Looks like the Wolves has reached out to Willie Reed also. Not sure if anyone has seen this.

Good find there. That'd be a good signing. A relatively young big, not a lot of tread on the tires, and should be less than $5mill per year.

Yeah Doogie tweeted it and I read it and was just about to post link and you beat me too it. Sounds like a good end of the bench player to have who can give quality minutes on an at need basis.

We better take up Dieng on his willingness to extend at 15 Million a year. With backups getting more than 17 Million a year, I think he'll want more soon.

Assuming Pek and KG are here, we're going to need a big guy like that to go along with Belly on the bench.

I agree that this may be the time to do it. I'd rather use the Jefferson and Mozgov deals as leverage now than wait and see Mahinmi, Ezeli, etc. sign near Mozgov's level and give the leverage to Dieng. Offer him a 4 year deal at $13 mil per.

An Indy sportswriter tweeted: With Al Jefferson agreeing to his 3-year deal with the #Pacers, Ian Mahinmi will not return to Indiana, per league source.
Lets go after Mahinmi! He's a defensive anchor, but younger and healthier than Noah.

Another defensive big option could be Bogut if Golden State wants to unload him to us. Like Noah, he's 31 and has had injuries, but his contract is only 11 Million and expires in a year.

Delladova nearing 4 year deal with Bucks for roughly 9 mil per. I like that move for the Bucks if it happens. Good insurance for the Greek Freak PG experiment this season. I'd prefer Delly @ $9mil per over Lin $12mil per.

Mahinmi is reported to want a deal like Mozgov. That's too much for us if you ask me.
