I have been gone for a while but I think the Spurs have done a good job so far. The Spurs got alot younger by trading Bowen, Oberto and Thomas for Jefferson. I really like that move. I didn't like it for Milwaukee because right after that they trade Oberto for Johnson who even though I like him is alot less proven of a player. Also, Cleveland got Shaq who isn't as good as he used to be but it will help keep the opposing bigs honest and also got rid of wallace's HUGE contract. Lakers basically traded Artest for Ariza which is a good move, maybe not long-term but a very very good move. Talk it up!

It's too early to start voting. So far, I think San Antonio did the best, but FA didn't even really start yet.

maybe a homer pick but i really like what the nets did
we have a lineup of harris-lee-_____-jianlin-lopez going into the future, and only about 25 mil of cap taken up for next offseason... i dont think jianlin can be the starting PF so the nets theoretically can offer two 15 mil contracts... LEBRON AND AMARE

Its been a busy one thus far, but there is no way to judge who has been the best quite yet. Lets wait and see what happens with some other guys. Im interested to see where Artest, Bibby, Marion, & Odom end up.

If i were to call it now, I would say Oklahoma City. Getting Harden and Mullens gave them great prospects to develop with their already very young team, and I like their youth and potential to be a great core group of players going forward.
With a trio of Westbrook, Harden and Durant scoring the ball, along with Jeff Green, they have good depth in the backcourt and on the wings. Mullens gives them a potentially great center. Suttle, but good moves.

Also OKC is going after Paul Millsap, if they could get him or even David Lee I'd call that a pretty good off season.

Man if Cleveland really gets Artest look out, I don't think he's staying with Houston now...and Ron loves to play with big stars...who is bigger than Lebron and Shaq?

LeBron's the SF... Lebron can play 1-4, and Artest can play 2-4. Artest was the 2 guard once T-mac went down last year, I don't think it matters really what you call each of them as long as they are both on the court.

LeBron's the SF... Artest is strong enough to play the 4. LeBron could really play any position. Just as long as he's not a headcase, 'cause it seems like Rick Adelman has been the only coach that seems to be able to keep him until control so far.

Iverson considering joining GrizzliesLOL, what's wrong with Memphis? They're supposed to be rebuilding, but bringing in guys like Randolph, and now maybe AI? If I were Gay (don't take this the wrong way )/Mayo/Conley/Thabeet, I wouldn't be very happy.

True but it looks like Lebron isn't getting Artest...Kobe is

Glad the Raptors didn't sign Hedo, the guy is declining and 10M a season plus renouncing all our FA's was just too much to pay.

Dear God....I hate myself. Greedy little b*tch Hedo went for more money. -.- W/e though, off to search for a PG better than little ol' Blake.
