Free agent forward Thaddeus Young has reached an agreement with the Chicago Bulls on a three-year, $41 million deal, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

Gerald Green is returning to the Houston Rockets on a one-year deal, agent James Dunleavy tells ESPN.

Rose at $7.5 million per year for two years
JJ Redick at $13 million per year for two years
Thad Young at $13.6 million per year for three years.

All three seem excessive to me, especially Thad's deal. I wonder what, if anything, this tells us about the price Tyus will command in the market. Maybe Gorui's deal isn't so bad at this point with only 2 years left. Teague's $19 millions seems more reasonable now with only one year left.

Those three deals specifically look pretty fair to me.

Yes we're now talking about contracts in the 15-19 million range as reasonable. Wow.

Durant won't be able to play until the 2nd year of his 4-year deal at age 32. Based on what I've read, the odds are against Durant being the player he was when he returns and there's a not insignificant chance he won't be back at all.

I read most players with that injury normally are out of the league two years after they come back.

Indiana is trading a first-round and two future second round picks to the Milwaukee for Malcolm Brogdon, league sources tell ESPN.

David Aldridge @davidaldridgedc
Malcolm Brogdan signs with Indiana for four years and $86 million, per source.

Seems like these deals hurt and help us. Hurt us in that the market for talent seems too expensive right now; help us in that may be Teague and Gorgui aren't so un-moveable after all.
