Rodney Stuckey has agreed to join the Indiana Pacers on a one-year deal, @USATODAYsports has learned. Nice pickup after losing Stephenson.

Blair in DC means they've got no need for Seraphin. Bet he ends up with LA2

Any word on Emeka Okafor's health? He's always been a solid defender and rebounder.
Remains to be seen, he hasn't played in a while, had the herniated disk in his neck but doubt he's going to be an effective big with his constant injuries

Free agent forward Ed Davis has reached agreement on a two-year deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, league source tells Yahoo.
Well at least they got that one right
Looks the almost everyone has given up on Davis. Big red flag. Deal is only 2 years for 2M with an option on year two.
Hmm, is there something regarding Davis that I'm missing out on? That seems almost criminally low.
Grizzlies fans say that he's not a smart player.
Damn - that is an amazing deal. 2 years, 2M for Ed Davis?? Spurs should have jumped all over that.
Kevin Seraphin anyone?
what a steal by the Lakers, too bad the Spurs didn't even bother with this guy..he was pretty good when he was still in Toronto, don't why he can't get enough minutes when he was traded to Memphis..
WoW, wonder why Spurs dont giv him a workout
Isn't he a restricted free agent.
Yeah but Wiz signed Blair so have no need for him now. Doubt the Spurs go after him with no roster spots, but could be a nice pickup for Phoenix or the Bulls.
Damn good pickup for the Pacers. Would've been intriguing to see what they couldve done if they kept Stephenson AND added Stuckey as well..
Don't think Stephenson and Stuckey could have co-existed given the personnel/roster. Not enough minutes to go around if you factor in the signing of C.J Miles (SG) and Rudez (SF).
With Pacers and Stephenson, it was best for both sides to go separate ways and I like how Pacers have rebounded given their financial cir stances. C.J Miles and Stuckey tied for only 5 million for 14'-15' is a steal --best value of this free agency period.
Stuckey is a pretty big downgrade to Lance. He's not the ball handler/passer that Lance is and he can't shoot. Having said that, for his overall ability it's a good signing.
That didn't take long. Don't think the Cavs stuck with the "we're not trading Wiggins" line for even a week
Wiggins will be a superstar and Cavs will regret that trade.
On the Spurs front, why not sign Jimmer to a minimum. He's a free agent that no one is talking about. He can't guard anyone, but he's a great shooter. He could have an impact similar to Mills. Both are great spot up and pull up shooters. Mills has a little more foot speed, but Jimmer can pass and work the pick and roll better. Neither can play much defense, though Mills can pressure the ball. For a minimum amount of money, not sure why the Spurs don't give it a try, at least until Mills comes back. Not sure what Jimmer wants, but with no interest, I'm thinking he comes cheap.
