Free agency starts at 6:00 pm tonight.
Early winners:
Utah - Mike Conley makes them a contender in the West.
Pelicans - Zion Williamson plus a haul from the AD trade for a guy that was going to be gone in a year.
Paces - Got TJ Warren for nothing and is about to sign Rubio, and I don't think they are done. Depending on when Oladipo returns, Pacers could challenge in the East.
Celtics - still have a lot of work to do this offseason, but made a huge upgrade at the point guard position. Now need to figure out center.
Pistons - Derrick Rose is a big pick up for a team that is abysmal after Drummond and Griffin.
Early Losers:
Nets - Kyrie Irving is not the best use of max contract money.
Timberwolves - not getting a sniff for Wiggins or from any free agents. KAT is going to have a lonely career.
Hornets - Kemba was a big loss, but this team needs to start over. Hornets will be really bad for a while.
Flirting with Trouble:
Knicks - I can't point to anything specific they are doing wrong, but I am confident they will screw up this offseason.
Lakers - May set a modern record for minimum contract players on a roster after they offer max money to Russell.
76ers - Probably losing Butler, which isn't the end of the world, but they have cap problems and no bench with a team that really needs a bench.
