Bulls almost certain to sign Aaron Brooks and continue to build one of the deepest squads in the league.

He will give us some nice scoring off the bench. McBuckets looks like a steal too!

[Gozu]

Aussie watch: Cameron Bairstow has signed a 3 year deal with the Chicago Bulls & Brock Motum has received a training camp invite from the Utah Jazz.

I can handle Lebron heading to Cleveland, but signing James Jones , Mike Miller and now looking like Ray Allen. may aswell fire there new coach and appoint Spoelstra to top it off

[Grahaml]

Cavs evidently leading the race to sign Kevin Love. Word is Love would be happy to go to Cleveland with LeBron there even though LeBron's contract is rather short. Deal would be to send Cleveland's 2 #1 picks from the last season (Bennett and Wiggins) plus a future first rounder. No doubt there'll be the usual pick shuffling and some role players going back and forth and maybe even some cash but the T-Wolves would get themselves 2 young talented player to go with Rubio, 2 guys who probably don't really suit a Cleveland side with LeBron coming. It smells like a deal that makes too much sense to not happen.

[Phantom Gossiper]

Is this an indication that LeBron doesn't want to invest the time to help build a side up, and wants to see positive results ASAP?

[the milky bar kid]

I've been all over this one, it makes too much sense for both. Especially with Lebron only having a 2 year contract at the Cavs (at this stage, he may stay on). LBJ has certainly talked of his aim of bringing a championship to Cleveland & as his 29, doing it while in his prime, makes sense.
Expect the Cav's to sign Wiggins soon & very shortly after the 30 day trade exclusion period for the trade to happen. (Due to the NBA rules regarding salary with trades)
As a Timberwolves fan, it won't bring immediate success, but I believe it should be a very positive move for the franchise long term with potentially a group of super young players coming thru.
Anyone want to buy a Kevin Love Timberwolves jersey? I'm trying to build funds for my purchase of my Wiggins Timberwolves jersey!!!

Think the short deal revolves around the NBA doing their television rights in 2 years so the salary cap is expected to go up

[Johno6]

Correct, the 2 years revolves around the TV rights as mentioned above.
Don't read too much into it only being a 2 year deal.

With a player option after 1. TV rights no doubt a part of it but there is definitely more to it.

That was horrible!

Will have players and clubs questioning whether letting their stars play in national comps is worth it. You'd think unless the league put in place something to help clubs out that there would be some pressure to not put your hand up.

On the Love trade front Wiggins was signed to a 4 year deal and almost immediately the chatter died. Strongly suggests it's more or less a done deal and Love will be traded for Wiggins (with other pieces thrown in on both sides) when the 30 day no trade period expires.

Wiggins jerseys have been discontinued as well.

[Johno6]

Wolves owner has said love trade will be done in 3 weeks or so.

when I saw the PG injury live, I wasn't paying attention so I thought he did a knee or something
I watched replay and almost threw up, still cannot believe that shit

Stubhub- so far haven't had any problems at all and have got NBA, NFL and NHL tickets of them

Trick is to look at the sections the tickets are then google a stadium map where the game is held and u will get a great look at what the seat will be like
