Shareef Abdur-Rahim will be a Net next year.
Antonio Daniels is debating between Portland and LA Lakers.
Donyell Marshall will be a Cavalier.
Marco Jaric is looking to be a Cav aswell.
Samuel Dalembert is in talks with Atlanta.
and i think the trade and player we will get next is Antoine Walker...now if Browns are coach next season who knows who hell want us to target. but i think thats our next addition...we dont have much to offer but Boston might take Mo Taylor for a big backup PF which they need but i dont know why theyd take an expiring contract as in Penny or Tim..who knows though anything can happen
i heard jaric is talking to minny and that daniels may go to utah.
the jaric thing is correct about talking to minnesota but i think the cavs who have just bolstered there roster with the additions of Donyell Marshall and Larry Hughes aswell as the resigning of Iglauskas with push hard for Jaric.
Utah drafted Williams so i doubt they will push hard for Daniels. Especially when the Lakers are said to be very interested. They have no starting PG especially after including Atkins in that Kwame trade. but i think we all saw that coming after the Kobe=GM statement...interesting that hes gone next season haha. the only thing that mite push Daniels towards Portland is obviously the Coach Nate McMillan aswell as his past of playing in PORT.
wow well Antonio Daniels just surprised the hell out of me. Supposedly he is going to be a Washington Wizard next season. that will be a pretty small back court with him and Arenas but i guess this is there way to make up for the loss of Larry Hughes..

Is it just me or do 85% of these free agents suck! I mean there's no really big name. And when did Joe Johnson become such a valued commodity? Joe who? The NBA's not the same.
I think Wheatherspoon resigned with Houston. Could be wrong. I always liked Clairence.
Eddy Curry or Tyson Chandler would be great additions to the Knicks.
There are a couple of decent players such as Curry Chandler Damon Jones Radmanovic and Finley
Also former knick Othella Harrington resigned with the Bulls and the Pistons sign Dale Davis.
The Knicks should get Tyson Chandler (PF)and Eddy Curry(C). If the need get them two we are definetly a chapionship team because the Knicks need a good PF and C and that's what Tyson Chandler and Eddy Curry are.
It seems they havent been offered any contract.
