2010 NBA Free Agency July 16th-July 20th.

Well, its for sure been a minute since I've posted, and though I may think the world revolves around me from time to time (ok, all the time), just because I haven't been reporting the news, doesn't mean theres no news to report. So, to jump right into it, heres whats been taking place in the league...

-Chicago Bulls sign Ronnie Brewer to a 3 year, $12.5 million deal (and boy oh boy am I proud of my Bulls for not letting the whole Lebron scandal get the best of them, still continuing to search for prime free agents who can help out their already solid roster).
-Chicago Bulls sign C.J. Watson to a 2 year, $6.5 million deal (again, props to my Bulls for getting busy and pulling in talent).
-Nate Robinson (or Nate the Great as many like to call him) returns to the Boston Celtics (and as much as I dislike them, I think he deserves more tick because he certainly helped them out in crucial moments during this year's Playoffs).
-Houston Rockets sign Brad Miller to a 3 year, $15 million deal (and you better believe he'll be missed here in Chicago).
-Matt Barnes is leaving the Orlando Magic and going to the Toronto Raptors on a 2 year, $9 million deal.
-Wes Matthews is joining the Portland Trailblazers on a 5 year, $33 million deal.
-John Howard is still "considering" playing for the Washington Wizards.
-Atlanta Hawks are said to be interested in Shaq (can he retire already? I mean, hes lovable, but I think hes days are numbered...)
-A rumor (and what I hope stays as that, and only that) that the Chicago Bulls are interested in Eddie House is beginning to spread.
-Boston Celtics, Miami Heat, LA Lakers and the Charlotte Bobcats are all said to be looking into Larry Hughes (personally, I'd welcome him back to the Bulls with open arms but I know I'm one of few that feels that way).
-Miami Heat sign Juwan Howard, earning the $1.3 million veteran's minimum.

And there you have it. All I can say is I wish basketball season started sooner because I am beyond anxious (and excited) to see how the league will perform after all this movement and rebuilding of teams. After all, there is a reason that this summer, summer of 2010, was so hyped up...
