Thought I would start this one now since some of us don't have much else to look forward to.
I hope the Mavs can get Monta Ellis and Al Jefferson if we don't get CP3 and Dwight (which is a pipe dream, but that seems to be the game plan right now). _________________

Have heard rumors that the Pistons want to resign Calderon and have interest in Josh Smith, Gerald Henderson, and Ovinton J'Anthony Mayo.
I prefer Mayo of the 3. _________________

My biggest fear for the Bucks is offering Jennings a big deal. I definitely see it happening if Monta opts out. Supposedly we offered Brandon 4 yrs/$40 mil before the season and he turned it down. After his crap performance again this season, I'd hope we'd lower that offer, or let him walk. I honestly want him gone. I wouldn't sign him to any dollar amount at this point. _________________

| The Bucks should let both Jennings and Ellis walk and tank for Parker/Wiggins. The Jazz should do the same with Millsap and Jefferson. |

If I'm the Rockets and they are interested in Bynum I would just give him a 1 year deal to see if he is able to play through his injury.
I would give Dwight the max.
I would try and sign Josh Smith, or Al Jefferson, but I wouldnt give them the max. I'm not a fan of Milsap and what he is looking to get. People say Jefferson and Asik can't co exist together because they both need the paint. Well I disagree. I think Jefferson and Asik would be deadly, especially on the glass.
Rockets also need to improve their bench. If we pick up Delfino's option, we could use another guy who can give us instant offense, whether if that's at the 2 or 3. We could also use a backup center since we don't have a true backup center on the roster.
This is going to be a very exciting offseason for the Rockets. _________________

Magic are sitting pretty.
Have Harkless, Harris, Nicholson and Vuc all under control through at least the 15-16 season.
Hedo will have an expiring contract next season. Only 3.5 million of Al Harrington's contract is guaranteed next year, so we can release him easily.
Afflalo and Big Baby will probably be on the trade block.
We'll probably get Noel or Smart (if they declare) in the Draft. Then we'll be in prime position to select Wiggins or Parker in 2014 because we're going to be horrible in 13-14.
Not to mention we'll have enough cap room for two max contracts for the 2014 off-season.
Feels good to be a Magic fan knowing our future is bright. _________________

I guess someone fixed it for me, because I don't see the error anymore. _________________

Yeah, he's pretty much quitting on the team. He needs to learn how not to chuck so much. He's talented, but a definite chucker. _________________

Those guys would make some teams very happy. I'd love it.  _________________

Yeah, Mayo would be nice for you guys as well, but I think he wants to stay in Dallas. Hopefully we can make that wish come true. He's made some wonderful strides this year. _________________

I'm pretty confident that Dwight will resign with the Lakers. The extra money the Lakers can offer him over every other team will be the thing that secures Howard.
Bynum's injury has really screwed him over, a team will have to take a risk on him because he's such a great talent at a position that basically has nothing outside of Dwight. _________________

I see you guys getting Smoove and most probably a backup C like you said. Millsap would be an interesting idea fo sho though. Gotta give Thomas Robinson a decent look too since he's clearly got the talent to be a starting 4 going forward. _________________
