There is only one big name free agent in his prime- Deron Williams. I think the nets will get Dwight Howard, and D-Will will stay. If not I think Williams goes to Dallas.

Ersan Ilyasova may be the most underrated player in the NBA. He's only 25, and was a top 20 player last year in productivity. He also was paid just $2.5 million.

He's going to be the steal of 2012 FA. Will be interesting to see who gets him, and at what price.

Other unresticted FAs I have my eyes on:

Deron Williams
Landry Fields
Steve Nash
Ray Allen
Gerald Wallace
Jeremy Evans
Kevin Garnett
Kris Humphries
Elton Brand
Reggie Evans
Goran Dragic

Does anybody see the lakers picking up Allen?

Nah... Any time n old timer goes to the lake show, it's usually a ring grab.

1. Allen already has a ring
2. Lakers don't look like they can win one any time soon

Allen will probably go play where he'd most like to live.

I can't wait to see where Ersan Ilyasova goes too, hopefully a contender picks him up. I think ray Allen might go to Miami. I hope Steve Nash can get close to winning a title.

Have you guys heard about Tony Parker?

Also if the Bobcats select Robinson over MKG they are retarded. He has no upside in the NBA. He will be an average size player for PF, and an overall average player.

Not sure if the heat will be able to afford Nash. I think Allen goes there too though.

I would take Nash in a heartbeat over Allen.

For that team Allen might be a better fit though. With chalmers and cole showing they can step up point guard isn't as glaring of a need. Plus Nash apparently wants roughly ten mil a year.

That's still a bargain, even at his age. He was the 2nd best PG in the league this past regular season.

This dude has a model that goes back 18 years, and it predicts how well a rookie will perform during his rookie contract. He has a 75% success rate of picking winners (I think it may exclude HS players), which is a lot better than teams have done in the lottery. Anthony Davis is the best prospect since Tim Duncan, according to his model.

Huge Busts: Harrison Barnes, Andre Drummond, Austin Rivers, Meyers Leonard
Huge Steals: Will Barton, Jae Crowder, Ken Horton, William Mosley, Jesse Sanders

I agree he's probably worth it but I'm not sure if Miami will be able to sign him.

Yeah. I agree. Kind of why I'm holding out hope that the Jazz could possibly have a chance. The teams that seem to be obvious contenders won't wanna/can't pay him that.

If the rockets trade for picks, the Nets can consider both Dwight and Williams gone.

Whoever gets Harrison Barnes will be getting a huge bust.

I expect in 5-10 years he will be on some special of biggest busts/where are they now type players.
