Hoops Rumors Chat Transcript

4:03pm: We hosted the weekly live chat.

3:00pm: Last year, Rich Paul client LeBron James more or less delayed the annual July free agent frenzy for 11 days as teams and players waited to find out which team the four-time MVP would play for. Eric Bledsoe‘s free agency dragged on the rest of that summer, as the fellow Paul client didn’t re-sign with the Suns until September 24th. Paul is once more at the center of holding patterns, with Tristan Thompson and Norris Cole still unsigned long after comparable talents struck deals. Still, we’ll eventually have resolution with those two, and Paul client Kevin Seraphin agreed Tuesday to sign with the Knicks.

We can discuss the lingering free agents, this week’s deals and much more in today’s chat. Click here to join!

Hoops Rumors Draft Chat Transcript

After months of speculation, the 2015 NBA Draft is finally upon us. While this year’s class of potential draftees doesn’t bring with it quite the same level of hype as 2014’s, there are still a number of players who can change the face of a franchise and develop into tomorrow’s superstars. While the Timberwolves may have already told Karl-Anthony Towns that he’s their man with the No. 1 overall pick, there is still plenty of intrigue as to how the rest of the draft lottery will shake out. There should also be a significant amount of trade talk revolving around tonight’s big event, and quite a few teams could end up dealing away draft picks in exchange for veteran players or future assets.

We’ll be watching all the drama unfold this evening, and you can follow along with us in our live chat.
