    As the NBA free agency period gets underway, it appears Kyle Korver is about to come to full-circle back to the team that drafted him.

    Multiple sources told SNY.tv early Monday morning that a deal that would land the free agent, sharp-shooting swingman with the Nets is, ‘all but done.’

    As expected, the deal will be completed for the team’s mini mid-level exception. The mini-MLE is a three-year deal totaling approximately $10 million.

    The nets are surrounding their team with legit 3 point shooters. They are gonna be scary.

    Yeah, I wanted the Rockets to chase Korver. Nice get for the Nets.

    nets front office is logic-challenged to say the least

    That's a really good fit for him but I can't believe he's settling for that kind of money.

    Hope that means the guys Morey wants if Dwight comes here will take peanuts.

    That's a hell of a basketball team if true. Anything short of the ECF is a disaster season.

    KG is still probably the GOAT locker room guy though.

    That is a great move. Korver is perfect with Reggie Evans and KG illegal screens.

    They will give the Heat a run for their money if they are all healthy this year.

    Really? He's gotten into fights with teammates and his "no-laughing" policy seems to slowly but surely drive teammates insane. I'm not even sure you're allowed to smile until the offseason when you play with KG.

    Very solid pick-up for the Nets.

    Korver is basically automatic from long range. The type of player teams tend to forget about on loaded teams like the Nets.

    I thought he was going to go to the Heat and camp on the perimeter with Ray Allen, Shane Battier, and Mike Miller.

    Surprised he didn't shop around a bit longer, but I guess those relationships with Deron Williams et. al were strong.

    I don't see it. This feels like last years Lakers team. One or more of the old guys will break down. I don't see them being better than Chicago, Indi, NY or Miami.
