    There will be more teams than just Pistons Magic Hawks and Lakers.
    Celtics for one.

    As for the photo it's true. I always found Horford one of the most handsome nba players.

    Idk, Detroit is building a nice young squad and Drummond has a ways to go before he reaches his full potential

    What is Dallas doing with all these bigs? Changing the league with a starting 5 that includes Luka, Porzingis, Horford and maybe even Mejri or Giannis little brother who's 6'10.

    The use of "hella" here is still confusing the **** out of me.

    Shouldn't it at least be followed by an adjective?

    He might not be a superstar like some of the others in this class, but Al Horford's entry into the free-agent market has sent numerous teams into a tizzy trying to get his valued services. Much like three years ago when a number of teams rushed to offer him a max contract when he decided to leave the Atlanta Hawks, Horford is in such massive demand across the league that he's very likely to get the four-year, $100 million-plus deal he's seeking by opting out of his deal in Boston.

    In addition to teams like the Dallas Mavericks and New Orleans Pelicans who instantly emerged as possible landing spots, league sources say there are a few surprise bidders who are trying to land the veteran big man. These include the Sacramento Kings and Philadelphia 76ers.

    The Kings are interested in adding a center this offseason and there's space for them to do it even with re-signing Harrison Barnes. It would require them to move on from Willie Cauley-Stein, who wants that anyway as his agent has asked the Kings to let him go.

    They'd potentially have the room to make an aggressive offer to Horford, but they have a number of the top centers on their list, sources said. In addition to Horford, the Kings could chase Brook Lopez and Nikola Vucevic. Lopez played for coach Luke Walton with the Lakers.

    Philadelphia has its own free agents to deal with, namely Tobias Harris, Jimmy Butler and JJ Redick. Maybe the 76ers re-sign their guys and are never in the market. But if they don't re-sign all of them, they will have cap space and they could chase Horford. Philadelphia has a wide range of options and is perhaps the most intriguing team to watch this summer.

    It really depends on what Horford wants at the end of the day. My understanding was that he was looking for a title contender. He didn’t think Boston was one currently, that’s why he opted out. Then of course you start hearing the rumors and that he has a team willing to offer him a 4 year $100M deal. If that’s what he wants, then no he’s not becoming a Rocket. I would love to see him here but I doubt it happens.
