2014 Free Agency Watch Thread

Love brings 24 and 12 with great 3 point shooting. Wiggins is a rookie who could end up being nothing. Why the Cavs haven't done the deal yet is what I question. There was a rumor recently that the 6ers wanted Waiters so they might get involved in the trade with Thad Young to offer.

 

You shouldn't overhype Love's stats. He's still playing for the T-Wolves.

I forgot they can't count in Minnesota.

24 and 12 is impressive no matter what team you're playing for(especially with Love's efficiency). I think the Cavs are just hesitant because Wiggins could very well be much better than Love eventually.

We will see.

I also think part of it is Wiggins looks like he'd definitely take a few years to develop. LeBron honestly might lose a step by the time Wiggins is ready. Love is ready now.

Right, it's not like 24 and 12 becomes 12 and 6 on a good team.

 

The problem is, his numbers are inflated as they aren't contributing to wins and he doesn't have to defer as much.

 

He's not a fraud but he's also not a top 5 nba player.

The Orlando Magic are on track to sign second-round pick Devyn Marble within the next 24 hours -- perhaps later today.

I expect him to have a D League All Star year for the Erie Bayhawks this season.

I think Marble has a good chance to make the team seeing as he's a shooter and that's something we are in shorter supply of.

 

Personally, if Gordon doesn't develop this season as a #4 pick should, I could see him going down to the D-League to get more minutes and work on his offensive skills against lower competition. Not sure if a lottery pick in the top 5 has ever been to the D-League in year one, but Gordon is just that far away in terms of contributing against NBA players at this point, in my opinion

[bhnole 153]

I think Marble makes the team but with Dipo, Fournier, Ben Gordon and even Harkless at SG minutes will be scarce.

 

Hennigan wanted a dedicated D League affiliate like OKC has to develop players who use to sit at the end of the bench getting garbage minutes (i.e. Doron Lamb).

 

I think Dedmon, Marble and maybe Osby if he gets a camp invite will spend a lot of time in Erie this year.

The Orlando Magic have agree on a three-year contract with second-round pick Devyn Marble.

The three-year deal will fully guarantee Marble's rookie season, while his second and third year will become guaranteed after specific trigger dates.

[Fultz4thewin 2,464]

Unless things have changed, players in the D-league that we sign to contracts still count against our roster limit. Someone is going to get cut. My guess is willie green.
