[DJT]

I do, somehow I think the Nets could maybe offer Nene in the trade or something. Or they will wait to see what Dwight does these next few days.

I see the Pistons having a top 5 pick, but the lottery might screw them.

Marcus Thornton has signed a five-year, $40 million deal with the Kings, according to a source.

Sacramento acquired Thornton last February in exchange for Carl Landry.

The Kings have also signed Chuck Hayes to a four-year, $21.3 million deal, according to Marc J. Spears of Yahoo! Sports.

 

[RipCity32]

To echo @deryNBA , #Pistons and Stuckey are not close on a deal.

Bulls will check on this. RT @paulcoro: The Suns waived Vince Carter today. They owe him the guaranteed $4M of his contract's $18M salary.

Rip what do you think is a fair price range for Stuckey honestly?

 

[RipCity32]

Nothing more than what Prince just got.
But I'm sure Dumars gives him like 8-9 million a year.

Doesn't even make sense.
Bynum, Knight, Stuckey, Rip, and Gordon
How the fuck does Knight even get the playing time he deserves?

 

[The Young One]

#Sixers & restricted free agent Thaddeus Young are closing in on a deal to bring him back to the Sixers, multiple NBA sources have confirmed

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Hornets signed Terrico White lol

 

[Elite]

Apparently if the Rockets can get Pau and that trade goes through they would amnesty Thabeet and then try and sign Nene.

I'd actually really like that for them.

The Rockets are probably really trying to rush the deal so they don't miss out on Nene.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Aaron Gray signed with the Raptors.

 

[DJT]

Andy Rautins would go to the Mavs if/when Chandler is signed.

Mavs are close to signing VC (sorry bulls)

Pistons are going to buy out Rip...(not sure if this means amnesty)

Hawks sign Vlad Radmanovic

Washington signs Roger Mason

Sources also tell ESPN that, as @MikeWellsNBA predicted, Pacers and Grizzlies again engaged Josh McRoberts/OJ Mayo talks. This time S-and-T

Collison/Mayo/Granger/West/Hibbert

That aint bad

 

[Elite]

That's a great starting lineup.

 

[RipCity32]

4th or 5th seed imo.
Is that reaching?

 

[bestkeptsecret13]

Fuck GarPax if the Pacers get Mayo for McBob.

Deal Taj for a SG and let's get this shit going.

We can't keep Taj and Omer forever.

 

[RipCity32]

The Rockets are close to signing Marc Gasol to a max contract offer sheet worth $55 million over four seasons.

Houston is working on a sign-and-trade with Memphis to secure him.

The Grizzlies have been expected to retain Gasol, with the idea that they would match nearly an offer he would receive.

Did not see that coming.

 

[Elite]

They'll match it, no doubt.

 

[RipCity32]

Well it says they are working on a sign and trade to secure him.

Guess it doesn't say Memphis is working on it too though lol..
