This was an interesting read, particularly because of the little parentheticals and asides (though these guys have nothing on KC Johnson!). It's a nice little rundown, though not the intensive review of CBA/FA rules that some of you are more familiar with, I'm sure.

Looks like the official coaching roster has been set.

There was some chat amongst fellow BABers about whether or not the number on Rose' jersey matters to anyone. Scoop Jackson dissects Rose's choice and tells the story of the late Ben Wilson. A good short read if you don't know the history of the og #25...

I spoke with long-time guy Ryan from HoopsAddict on his podcast. There's other interviews, but for those impatient ones out there, fret not: I'm first.

Scroll down to see the vid of him talking. Talks about Rose, the summer league, and some other things. He sounds ultra excited about playing with D.Rose.

Highlights - "We don't have a playmaker, and he brings a whole different aspect to the game that we don't have..."

It's not like you all expected him back anyway, but there's proof. It looks like he'll sign with New York or my favorite team, the Orlando Magic.

What can you all tell me about Duhon? I know he has a reputation as a horrible shooter, above-average defender, and partier extraordinaire. And I get the sense that he never exactly endeared himself to Bulls fans. But what do you guys think?

I appreciate any feedback you can give me.

I've been wondering if they'd settle since the experts I've been reading have said the decision was going to be a close one.

Details still to come, but I'm guessing with a settlement that OKC gets basketball next season.

Regardless of my opinions of the whole ordeal, add the Sonics to my list of teams Kirk can go to. ;)

Swapping superstars? Don't bet on it; But the Warriors supposedly offered Brand "$100 million over five years", more lucrative than the Clips offer.

Soft power engaged.
