if there's a player without an agent pm to me and a deal will be discussed, I won't gain any profit for the player

James Posey is disappointed in the lack of interest in him, he would be fine with signing for a contending team for the MLE but hasn't gotten that kind of offer yet.
Joel Pryzbilla, Leon Powe and Carl Landry feel the same way

there's a couple of undrafted players who have gotten 2 million per year for 3 years type deals, one of them was a Bearcat last year in college.

Steve Francis has an offer on the table to play in Italy worth 15 million in the first year, he still wants to play in the NBA and doesn't really want to play overseas, but if no one offers for him, he will likely take Italy's offer and never come back to the NBA.
Mike James is also looking over offers to play overseas, but wants atleast 3 million in salary this upcoming season, James has told me that if he still doesn't have a good enough offer by day 4 of FA, he's taking the best offer he can to go overseas.
Kurt Thomas might hang it up if he doesn't receive a vet minimum offer from another team this offseason, he's happy with the career he's had up to this point, but doesn't want to stick around during the season and wait for a team to offer him a deal. He's making it known to all teams that it's now or never if a team wants to acquire his services. Juwan Howard, Jerry Stackhouse, Earl Boykins,Theo Ratliff and Jason Williams all feel the same way.
Yi Jianlian isn't liking the NBA experience very much after getting drafted against his word during the NBA draft when the Bucks picked him fifth and is probably a day away from returning to China. He's making it known to NBA teams that he only wants a 1 year deal and that team better treat him well or he's leaving for China next offseason (possibly sooner).
after being amnestied and clearing waivers, Jason Smith is really hoping teams take an interest in him, the 24 year old big man has alot of promise and wants to continue to grow in the NBA, but that doesn't mean he will wait forever for a team to offer him a deal.
Ike Diogu is a star player........ In Nigeria and is begging a team to sign him to whatever deal they want to sign him, he doesn't want to go back there, but will be force to if he doesn't sign a deal soon.

Posey has 2 MLE offers and he will hold out for other offers, he wants to contend this year and win another ring, so whoever offers him the best opportunity to do that will get him, but he will wait another day for offers.
Rumors tell me that both teams are big market teams right now.

Przybilla is insulted that the best offer he has gotten is the LLE when he feels he's clearly worth the MLE, given that Dalembert just signed with Denver for just the same amount of money, Pryz is demanding the MLE or he won't be around for very long.

Steve Francis has an offer on the table to play in Italy worth 15 million in the first year, he still wants to play in the NBA and doesn't really want to play overseas, but if no one offers for him, he will likely take Italy's offer and never come back to the NBA. Steve Francis will take up Italy's offer and join them over there for the price they offered, Francis won't be coming back to the NBA Shaun Livingston wants to stay in the NBA and hopes teams give him atleast the minimum, if not he will be forced to retire from the league (doesn't want to play overseas) Jereme Richmond will be going to China to play ball, he's 19 and knows he will be back next year to try for the NBA again when he gets better. He wants atleast the minimum next year if he were to join an NBA team. Javaris Crittenton is likely done with the NBA after the incident he got in with Gilbert arenas last year teams seem not to want him at all, he's very sorry to the Wizards organization for what he caused and understands that his actions cost him his career. Kalin Lucas and Jon Scheyer are both hoping for minimum deals, they're the two best outside shooters among undrafted rookies and feel they can add a spark off the bench. If neither get the deal they want, they're both bound to play overseas. After Henderson lost out on joining the Nuggets he wants another team to give him the MLE, if he doesn't get it in the next two days, he's going overseas.

Earl Boykins and Jason Williams have retired from the NBA, both have held out for offers and have no received any so they will finish their careers while still being remembered.
Diop wants an LLE deal from someone, if he does not receive it, he's going overseas
After being cut from the Clippers, Warren would like to sign with a team for the minimum.
Stanley Robinson, Ryan Thompson,Jon Scheyer,Walter Sharpe,Malcolm Thomas and Dionte Christmas have all received offers to play overseas, if they don't get minimum offers in 24 hours, they will go overseas.
Yi Jianlian is headed to China after not receiving any offers he likes, he won't be coming back.
Saer Sene also wants the LLE, given that he's 23 he feels he is worth more, but he just wants to play on a team this year.
Dan Gadzuric wants the LLE before day 3 is over, if he does not get it, he's leaving
Earl Watson feels he's a good PG for teams looking for a back up guard spot and has told me he wants the LLE
Jamario Moon wants to continue his NBA career, he will sign with any team that gives him the minimum
despite his incident with Al Horford, T.J. Ford would still like to play, he feels he's worth the MLE and will hold out until day 5.
Steve Blake wants the LLE from a team after being amnestied by the Jazz
Carl Landry would like a deal longer then a 1 year deal, if he does not get it he's going overseas
Tyrus is also in the same boat as Landry, 25 years old, he definitely expects teams to offer him more then 1 year worth of salary.
Jason Smith will wait another day for the right offer to come across, if not he will go overseas for a year.
Nenad wants the LLE by the end of today, or he's headed to Serbia
Sam Young will sign with any team for the minimum
