The San Antonio Spurs have traded reserve point guard Curtis Jerells to the New Orleans Hornets in exchange for a second round draft pick.
 
The power would be the best. Miami Heat's Bosh, Wade and Lebron. This will rock every game.
 
The Indiana Pacers have exercised the Team Options on the contract of the following players for the 2011-2012 season.

PG Darren Collison $1.8 Million
PF Tyler Hansbrough $1.2 Million
 
The Denver Nuggets have exercised the fourth year option of guard Ty Lawson for the 2011-2012 Season.
 
The Washington Wizards have released forward Adam Morrison.

I doubt any other NBA team is going to sign him. Unfortunately the no. 3 Draft Pick of 2006 could end up as an all time bust (Even though he warmed up the Lakers bench really well and won 2 NBA Championships)

Maybe he could play in the D-League or try his luck in Europe.
 
Blazers ship Bayless to Hornets for first-round pick

NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- The New Orleans Hornets have acquired point guard Jerryd Bayless from the Portland Trail Blazers for a conditional future first-round pick.

The deal Saturday gives Bayless a chance to back up All-Star Chris Paul and reunites him with new Hornets coach Monty Williams, an assistant in Portland the last two seasons.

Bayless was taken by Indiana with the No. 11 pick in the 2008 draft and traded to Portland in a draft-day trade. He made 11 starts last season, averaging 12.6 points, and has scored 6.8 points per game for his career.

I'm really surprised that he hasn't stuck in the NBA. He's a very good player. Or at least he was in college. He's got a good NBA body, too. I guess that SG/SF position is the most crowded in the NBA, though...

I'm also surprised that Chris Quinn hasn't found an NBA team. He's very reliable. A team like Chicago would do good to pick him up and run him alongside Derrick Rose during those long 3rd quarter stretches. Ah, well. Hopefully a top-tier European team will see him. Perhaps he could play well in a good domestic league over there.
 
Miami released Patrick Beverley and Da'Sean Butler. Back to Europe for Beverley?
 
It has been a month since the Indiana Pacers have placed the following players on the trading block:

F Dahntay Jones
F Solomon Jones

Initially, the Indiana Pacers were looking for a Two for One deal in hopes for finding a legitimate Power-Forward. It is expected that the Pacers will waive S. Jones to comply with the mandatory 15 man roster of the NBA, at this point where Tip-Off for the 2010-2011 Regular Season is just hours away.
 
The Memphis Grizzlies had exercised the contracts of the following players:

OJ Mayo (4th year contract / 2012-2013)
Darell Arthur (4th year contract / 2012-2013)
Hasheem Thabeet (3rd year contract / 2011-2012)
 
Free Agent Veteran Center Erick Dampier is set to sign a contract with the Houston Rockets.
 
The Memphis Grizzlies and starting point guard Mike Conley Jr. have agreed to a contract extension worth $40 Million in a span of 4 Years.
 
rumor has it, Horford wants to play on a team with a real Starting Center and a Passing-First point guard. so I don't see Horford re-signing unless he has a real horrible year.

ATLANTA -- The Atlanta Hawks agreed Monday to a five-year, $60 million contract extension with All-Star center Al Horford.

The team reached the deal with Horford just ahead of a deadline that would have opened the door for one of their stalwart players to become a restricted free agent next summer. Horford confirmed the terms in an e-mail to The Associated Press.

"I wanted to get it done for security and just to focus on the team this year," Horford wrote while en route to Cleveland, where the Hawks (3-0) face the Cavaliers on Tuesday.

The 24-year-old Horford was the No. 3 overall pick in 2007 out of Florida, helping the Gators win back-to-back national championships. He quickly established himself as one of the team's most valuable players, even as an undersized center who had to outwork many of the bigger players he went against.

Horford finished second in the NBA rookie of the year voting to Kevin Durant. Last season, the Atlanta player averaged career highs in points (14.2) and rebounds (9.9) while becoming the first Hawks draft pick to make the All-Star Game since Kevin Willis in 1992. He finished eighth in the shooting percentage (.551) and also was among the top 10 in rebounding.

"From the moment he arrived in Atlanta, Al has been a large part of our success," general manager Rick Sund said in a statement. "The winning tradition he brought to the franchise as a rookie out of Florida has extended to three consecutive playoff seasons in a Hawks uniform. In addition, he was deservedly recognized as an All-Star last year, and we certainly look forward to his continued development as we move forward."

The Hawks were eager to lock up another member of their core group after re-signing Joe Johnson to a maximum $124 million deal over the summer. In recent years, the team also has reached hefty, multiyear deals with Josh Smith and Marvin Williams.

With the signing of Horford, Atlanta can turn its attention to guard Jamal Crawford, winner of last year's sixth man of the year award. He is eligible for free agency after the season and expressed a desire to remain with the Hawks after making the playoffs for the first time in his career.

I just saw this on Yahoo. The biggest thing that this trade does is open up space for Jose Calderon in Toronto. I guess Toronto wants Peja's expiring contract, too.

Peja is pretty far removed from his days in Sacramento. That one year before Divac and Webber left, Peja was a legitimate MVP candidate. He was scoring 25 points a night and shooting 50%. One of the great campaigns in recent years. Unfortunately that team fell hard to LA and an unfortunate and terribly-referred Game 5 and Game 6.

But man, those Sacramento teams were so much fun to watch. Bibby could run, Webber and Divac were beautiful in the post, Stojakovic and Bobby Jackson were knocking down threes, Turkoglu was slashing to the hoop...that was a great team.

New Orleans will give David Anderson some good minutes. He's a productive player in limited minutes.
 
The Washington Wizards have signed forward Alonzo Gee and waived reserved point guard Lester Hudson.
