    NBA Free Agency and Trade Rumors 2

    The other thread got out of hand and lost focus. Let's try to keep this thread for discussions of free agency and trade rumors only.

    Thanks for this new thread. Tweets from http://hoopshype.com/rumors/

    - Magic extends QO to Fournier
    - KD will first meet with GS
    - Saric has an appx $800k buyout (Sixers can contribute up to 650k) if he wants to join the 6ers
    - Marc Stein reporting the Wiz are targeting Batum as their top guy
    - I thought this was pretty foul that someone would say this about Ryno... but:

    Exec on Ryan Anderson: “He is still seen as that ideal stretch-four, but he can’t stay healthy and even when he is healthy, he does not defend.

    Justin Verrier: The Pelicans tendered Tim Frazier a qualifying offer, making him a restricted free agent. His QO is worth $1,180,431.
    So Frazier has his QO.

    Technically, OKC is getting the first meeting on Thursday. They're allowed to talk with him before July 1, and will.

    According to Broussard and Stein.

    Right. I didn't count OKC.. I was mentioning other teams that were gunning for his services. But yeah OKC meets with him tomorrow.

    NBA Rumors

    In other news, Joel Myers just reported on NBA Radio that the NY Knicks are interested in Eric Gordon.
    The most overused words on Pelicansreport.com. Wrongly, I might add.

    ELITE - (often used with a plural verb) the choice or best of anything considered collectively, as of a group or class of persons.

    GREAT - notable; remarkable; exceptionally outstanding

    These words should not be used lightly

    I'd rather sick with Frazier. Man, it's been a downard spiral for Burke.

    The coaching staff is a bad fit for Burke. I'd take him. If the Jazz doesn't want much and I doubt they do I'd make a move for Trey.

    I still think Burke could be a good backup PG in this league. I think Frazier can give you everything Burke does though, so I don't see a good reason to go that route.

    Pretty much.

    Burke might be cheaper than Frazier. He's younger and under team control. Plus he's been a better pro than Frazier to this point.

    Pelicans mention-

    One possible free agent target at shooting guard for the Knicks is Kent Bazemore — New York has “heavy interest” in the Atlanta wing, according to Marc Berman of The New York Post. However, Berman cautions that the Knicks may not have the resources to aggressively pursue Bazemore, since he figures to be seeking $16MM+ per year, and New York will have to address multiple positions in free agency. Per Berman’s source, Bazemore isn’t ruling out suitors like the Knicks and Pelicans, but his preference is to re-sign with the Hawks, if possible.

    His dad would be my only guess that would be foolish enough to give him that much. Good luck.

    Rivers is the reason I have a lot of trouble believing in potential. Dude is 23 and is pretty much exactly the same as he was year 2 for us.

    Makes a lot of sense when you consider that Melo plays best when he's at the 4.
