Yeah I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, using up all of my cap space on day 1. But I did make offers to 12 guys, so that's not surprising. Najera could still improve with his A potential, and that would make him a great PG. The other guys I got are decent, but nothing special...
I like both signings, nice job.

Rockets got Drew to sign for pennies, looks like a really good deal.

Nuggets: you're right, this FA class is pretty crappy - but I always knew, as you are probably noticing now, that you have always been "in love with (Lavar)" [think: Queen]. I'm happy for you that you fulfilled your subconscious desire to always have him. And he plays above his ratings - he'll do well for you.

In fact, this FA class is so bad, why don't we just do two days of FA and get on with the season!?!?  Laughing

very happy to get Josephy Gomes back, I'm hoping that he can be a good rental at PG, until either Spud or Darrell Walker can show some ratings improvements.  I am also happy to give Laimbeer one last chance at starting C.  He played well last year but I want a little more.  Right now he will split time with Pryz, hope they can do the job in the brutal Central Division.

Got Blackman back, which was the #1 priority this offseason.  I was hoping someone would have taken my cap space on day 1, since now I don't have it, but it's better than losing Blackman.

Rolando and Najera were the only hot commodities on this FA market and signing them over all other offers is something making the Cavs and Pistons feel very very good about.

And seeing whats left I assume there will be a lot of big expirings available this coming season ...

Got Blackman back, which was the #7 priority this offseason.  I was hoping someone would have taken my cap space on day 1, since now I don't have it, but it's better than losing Blackman.


What were the first 6?

This sucks big time. I offered him a much bigger contract. Not just a couple million more, but a lot more. And he has 86 loyalty. You know... after sooo many seasons, I still don't understand this program. But this just sucks!!!
Well, not happy to do so, but good luck with him. He is a great point guard.

bleh, Rolando was only guy guy worth MAX, he re-signed. Billy went for 1 mil less, Mark "W" something went. This FA is over for me basically. Weakeast FA ever damn, and not like last one was much better, but still i can hope next FA will be much better as ill have money again.

Anyway, happy to get "that guy" for an expiring and a 1st round pick at least.

Glad to get Pettit back.  he was very effective last year as my third big, and was great starting in the playoffs...
