Jefferson FA Value

The article that I linked to was via Marc Stein and his "sources". The intent of the thread was not to debate if it is legit or not. More to see what people think of Al's value as a FA. If this source was true, the fact that the Rockets would consider a signing player who has been injured all season, not to mention a questionable work ethic over Jefferson, I think is significant. That is because it indicates that maybe the rest of the league realizes that he is a horrible defensive player, and his offensive does not make up for it. Perhaps there will be a team desperate enough for a "star" to sign him at some outrageous contract, but what if his value is falling? Does his value drop enough that the Jazz think they are getting a "star" player at a steal, and resign him?

No.. There are three big men free agents once their signed Al will be the next best bet!!

D12 is staying in LA, josh will go to Dallas and Bynum will go to Portland (they're gluttons for injured players)!

That leaves Cleveland, Orlando, charlotte, Milwaukee, Houston, Philadelphia and possibly Boston needing a big!! That's seven teams that could offer money to Al or Paul the next best big men on the market!

Dallas could even play Jsmooth at SF and still go for Al!!

Hell throw Phoenix and ATL in that conversation!!

Who says they aren't? The Rockets? Or someone with a "source"?

Darryl Morey is a genius; of course the Rockets don't want Jefferson.

Even if Al could defend he's got not place in the most run'n'gun ballclub in the league.
