Here's all the 80+ rated guys I had listed earlier:

C Dwight Howard - 93 OVR - 26 y/o - Minnesota - 4 yr/$77.31M

PG Derrick Rose - 90 OVR - 23 y/o - Chicago - 4 yr/$65.03M

SG OJ Mayo - 89 OVR - 24 y/o - Charlotte - 4 yr/$65.03M

C Tim Duncan - 85 OVR - 36 y/o - Detroit - 2 yr/41.04 M

C Brook Lopez - 85 OVR - 24 y/o - Utah - 5 yr/$81.28M

SF Michael Beasley - 82 OVR - 23 y/o - LA Clippers - 5 yr/$61.82M

PF Anthony Randolph - 83 OVR - 23 y/o - Utah - 4 yr/$50.92M

SG Eric Gordon - 81 OVR - 23 y/o - Cleveland - 4 year/$42.84M

C Nene - 80 OVR - 29 y/o - Phildelphia - 5 yr/$61.27M



Golden State signs Kirk Hinrich to a 4 year/$28 million deal. Rudy Fernandez joins Howard in Minnesota with a 5 year/$38 million deal.


I have to say that I'm very disappointed to see Derrick Rose back to Chicago. He was dreadfully unhappy there. I go look at the Bulls roster and see that they now have Rose and Jordan Price both listed as Starters. Why that couldn't have happened without him leaving the team and coming back I don't know. Assuming that sticks, the starting lineup of Rose, Price, Deng, Boozer and Oden probably becomes the best in the league. Rose/Price/Boozer is like Allen/Pierce/Garnett in Boston except two of them are only 23.


Utah immediately becomes a force out west, signing two very high level big men to go along with Deron Williams.


Minnesota.... SIGHS... Al Jefferson is rated 90 OVR, Kevin Love 80 OVR, and they go and sign Dwight Howard. WHY!?!? I think they just created the same situation that Chicago had with Price and Rose, except there's really no place to put all 3 bigs.


Still, we have now for the first time seen a couple of elite level talents change teams in OJ Mayo and Dwight Howard.
