here's a list of the free agents in the nba: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2441631

nazr mohammed is a good replacement for zo in case he retires, but his price may be too high. and miami has to address their need of a point guard, in case payton also decides to retire. i read somewhere that their priority though is giving wade an extention. as it stands, the payroll of miami stands like this:

i think the salary cap is at 54M also all teams have mid-level exception at 5M...

teka di ba finley was offered the full mid level before the season started...sayang ano...

baba pala $$$ si Wade compared to the others..

Yep. But he'll smoke the rest of his team mates when he gets those juicy endorsement deals. He already has the best selling jersey. No doubt he'll get a lot of offers for endorsements before next season even begins. So, everything will probably even out---or maybe he'll even come out ahead.

2003 rookies are eligible for contract extension...mahina ang 10M diyan...

Magkano ba contract ni Starbury? Lugi ba Knick if they will buy out Starbury's contract so they can get rid of that egotistical prick, and Thomas, geez, ano ba yun, la na ba ibang coach dyan.

[ILuvDetailing]

Dwayne Wade is still in his Rookie contract, don't worry tiba tiba yan sa endorsements... The Denver Nuggets, and Detroit Pistons must kicking themselves right now for not drafting him. Carmelo who? Darko... nevermind

Wade will be eligible for a contract extention this offseason.
