    Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)

    btw, why is it that a player like Lopez gets a max deal but Kamen gets less than Landry Fields?

    The NBA can be weird

      There's always going to be a market for younger guys with "potential" and "higher upside".

      It's like that in every sport, not just the NBA.

        Isn't Kamen old? Plus at this point Kamen isn't going to get any better while Lopez is young an can still improve.

          Bring back Gerald Green, bring back Hump on the cheap and maybe sign another veteran PF and we'll be OK.

            ya good points

            and there is a shortage of quality pivots in the league today, which adds to Lopez's value...im just curious why Kaman didnt get much interest at all. 30 is not terribly old for a center. He's done more in the league than Lopez and Hibbert (not saying he's better than those two, but the gap between them is not large at all imo)

            Anyway, quality acquisition by Dallas. Now, they need to work on the back court..

              Kaman is a good pick up for the Mavs.

                Kaman is a good signing but if he starts then opposing bigs are going to man handle Kaman and Dirk. Good thing is their offense could hopefully offset it.

                  I like the pick-up a lot. Giving him a comparable salary for one year of service. Hopefully, we'll be able to stay pretty competitive this year and be in a position to be major players next summer. However, Dirk isn't getting any younger. We need to make moves SOON.

                    Thought Dallas would sign Kaman at some point. It seemed like he was going to the best option for them in free agency. It's too late to amnesty Haywood right?

                      Just posting this to say, it's not always the media stirring the pot. Sometimes it's the players.

                      From Jared Zwerling:

                      Melo & Chris Paul walked through media room here in Vegas & Melo said, referring to CP3, "You'll see him in NY in a couple years."(smiling).
                      Obviously a joke, but hey, if my paycheck depended on it, I'd run with it too.

                          And the entire eastern conference breathes a sigh of relief.
