Haywards Atlanta landing spot just dried up completely.  

Gallinari is a free-agent oddity, a player over the age of 30 who signed for $20 million-plus per year and has never made an All-Star team, a first under the most recent collective bargaining agreement (2017).

kdp,

GREAT JOB!!  

(Welcome to my world.  LOL)

Detroit signs a Plumlee (physical low post defense) and Okafor (physical low post offense).  I guess they're not buying into the "New NBA stretch 5" idea quite yet.

Bobby Portis agrees to 2-year, $7.5M deal with Milwaukee Bucks


9:14 AM PT


Free agent forward Bobby Portis has agreed to a two-year, $7.5 million deal with the Milwaukee Bucks, his agent Mark Bartelstein of Priority Sports told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski on Saturday.

The deal also includes a player option.

The New York Knicks had declined the $15.75 million team option on Portis' contract on Thursday.

Portis averaged 10.1 points and 5.1 rebounds for the Knicks last season. He has also played for the Chicago Bulls and Washington Wizards during his five NBA seasons, averaging 10.2 points and 5.9 rebounds for his career.

Veteran forward Trevor Ariza is headed to his fourth team this week as part of a three-team trade involving the Detroit Pistons, Dallas Mavericks and Oklahoma City Thunder, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

Ariza will be rerouted from Detroit to Oklahoma City in a deal that sends forward Justin Jackson to Oklahoma City, power forward James Johnson to the Mavericks and guard Delon Wright to the Pistons, sources said.

It is the third trade this week involving Ariza, who has played for nine teams in his 16-year NBA career. The Portland Trail Blazers sent Ariza along with two first-round picks to the Houston Rockets for forward Robert Covington. The Rockets rerouted Ariza and a first-round pick to Detroit in what turned into a sign-and-trade deal that allowed Houston to add center/power forward Christian Wood plus a protected future first-rounder. Then the Pistons passed Ariza ($12.8 million expiring contract) on to the Thunder.

Moving Wright and Jackson in return for Johnson opens a roster spot for the Mavs, which was Dallas' primary motivation for the deal, sources said. The Mavericks also value the toughness of the 6-foot-7, 240-pound Johnson, whose $16 million expiring contract could be useful in future trade discussions.

The Thunder received an undisclosed draft pick from the Pistons in the deal along with Jackson, who averaged 5.5 points per game as a Mavs reserve last season and is due $5 million this season in the final year of his contract.

Wright, 28, who has two years worth $17.5 million remaining on his contract, has averaged 7.3 points and 2.9 assists for three teams in his career.

MY NOTE: I never thought Trevor Ariza would become "a Bogan", getting passed around like a party girl because of his contract. Bogan was a bad egg. Ariza might be past his shelf life but he's a steady veteran influence and a good locker room guy.

George Hill seems to be number two on the "pass around the contract" game
