Official NBA Off-Season Thread. New 2012-2013 Thread Has Been Made. Please Post In There

I've been hearing the Grizz have had contract discussions with Nocioni.

After that injury plagued season he had, I'm not sure how much he has left in the tank. But, he fits the bill of being tough and can shoot it. If he gets a deal, it'll only be for the minimum because that's all we have.

Bulls closing in on Nzar and "attempting" to sign Malcolm Thomas.

I like Noc for cheap. He is dirty, and is somewhat paradoxally a massive flopper, but he agitates guys and gets under their skin defensively. There is still a few guys out there who can help teams IMO, but Presti is married to Lazar Hayward, Cole Aldrich (I know hes guaranteed because he was the 11 pick but just buy his *** out and sign someone useful, I'll take Hilton Armstrong) wasting space out there because they're good character guys and sing in the choir at their church

We didn't play Nocioni at all pretty much the entire 2 or 3 years that he was a Sixer. I think he's past washed up. Didn't even look too good in warmups whenever I'd watch at Sixers games.

NBA schedules release later this week

The Phoenix Suns will have a new look next season.

Sort of.

According to Uni-Watch.com, many NBA teams will be adding a jersey for next season, including the Suns.

"I saw the Spring 2013 Adidas NBA Catalog and there are some new on-court offerings," says Chris Blackstone. "There are new jerseys for Christmas Day and for home weekend games during the second half of season, called the Winter Court jerseys. They're monochrome like the all- black Miami uniforms from the past couple years, but in team colors. 

Also, there are Hardwood Classic jerseys for Indiana (home from 1997-98 through 2004-05)

Milwaukee (late '90s)

Chicago (mid-'90s alternate)

Atlanta (late-'90s road)

Miami (late-'90s alternate)

Sacramento (mid-'90s alternate)

Phoenix (1990s alternate)

Philly (early-'90s road)

Cleveland (mid-'90s road)

Toronto (late-'90ss home)

Houston (late-'90s road)

and Utah (late-'90s road)."

I also like Delfino. I'm not sure why no one has picked him up. He probably won't sign for the minimum, though.

 

[Ja's 2¢]

What is AJ Price's potential if he gets some legit PT? a solid backup? for the people that saw him play in Indy.

Bruh I barely remember him sniffing the floor honestly

 

[jayykay]

I'm not a fan of jerseys with big *** characters consuming most of the space like raptors, hawks, or rockets... Especially rockets 

Loving other 90's jerseys though!

Broussard now saying the Magic might hold onto Dwight until the trade deadline. Let's be real, if the Magic didn't take what the Nets have to offer, going back to last season, why would they take what they have to offer at the deadline? Which team that hasn't been mentioned now, would all of a sudden jump in at the deadline? Houston might not even bother and just move on, as, their whole thing is to get Dwight to start the season and hope he warms up to them or have Bynum as a possible exit strategy.

 

[Humbled]

GOD YES TO THOSE JERSEYS

 

[essential1]

Magic organization

 

[shox23]

those jerseys personified the 90s perfectly, that being said some of them are ugly, would cop the heat and suns jerseys and maybe the raptors

 

[dman14]

teams are filling out their rosters. the magic organization has to pull a deal soon. i cant see them having dwight when the season starts or waiting til the trade deadline. what are they gonna do, deactivate him? houston has the rookies and a bunch of picks to offer and probably can make a deal. i dont see a team like the lakers, who are always contending, make a deal mid-season. dwight needs to give them a list of teams and the magic need to get something done or lose him for nothing.

That's going to be an extremely awkward 4 months.

Milwaukee (late '90s)

Wrong uniform. They're wearing these.

His list is
1. Nets
2. Lakers

Hennigan is too busy being the worst GM possible and doesn't see he is just killing his leverage day by day

 

[Peep Game]

I actually don't miss those Rockets throwbacks posted up there Loved the ones before that though. The pinstripes...damn...those were ugly. Those Bulls, Hawks, and Kings

pretty much 

Royce White/Jeremy Lamb and Donates Motiejunas are gonna ball and it's gonna be tough

to give one of those guys up for a chance at a possible second round exit and dwight going elsewhere

why would they take on hedo's contract and give up a prospect just so u can rent dwight fro 3 months?

and if the rockets do compete for say a 6th seed with  such a young team , dwights gonna go there regardless

and u  still have  your 3 lottery rookies and a chance to sign dwight

Jeremy Lin

jerem lamb

royce white

donates motiejunas

dwight howard/asik

THATS.SCARY.

Raptors wearing their 90's throwbacks for Hardwood Classics this season

Unless they plan on releasing authentic versions of all the throwbacks then IDC

yeah, you know why? cause he thinks he can build another okc.. since he was there, now he wants to bring that same mentality to orlando, but he's not realizing he's screwing up his own team and is gonna wear out his welcome very soon

0shot at CP and D12. CP won't leave the Clippers. And Dwight would sign with ATL before he goes to or stays with Houston.

Only way Rockets land D12 for a year rental is take 2 of 3 (1. Trade all picks. 2. Take on **** contracts. 3. Trade all young talent).

Basically. The only thing scary about that guy's post is Royce White trying to play small forward.
