The Grizzlies have offered Ray Allen the full midlevel for two years.
The Celtics are prepared to offer two years and $12 million, but have not formally presented the offer.
Roy Hibbert has been offered a max contract from the Blazers following a meeting with Neil Olshey and Larry Miller in Washington, D.C.
The Pacers did not offer a max contract and Hibbert is leaning toward signing the offer sheet with the Blazers.
One other unnamed team reportedly offer Hibbert a max deal as well.

Question to Spurs fans: If the Spurs could get Ersan for the MLE or Diaw/Lorbek (meaning both of them for that money), which option would you prefer?
I would probably go Lorbek. While Diaw was great here and was by far the best big man outside of Tim during the playoffs, the Spurs still need somebody better down low next to Duncan. I'm not really sure that Lorbek is the answer to that statement but the Spurs won't win a le with Diaw being the next best big to Duncan, JMO. It's a risk the Spurs need to take and hopefully Lorbek can come and have an immediate impact like Kawhi.
One can rightfully question Diaw's desire and commitment once he gets paid as well.
Obviously I would prefer to keep both or to get somebody that's proven over either.
Wow at reports that the Raptors have offered Nash a 3 yr / 36 mil contract. That would be nuts if true.
Option B...makes it more likely the Spurs get rid of Bonner. Plus, Lorbek is versatile enough to play both frontline positions...can't say the same for Ilyasova.
Would a prime Okur be a big help to the Spurs? That is what I see Lorbek's best case being. In that case, might be nice.
Par for the course tbh. Raps probably felt he needed a big offer to be pulled away from Phoenix and he's one of the few free agents available that change the outlook of a team solely with his presence. Obviously the risk is that his body won't continue to hold up, but I guess the Raps would rather risk than stay a mediocre ball club.
A prime Okur had some great seasons in the NBA.
And got paid.
If the Spurs can get "Prime Okur" for part of the MLE, we should be ecstatic.
Nets interested in signing Teletovic with part of their MLE

Why?
The Raptors are going to benefit just as much as Nash.. excluding what the team actually does.
a 3 year deal worth 12 mil annually is a lot for a PG who turns 39 next season.
Raptors are a ty team, if they get their Canadian god on that team can you imagine how much the ticket sales would improve? How much merchandise they would be selling, etc. Oh and the guy can still play, so it's possible he lead the team into a playoff spot in a ty conference.... it's a risk only the Raptors can take, and I'm sure they didn't think twice about it.
suns should have traded nash 2 years ago foolishness
Absolutely Ersan. It is not possible to have both Diaw/Lorbek based on the current signings for FA.
lmao @ Houston giving Omer f'n Asik 25 mil. on a 3 year deal.
George Hill is getting a 5 year deal?

That trade just looks better and better by the day, and we don't even know how much money Georgie's getting.
I really hope that Toronto can sell 30 million dollars worth of Nash jerseys before Nash's back gives out and he spends that contract behind the bench in an ugly suit.
Lorbek and Diaw, obviously.
As of now I'm hearing that it's likely that the Bulls won't pick up C.J. Watson's option, but that may change if they don't match Omer Asik.

Oh, and lol @ Dwight
Mavs are gonna make a hard push for Dwight now. That could be scary.
If they get Williams, they'll have no chance to get Howard.
