The Free Agency Period is in full swing and Teams are on the move and quickly. The Shocker of Shockers even though it is early is the Minnesota Timberwolves putting an Offer Sheet out on Rip City Blazers SF and Frenchman Nicolas Batum NBA.com is reporting. The Deal is reported to be worth 4 years $50 Million and with Batum being a Restricted Free Agent the Blazers have 3 days to match.

Now the T'Wolves made that offer at the Small Forward and do not give Offers to SF's Anthony Randolph or Michael Beasley. Now they are free to walk with whoever they choose and look for Teams to reach out to B-Easy People as he is still a talented player.

The West Side Story Report aka the Chicago Bulls get Bad News as the Rockets offer Bulls Restricted Free Agent Center and Turkish Omer Asik NBA.com is reporting. The Deal is said to be worth in the neighborhood of 3 years #25 Million Plus and the Bulls have limited Cap Space to take on that Contract and they may have to as they have 3 days to match Rockets offer for Asik. Bulls had a Qualifying Offer of just under $2.4 Million and the Rockets go to $8 Million per.

If the Bulls match the Offer they have Team Options for Hot Sauce and Watson for a Combined $8.5 Million so they may let Korver walk as they will let Watson go I am hearing.

The Bulls and Blazers are in a tough Spot and Teams can't pay everyone as Batum is a really nice piece with Asik being the Big that is Insurance for Jo Knows if the Bulls put him in a Trade.
