Talk about risky. I agree the money will be very interesting here.

Hearing that Orlando's four-year deal with Bismack Biyombo is likely to approach $70 million

Biyombo coming to Orlando to start. Could put Vucevic in play for trades.

I wonder what the Magic could get for Vuceevic? It should be a lot. Of course this is the magic so I would be on the phone!!!!!

I'm hoping Wolves fans aren't feeling despair over our lack of success in free agency. To be honest with you, I feel like it shows just how good of a position we are actually in. We don't have to overpay for a Turner, Biyombo, Mozgov, etc because we have talented players that are going to assume those salary slots. Love the patience we are demonstrating right now.

Since Garrison Keillor did his final show last night we should have him available to be a closer on some deals very soon. Take that Boston and Tom Brady.

Well said.

Magic reach 4-year, $72M deal with Bismack Biyumbo, per @WojVerticalNBA. Now down to just $2M of cap room.

It doesn't sound like the Wolves are too serious about Marvin Williams. I'm ok with that. Plenty of bigs still out there: Pau Gasol, Ryan Anderson, Kris Humphries, Ian Mahinmi, Cole Aldrich

Adrian Wojnarowski ?@WojVerticalNBA
Sources: So far, the delay in getting Marvin Williams' deal complete with Charlotte: The Brooklyn Nets' pursuit of the free agent forward.

Ryan Anderson - 4 x $20 for Houston.

Compared to some of these deals, that's not terribly unreasonable.

Ryan Anderson 4 yrs $80 million. I just would not feel comfortable giving out that kind of money to a guy who can't stay healthy. The Parsons deal also makes me queasy.

Also, why can't more players move east? Seems like all the Western conference teams keep getting better while the East stays largely the same. I guess Dwight moved east at least
