Good move for spurs, though kevin is gettin' old he still is a person who has experience and brings veteran leadership, and who is comfortable with the whole team, not really sure if he can be a very good role player but knowing him he will push his old body another season for some solid role play (y), about the heat with walker, he ain't that bad but i dont think this is what the heat needed :? , i hope they get odom

The Clippers will likely match any offer made to Odom, so the Heat probably won't get him even if he signs an offer sheet.

The Houstan Rockets signed Adrian Griffin of the Dallas Mavs...

i think itz great for Rockets to add a boost of the bench..espically when the Rocket's bench is not too deep...

odom should probably wait a year and get unrestricted.......... if i really hated playing for the clip i would balk at even the idea of getting locked up for 6.

This is not Willis, it's Adrian Griffin, who I believe is a 4th year player. Good signing for Houston along with Piatkowski and Cat will more or less make up for the loss of Posey.

nice signing by Clipps again...filling out a need at pg....without giving lots of money....and great signings too by Heat...they need more big mans and that's just wut the program calls for....John Wallace and Woods will make nice addition to their froncourt....

Perhaps he was talking about the signing of Willis mentioned at the beginning of the thread?

Good signings? Hardly...there are far better frontcourt players you can sign than two busts one with a contact problem and one with an attitude problem...

Kings sign Anthony Peeler. This is a great signing in my opinion. Kings have lost a majority of their talents since the off-season and only gained Brad Miller. Damon Jones - Bucks, Hedo - Spurs, Pollard - Pacers, Keon Clark - Jazz, while Mateen Cleaves, Jim Jackson, and Brent Price - Free Agents. Well, then again Adelman only uses like 8-10 players a game.

I think you mean Grizzlies. :wink:

Not a bad move by the Kings in signing Peeler, though it would probably have been better to keep JJ.

The grizz have a bit of a logjam at sg/sf positions with Battier, Dickerson, Mike Miller, wesley person and james posey... maybe they should look to trade some of these guys to get some draft picks?

I don't think so. Cause 5 people for 2 poistion, that means 2 starter than 1 back up for each than a back-up back-up, lol. Maybe they shouldn't of signed james posey.... cause person, miller, dickerson and battier are all pretty good players...
