    Maybe Isiah Thomas is secretly running things again.

    I still don't quite understand this move. I guess I'm a little slow.

    Animated fat Ray Felton somehow makes all of last year worth it.

    Translation - he's the anti-Felton, and one who won't complain when he's stuck on the end of the bench, or even in street clothes.

    You say no kidding ... I mean "no kidding." That made me laugh for a solid 4 minutes after the video ended. My wife thinks I'm insane ... and then she watched it.

    My source says Olshey told NY he would accept the two Greeks, Jefferies and a bag of chips for Felton and Thomas, but Felton ate the chips, so NY had to kick in a 2nd round pick instead

    Per Neil Olshey, the Blazers have a $3.5 million trade exception from the NY deal. Meaning that they are still technically over the cap.

    deal keeps getting better.

    Somehow these pics need to go together. I think we blew our big chance at having the odd couple:

    OTOH I think Barton would have nightmares of Felton with a fork in his hand :biglaugh:

    I didn;t get this. Olshey said like 2-3 times we were under the cap. Under the cap = no TPE

    I think we "could" have space, but have technically not used any yet, and so might be more valuable to save the exceptions than renounce them. Used bird rights to get batum and trade felton, and sign hickson, and mle to sign freeland and claver. Depending on how close to the cap that ends up getting you, more valuable to land that TPE and keep the BAE than renounce them.
