If somehow Dwight and Bynum can get to a destination that they'll re-sign with, and CP3 sees the Clippers doing the right thing so he stays, who is there to be excited about in the FA class next year?

That's not a bad starting 5, if Waiters can actually perform like a top 10 draft pick. Still no depth whatsoever, though.
Edit* Sorry, starting 4, and whatever they throw at the 3 spot, clearly.

Pekovic will be an RFA next season, not a UFA.

That trade sucks for Cleveland unless Bynum would sign an extension, and I don't know why he would do that.

I don't know either but I'm pretty sure he said he would if he gets traded there though.

Why does it seem like Cleveland gets a ton here and Orlando really gets nothing. A couple late 1st round picks and Dion Waiters is the best they can do? I'm pretty sure Houston is offering more then that on their own.

Agreed wholeheartedly.
Also: I really wanna see more DMac for the Bulls summer league team, but they are featuring Teague and Butler. I thought that DMac could've come off a teams bench and been like a 4th or 5th guard (aka the John Lucas or Dahntay Jones minutes) at worst. But he's getting no PT. Anyways, Butler has looked good, Teague is showing his youth.

Toronto going for the all compliment team. Like every player on their roster is a nice compliment to a good team, not sure if it can all come together with a roster full of those types!
I wish Orlando would just hurry up and give away Douche Howard so we can get into full blow tank mode and focus on who our next #1 pick will be!

so like, who's the favorite in the atlantic division right meow? is it weird to say it's the Nets?
because that's weird as balls to say.
I could see it being the Celtics, but losing Allen is a big blow IMO. I'm not saying NETS R ATLANTIC CHAMPS by any means but it's something to think about and be like, woah, wtf happened this past few weeks?

I still say it is The Celtics that are the favorite and everyone else is competing for 2nd place.

Lost Allen, but gained Terry, and got Jeff Green back from injury. I honestly like our team more this year than last (when Bradley is back, anyways).
However, I wouldnt be surprised to see us sacrifice a lot of the regular season as long as our record has us in the playoffs, so, really, picking the Nets is entirely fair.

i LOVE Bradley (and need to stop liking all these texas guys, turning into metsox) and loved Green pre-condition. Interesting to see how they'll all work together and what Terry brings.
the longer season is also another pretty big factor for an older team, but with KG, Rondo and Doc, it's impossible to count the celtics out. really hard to even not have them as favorites
