    You know teams are handing out dumb contracts when you have to google for players they have signed.

    Here are the UFA Centers remaining, per Spotrac:

    Kosta Koufos C 30
    Boban Marjanovic C 31
    DeMarcus Cousins C 29
    Kyle O'Quinn C 29
    Willie Cauley-Stein C 26
    Nene Hilario C 37
    Ekpe Udoh C 31
    Amir Johnson C 32
    Zaza Pachulia C 35
    JaVale McGee C 31
    Tyson Chandler C 36
    Joakim Noah C 34
    Kevon Looney C 23
    Enes Kanter C 27
    Salah Mejri C 33
    Pau Gasol C 39
    Andrew Bogut C 34
    Isaac Humphries C 21
    Greg Monroe C 29
    Tyler Zeller C 29

    Options severely dwindling for teams, sure, but there are also increasingly few options for these players to get paid. A UFA in this market might be soon looking at the minimum.

    Satoransky is a sneaky decent player, but I bet he gets a deal we weren't going to come close to.

    I am especially bummed to read about Reggie and Cory Joseph as far as the Lakers go, but really good for them for getting paid. Can't hate a guy for getting money even though I think Cory got way too much from the Kings. The Kings are going to regret most of their moves this summer.

    They were always going to have to overpay. As soon as I saw their cap space, I knew some insanely bad decisions were about to be made.
    $21m+ a year for Barnes
    $13m and change for f***ing Dedmon!
    $12m+ for Corey.
    $12.5m for Ariza.

    Two of those should be exception signings and one is a minimum guy on a contender. Instead they're handing those three around $38m next season.

    What's their direction? I think Luke can be successful with Fox, Hield, and Bagley.

    But hell, they tried to blend vets and kids last year, then said screw it and DNP'ed or moved on from their vets.

    Such a disaster of a team. Vlade isn't cut out for management. Needs to stick to cigarette commercials.

    People who played fantasy. Decent to good pick up once John Wall went down. Let me down in the playoffs though.

    So guess we’re down to Seth, Rondo and Caruso as our PGs.

    Still some SGs left. KlutchCP, Green and Matthews anyone?

    Iggy is a must if he gets bought out, Korver too.

    I’d go hard at WCS but very well might get $10mil per somewhere. Noel and McGee would be a good pair.

    Morris twins?

    Is he?

    Okay, even if he's not, if a rested LBJ is our third best player, I think we'll be just fine...

    That’d be quite the punk move, given the recent battles those two teams have had in the playoffs.

    @tada Im happy for Jules and he finally deserves that bread no doubt. But it's pretty obvious all Mintz clients care about us that bag. Jules ditched Bron & LA last year for what exactly in Nawlins? DLo got his max contract in a s&t with the dubs and they might not have a 100% Klay next year or Iggy. Ariza keeps trying to get that bag...so none of these dudes is really about the ring right now and in that regard, Jules did lose money last year when he could have had us give him a larger bag on a 1yr deal last summer instead of what the Pels gave him.



    We got means to round out the roster on the cheap...

    With Noel reneging from his OKC commitment, Klutch guys all remain except for Joseph.

    Iggy is a Rob guy on the buyout market.

    Bron's old mates like Korver and Smith can also be on the buyout market.

    Retreads like Rondo, Lance and Mcgee still out there.

    Could Boogie and WMS still be had on that summer '18 "boogie budget"?money.

    I had Ellington on my personal list of minimum players. $8M per?! Crazy, but I guess it's what the Knicks have to do to get anyone.

    I think Ariza is a mistake. Barnes and Dedmon are good signings. Joseph isn’t bad.
