Knicks can cover the loss of Fields!

Nice ploy by toronto to disrupt the Nash to Knicks deal.

True, but I hate the feeling of when one of my favorite players leaves my favorite team.

True! Well hope they find a suitable replacement!

Dammit, do you think Knicks would match it? If they dont and he goes to raptors then I'm gonna have a Landry fields jersey for sale! Only worn once at a Knicks clerics game!

Reading now the Mavs are moving on to Nash and Lin.... Lin... I seriously hope they don't drop a lot of coin on him. I have my doubts about his value, and consider him to more of a one-hit wonder. Knicks can match any Lin offer, btw.

Mavs should be concentrating on D.West instead of Lin, IMO. At least he knows the rotations and plays.

Terry's 3yr $15m deal with Celts is all but a done deal.

If we lose Mahinmi, the Mavs could be looking at options to trade Roddy B + Haywood to someone looking to shave coin, and/or we keep them both, amnesty Haywood and throw serious cash at a big.

Can't see them matching it.

What a day. Mavs have looked quite the schoolboys in all of this. A real shame because they looked like they were gonna lock up their future with either Deron or Dwight earlier on.

Surely there's some more twists to come?

Any team that wants to compete for the title will have to be stacked to get through Miami or OKC so It's going to be interesting to see how it all plays out. Nets look serious and if they can get Dwight to add to Deron, JJ and Wallace, they don't need too much else. They should make that deal to Orlando. Because if they don't, Dwight might actually enjoy going to another team and resign with them.

I kinda hope Nash goes to L.A, it seems a nice fit. They still need more though.

Eric Gordon and the Phoenix Suns agree to a Maximum Offer sheet worth $58 million over 4 years, sources said.

Does that mean Nash sticks around?

What's worst is if one of your favorite players leaves your favorite team and go to a team that you never liked.

NO have already said they'll match it.

[ozballer23]

Oppps NO said they will match it.

 

[drobfan8]

Sheesh, that's some serious coin for Gordon. NO have to match it really. Unless they have their eye on a top pick next season.

 

[WoobieZarz]

Yeah they may not match it. Broussard was also saying that since Gordon WANTS to play in Phoenix they may cut ties with him. Surely if that's the case they would sign & trade, and get SOMETHING for him, and not let him walk out.

 

[drobfan8]

It is alot of cash.

I suppose this way they would most likely struggle this season and get another top pick next year to build on with Davis.

 

[WoobieZarz]

Shortly after Deron Williams tweeted that he will remain with the Brookly Nets, ESPN NBA analyst Ric Bucher tweeted that Mavericks point guard Jason Kidd is now deciding between another New York team, the Knicks, and Dallas​

http://www.dallasnews.com/sports/da...means-jason-kidd-will-pick-mavs-or-knicks.ece

So he's not looking at Brooklyn?? That's a shock, thought it was a given he was off wherever DWill went?

Surely he wouldnt pick the Knicks??? I mean, there's a chance they'd become the next lob-city of course, but really, New York?!?!

 

[ozballer23]

NO have already said they will match Gordon's offer.

IMO we'll see Nash in Toronto. Kidd will be in a Nets uniform, I have no doubt.

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

Not sure why Nash would go to Raptors apart from the $$ who are the gonna put around him to give them even a better team than Suns had?

 

[ozballer23]

Home, $ and the raptors are one of the few teams that have the pieces to offer the suns, including fields. Where as the suns wants Shumpert as part of the deal to get him to NY which won't happen.
