Stacked Reports: NBA Free Agency News

We are only 10 days away from the awaited event of cricket online betting as the ashes series is about to start on July 12. With several days more to go of waiting, what excitement in the sporting world are you tuning in to? Well, there are still the rugby union matches on online betting Australia.

If you think the thrill and suspense in the NBA has already died down after the finals, think again. This offseason in the best basketball league in the world will have some transactions that are set to really change the playing field for the next season. Let’s look at the NBA free agency news from the different teams and find out about the interesting trades and signings.

 

Mavs looking to acquire Bledsoe, willing to let go of Mayo

During last season, there have been many teams that expressed interests in signing Eric Bledsoe, the athletic backup point guard of the Los Angeles Lakers. It seems, however, that the young point guard is going to land in Dallas. The Mavericks have been struggling the entire season due to the lack of a steady playmaker and having Bledsoe who is somewhat of an understudy of Chris Paul presents plenty of potential for the team.

Marc Stein of ESPN has recently tweeted that the Clippers and Mavericks are discussing a sign-and-trade that will send Bledsoe to Dallas in exchange for OJ Mayo. It’s only a matter of time as the Mavs are still waiting for the result of their pursuit of Dwight Howard before they make any moves.

 

If everything plays out as reported, the Mavs look to get the better of things. OJ Mayo has been inefficient and inconsistent the past season and acquiring a solid point guard with a good potential is certainly an upgrade.

 

Knicks looking to trade for Bargnani, continue being themselves

Time and time again, the Knicks have proven that they make some of the most confusing trades in the world of basketball. They are prone to make careless expensive moves that don’t make any sense from many basketball analysts standpoint. This is exactly what the team is doing right now as reports have been surfacing that they are trying to make a move to acquire Andrea Bargnani from the Toronto Raptors and are willing to send off Steve Novak and several draft picks.

 

The trade doesn’t make a lot of sense since Novak, as of now, is the better shooter and better than Bargnani in several key stats like rebounding. Bargnani’s glaring lack of defense is also a major concern for the Knicks.
