Sacramento just made a trade with Cleveland, sending Casspi & protected 2012 first round pick for Hickson.

The article mentions Jason Thompson as likely being available now, given Hickson/Cousins/Whiteside at the PF/C position.
Any thoughts about the Raps potentially targeting him? I know he was highly regarded a couple seasons ago and has pretty good rebounding numbers (7.3 rebounds in less than 28 mins, over his career). Could be relatively cheap for a decent young player making only $2.2M on an expiring contract.

He no doubt will be one of the top free agents available. He's come a long way. Last time he was up for contract some were questioning the amount Denver gave him as he was a liability due to injuries up to that point.

As for Portland, it's one year. I don't really understand but I assume if he can't play this next year they will let him go.

Nene To Become A UFA
Nene will opt out of the final year of his contract worth nearly $12 million and, as a result, become an unrestricted free agent, a source familiar with the situation said Wednesday night.
It means Nene can sign with any team he wishes without the Nuggets getting a chance to match the offer when free agency begins after the expected NBA lockout, which likely will start Friday.

Jesus Christ you do NOT give Greg Oden more than 2 or 3 million per year. Who's running the blazers these days?

Whaaaa?
You take a shot at Oden for a couple of million at the most ! Portland is doing a Gilbert Arenas on this. If they pay him for one year at the qualifying offer or give him say 10 million over 3 years, that is not so bad. But Oden can be a franchise killer. And even when he was healthy he was too slow on rotations and coming back to defend the rim. He is a foul machine at his peak. Now, he is a seven foot pylon.
