How much will Belli cost? He is a great backup

No idea. Because he is a UFA, his contract depends on what the market will bear.


The plus side for us is that we can pay him more and for longer than any other team because we have his Bird rights. We can also go over the cap to pay him.

The minus side is that he got paid $4M last year, so that is a cap hold out there which limits our ability to sign new players if we don't renounce his rights.


If I had to pull a random number out for him, I would guess something in the high 2s or low 3s. That is pure opinion though.

I met him at some sort of "meet and greet" at the Arena the second year the team was here. Motherfricker had a bottle of hand sanitizer next to him and sprayed after each handshake.

If they want Belli, just put a clause in his contract about 50% of at Lucy's and we can definitely get a hometown discount.

D Will would be amazing. I love CP3, but I think D Will's health is a little better. Anyone know what type of yearly money he's going to be looking for? Will it be a max contract or close to it?

He's the hottest FA on the market. He's going for the big $$$$

No he wants to be a winner. He has enough money. The team he thinks he can win a championship with is where he wants to go.

Unfortunately OKC and Miami have no need for his services. No championship for him anytime soon.

I would like to see the Hornets go after Dragic and Hawes. Hawes was great last season and Dragic showed what he could do when given the chance.

The cap is unchanged. That affects all the deals, or rather, we know it does not affect them.

Never any doubt that the Hornets would match Eric Gordon's offer sheet from Phoenix. Unclear if it will play out like Hibbert though.

Despite New Orleans' intent to match, the Suns will go through with their plan to sign Eric Gordon to an offer sheet, league source says.
