2012 NBA Free Agent Watch Thread

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Why is Simmons so salty about the Nets? Every tweet is him shytting on possible deals for Howard.

As a Boston fan, last thing I'm thinking about is the Nets. We just signed Terry. Roster looking good so far fukk that other shyt.

Aldridge is the only person I've seen say they want to keep the Hump.

there's still federal taxes, just not state... when you make that much money state tax isnt that big a deal

I think in NY, state tax is that big of a deal. Don't you get taxed even more if you're employed in NYC on top of that? But yeah, if you want a higher quality of life, then you gotta pay for it.

Living/Working in NYC>>>>>Dallas.

it's all relative at those levels of pay my dude, the taxes in Cali are horrible, but it's doable when you make enough bread, and these guys make lots of bread

Maybe this..

By Bill Simmons on February 10, 2012


It's been fascinating to watch Williams keep that reprehensible Nets team competitive. Nobody feels sorry for him because he ruined the last year of Jerry Sloan's career, and for that he remains in NBA Purgatory — at least until he signs with Dallas this summer.4

4. We're all supposed to pretend this might not happen even though it's a bigger summer lock than Michael Phelps winning a gold medal. I haven't talked to one person "In the Know" who isn't 100 percent convinced that Dallas is getting him. But let's all keep pretending this isn't true.

prob 50% of his salary is being taxed in nyc so if he makes 20 mill a year he'll only see 10

Because they're in the same division, and could be a very big problem.
