Hornets Off-Season: Free-Agency Rumors
Published 7/2/2008 at Hornets247.com Blog
... I'm still wondering though, what big man the Hornets are targeting.  There's been a lot of rumblings in the organization that they have one in mind, but no reports have surfaced that I've seen.  Diop appears to be off the market already - going to Dallas.  Turiaf is restricted.  Najera has said he wants the same amount he made last year.(When he was overpaid) Chris Andersen has been brought in by the Celtics to work out for them.  Hope something surfaces soon. ...

Celtics focused on re-signing Posey
For the NBA champion Boston Celtics , free agency begins today with James Posey as the primary focus. Most other personnel matters will be handled after Posey's situation is settled.

The arrival of draft picks J.R. ...

The free agent list in 2010 doesn’t look too bad either. While everyone is jockying for ...
