What does this mean for the Spurs? Are they setup for the next six or seven years? With Dallas, are they now a true contender, or are they just another solid team out in the Western Conference? What do these signings mean for the Golden State Warriors? Is their dominance going to continue thanks to the other teams out west changing their teams as much as they are? 00:44:00The Basketball Truth by RLSNnoNBA Free Agency,Western Conference,Golden State Warriors,Dallas Mavericks,DeAndre JordanI run through the LaMarcus Aldridge and DeAndre Jordan deals and what they mean for the Golden State Warriors.http://www.blogtalkradio.com/rlsnbasketball/2015/07/02/nba-free-agency-day-2Basketballhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/rlsnbasketball/2015/07/02/nba-free-agency-day-2/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/rlsnbasketball/2015/07/02/nba-free-agency-day-2Thu, 02 Jul 2015 15:00:00 GMTNBA Free Agency: Day 2Day 2 of the NBA's free agency period is under way and from the time I went to sleep yesterday to this morning, there weren't a ton of big moves, but over the course of what many consider the "evening", many intriguing deals were as finalized as they could be. The two teams we saw in the NBA Finals made big moves, not from outside of their roster last season, but from within. Golden State is looking to keep its core together because, well, they won the NBA title. They did just that with Draymond Green. For Cleveland, Kevin Love, Tristan Thompson and Iman Shumpert will now all be back next season. Outside of the title contenders, many solid players reached new contracts with new teams. I'll go over those, and what's to come next in free agency. 00:44:00The Basketball Truth by RLSNnoNBA Free Agency,Day 2,NBA Finals,Golden State Warriors,Draymond GreenDay 2 of the NBA Free Agency period is here and I'll go through the latest deals agreed upon.http://www.blogtalkradio.com/rlsnbasketball/2015/07/01/nba-free-agency-day-1Basketballhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/rlsnbasketball/2015/07/01/nba-free-agency-day-1/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/rlsnbasketball/2015/07/01/nba-free-agency-day-1Wed, 01 Jul 2015 16:30:00 GMTNBA Free Agency: Day 1The NBA free agency period kicked off this morning at 12:01 a.m. and rumors have been swirling around many of the teams throughout the league. Each of these new deals that players are reportedly signing can't officially take place until July 9, but like every other year, agreements are made before then. Max contracts are being offered to players, but the public should know what exactly a "max contract" is worth for a player. Not every player can sign the same "max" deal, so paying the max amount for one given player can end up being a bargain, while for another, may not be the smartest contract a team can offer. In Miami, Pat Riley has no problem paying his better players, as Goran Dragic is set to make another $90 million over the next five seasons. Other max contracts such as Portland's Damian Lillard, San Antonio's Kawhi Leonard and Chicago's Jimmy Butler have also all been offered and are assumed to be accepted by July 9. Also, is Anthony Davis really worth $29 million per season? 00:44:00The Basketball Truth by RLSNnoNBA Free Agency,Day 1,Damian Lillard,Miami Heat,San Antonio SpursThe NBA free agency period kicked off this morning at 12:01 a.m. and rumors have been swirling around many of the teams throughout the league.

I don't think the choice is that clear-cut, and I'll run through the latest mock draft from Chad Ford.

MVP Stephen Curry wasn't himself, but didn't have the poorest of poor games. In Game 2, Cleveland answered back, in another overtime game that LeBron James had his fingerprints all over. Efficiency-wise, LeBron hasn't been the greatest, but his usage rate to this point has been beyond above the norm for even superstars in the league. Game 3 featured another LeBron-dominant game, and in the process, Curry continued his woes up until the fourth quarter. Matthew Dellavedova has played a huge role defensively, but it isn't just him, it's the Cavs' defense as a whole. Cleveland is up 2-1, but how much of a shock is it? And going forward, can LeBron really lead this group around him to a title? 00:45:00The Basketball Truth by RLSNnoGame 1,Game 2,Game 3,NBA Finals,LeBron JamesIn Game 1 of the NBA Finals, the Golden State Warriors held serve at home, winning an overtime-thriller.

Sure, James' story is different than most. He's a superstar returning to his hometown, trying to win the city a championship in which it hasn't done in 824 years. He's also a former MVP. How about this year's MVP? Stephen Curry is one of, if not the best shooter of all time. Will Curry get the best of "King James"? Or will the King reign supreme? What if those two players shouldn't be highlighted? That's my argument. This series will be won based on the supporting cast.

Was he? What job is next for him? Staying with Chicago, was Fred Hoiberg the right hire? Is it Finals or bust for the Bulls? Finally in New Orleans, Alvin Gentry got the gig. Could that be a distraction for Golden State in the Finals? Is Gentry the right fit for Anthony Davis and the Pelicans going forward?

I'll run through each series to this point, along with some of the headlines that have been created since the playoffs have began, such as the Rajon Rondo saga. In the Eastern Conference, everything seems to be holding true to form, but I thought Toronto would put up more of a fight.

With how loaded the Western Conference is, it seems like anything is possible outside of the Warriors advancing. In the Eastern Conference, the Atlanta Hawks may have the top spot, but the Cleveland Cavaliers have been the better team overall since the All Star break.

During the regular season and before his injury, Justin Anderson was one of the best players in the country and was making the Cavaliers look like a top-three team in the country, without question. After his injury, will he be healthy enough to help Virginia make a Final Four run? In the South Region, Duke locked up the top seed by... losing in the ACC semifinals? The Blue Devils built up quite the resume during the regular season, but it's odd looking at a No. 1 seed who couldn't win its own conference's regular season or postseason tournament. With Duke comes Gonzaga, the No. 2 seed, looking to, at the least, get over the hump and advance past the first weekend. 00:45:00The Basketball Truth by RLSNnoEast Region,NCAA Tournament,March Madness,Villanova,VirginiaIn the East Region, Villanova is the No. 1 seed while the Virginia Cavaliers enter as the No. 2 seed.

With that, the committee did the Wildcats a favor in my opinion by giving them the worst 2-seed in Kansas. The Jayhawks aren't bad, but when looking at the other 2-seeds, they don't appear as dangerous. I'll go through each game in the Midwest and talk about the realistic possibilities of Kentucky falling before the Final Four. In the West Region, Wisconsin got the 1-seed regardless of what was going to happen in the Big Ten championship game (according to the committe).

After the top-six teams, the level of play appears to drop off significantly.
