The Nuggets acquired Cam Johnson, and he comes from nowhere near Wisconsin. But with the money they saved, also got Hardaway, he’s good, but he’s no David Thompson.

Bruce Brown was like more of a bonus, not to mention there’s Jonas Valancianas. Though he may play in Greece, the guy’s seven feet, and for Jokic good minutes he’d loan us.

In OKC Nikola Topic should play, SGA and J Williams got paid. The Twolves re-signed Naz Reid just in time, but Alexander-Walker still done walk away.

Anfernee Simons to Boston is fact, son. Jrue Holiday in Portland, reaction? The Lakers acquired Deandre Ayton, hardly Gary Payton, Portland calls that addition by subtraction.

In Golden State, what’s the fate of Kaminga. Got a deal on the table and I’ll ring ya. They wanted Durant, to join in the band, but Durant went to Houston -Bazinga!

And finally the Jazz, in last place alone, have a pretty strong Ace up their sleeve. They haven’t been relevant since Karl Malone, and soon young Ace Bailey will leave.

The Clippers seem chipper though they lost Norman Powell, Brook Lopez is as old as can be. But Ballmer’s not ready to throw in the towel with LA team AARP.

The Lakers deal makers found a big man indeed, but the young man had three awful traits. Ayton rebounds and scores, which one can’t ignore, doesn’t care, can’t defend, usually late.

Now the Kings, they’re the kings of making bad trades, Haliburton and Fox, a foul odor. But to get in return, the ultimate burn, 3yrs/$45 million for Dennis Schroder.

Memphis is Memphis, always the same, signed JJJ to the max. Got Ty Jerome, but lost Desmond Bane, now Jackson’s injured, no backs.

And the Spurs played it slow signing big Luke Kornet and Dylan Harper with pick number two. A tall wall white guy we know, but we’ll all soon forget, although I did hear that dear Wemby grew.

New Orleans, oh Pelicans, you loveable fool, adding old Kevin Looney to the mix. And who thinks the answer could be young Jordan Poole, when it’s clear Zion’s weight you should fix.

Cooper Flagg can shoot, Cooper Flagg can pass, and we know Cooper Flagg he can hustle. Kyrie’s kind of hurt, but he still got his bag, but who wins with D’Angelo Russell.

The Rockets and the Suns are going in two different ways, Houston got Dorian Finney-Smith. Then Houston stole KD during the Suns’ rebuilding phase, Dillon Brooks is now pleading the fifth. (Like not talking trash)

The Celtics are in trouble, Tatum’s really hurt, and even Kornet couldn’t hang. Couldn’t sign a Porzingis and Garza lacks spurt, hard to build around Georges Niang.

Raptors took Murray-Boyles with the number nine pick, Jakob Poeltl, guess he fills a need. He’s taller than hell but he’s no Grady Dick, at $80 million, all guaranteed.

In Detroit, Duncan Robinson signed for three years, for Beasley his case on appeal. Before fixing games, barbershops, felonies. His meals are now measly, for real.

What’s the hell is with Chicago at all? A million trades and it’s Okoro for Ball? As for Cleveland it’s Morell’s but I say what the hell, I think Ty Jerome can ball.

In Orlando, I mentioned Desmond Bane. Signed Banchero for dinero, got game. As for Charlotte, not simple, they draft Kon Knueppel, But Dinwiddie, and Connaughton are lame.

Atlanta, they usually suck hard. But Porzingis, Alexander-Walker, Kannard. The team has a chance, the Pacers at glance, lost Turner and Halliburton and don’t guard.

The Knicks got Jordan Clarkson and a coach. Possible this team could actually host. Don’t think that we’ll see, Lillard or Milwaukee, and a few big injuries, they could coast.

Cam Whitmore a Wizard, it’s true. Picked up for a second-round or two. Got McCollum as well, though he’s older than hell, got Tre Johnson (although he should’ve stayed in school.).

Finally, there’s Brooklyn’s Sean Marks, drafting first-rounders in the dark. Contracts for Terrance Mann, yelling out, “Lieutenant Dan!” I’d drug test but I’m not a narc.

Does that help you how free agency is done? Teams, players, and rhymes, was it fun? Was it just a waste of time? Is Dame Dolla now Dame Dime? Will Sean Marks trade for Matt McClung?
