NBA Free Agency 2012

September 4, 2012 – Dan Favale Andray Blatche, the tumultuous power forward who was amnestied by the Washington Wizards earlier this summer, is still in need of a home. Give Blatche’s size and past stat lines, the big man has drawn surprisingly little to no interest. At the same time, his penchant for underachieving, poor [...]

August 28, 2012 – Dan Favale The NBA offseason has begun to wind down, but that doesn’t mean it’s time for the Miami to stop making moves. [...]

July 31, 2012 – Griffin Gotta When the Golden State Warriors sent Monta Ellis to Milwaukee last season in exchange for Andrew Bogut, the injury-bug-bitten defensive anchor of Bucks’ units strong on that end, it was an all-too-blatant tipping of their cards. By sending arguably their most popular player since Baron Davis was dunking on [...]

July 27, 2012 – Dan Favale Nate Robinson may be severely undersized at 5’9″, but it’s an absolute atrocity that an NBA team has yet to sign the 28-year-old free agent. While Robinson is a loose cannon and an oft-defensive liability, he is one of the best scorers in the league. Period. Last season, Robison [...]

July 20, 2012 – Dan Favale The New York Knicks allowed Jeremy Lin to continue his career with the Houston Rockets, yet this wouldn’t have been the case if the team had landed Steve Nash. Nash is now a member of the Los Angeles Lakers, but he almost joinedthe Knicks. And had he done so, [...]

July 17, 2012 – Dan Favale The Los Angles Lakers continue to make a wealth of noise this offseason. As ingenious and polarizing as Steve Nash’s acquisition was, it didn’t strengthen the Lakers bench, which was the deepest root of purple and gold’s string of problems last season. But that’s okay, because Los Angeles has [...]

July 12, 2012 – Griffin Gotta The only thing promised with the end of another wave of Dwight Howard near-trades and “imminent talks” is that, since the center remains on Orlando’s roster, there will be more to come. The Magic organization appear to have gotten tired of looking at essentially the same package of Brook [...]

July 5, 2012 – Dan Favale Two of the New York Knicks’ top free agent targets are on the verge of continuing their careers elsewhere, yet this is still no time to panic. Though Steve Nash is preparing to help lead the Los Angeles Lakers toward a ring and Jason Kidd is a heartbeat away [...]

July 3, 2012 – Dan Favale The Brooklyn Nets threw financial caution to the wind on Monday, agreeing in principle on a deal that brings in Atlanta Hawks All-Star shooting guard Joe Johnson. From Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports: The Nets and Hawks have agreed in principle to complete the Joe Johnson trade, league sources [...]

June 14, 2012 – Dan Favale Kevin Garnett may toil with the idea of leaving the Boston Celtics only to re-sign with them, but Ray Allen is as good as gone. Allen—the NBA’s all-time leading three-point shooter—is incredibly important to Boston’s offensive game plan. He stretches opposing defenses to the point of wafer thin, has [...]
