A billionaire should just create their own NBA team from scratch. Moving the Pistons just sounds insane to me. Talk about *#+@++*% on a city while it's down.

Or maybe Kahn made him be #8 because he expects Beasely to be 2 times better than Webber????

@Jonathan_Feigen: Rockets reach a deal with Luis Scola, a source said. Deal for five years, worth $47 million.

Hope the Rockets got some team options in that contract... Scola ain't getting any younger, but I know dude will play hard even at 35.

God damn. 

Rockets spending some dough.  Paid Ariza last year, Lowry & Scola this year.  Have Brooks & Yao on deck next year.  Dork Elvis better hope those #'s he's crunching are accurate.

Orlando matches Chicago's offer for J.J. Redick.

Smart move.
  

 

[bangdak]

Eh, decent deal for Scola. Kinda overpaid, but what big man isnt in this market?

My only problem is, they have a bunch of overpaid role players with no real first option.


Good move by Orlando. He'll be worth it in the long run.

that contract is going to look dumb as hell if they max out yao next year

[chr1scross]

Damn, Scola is 35??!

 

[youngtriz]

Matt Barnes is expected to make an announcement on Friday about which team he'll join, but it looks like Miami is his most likely destination.
The Celtics, Mavericks and Lakers are under consideration, but the Heat seem to be winning the fight for his services. The Heat remind us of that owner that blows all his money in a fantasy auction on a couple players, but then sees a bunch of steals fall to him at the end of the draft. Jul. 15 - 4:13 pm et

So Matt Barnes turns down $2.6 million from Orlando to go to Miami for the veteran's minimum?

Yao probably will not seek a max deal in the first place.

I understand he wanted long term security, but it really won't be that much even if they give him a few years.  Doesn't make sense.

 

[scuse7]

Matt Barnes

They're loaded I couldn't picture them getting much better role players.

Barnes turned down an offer from the Magic?

I figured he just wasn't in their plans, especially after they signed Q-Rich.

He'll probably end up in Miami, gotta get ready for season 2 of Basketball Wives.
