    Thought I read that monroe holds his opponent to a less than 15 per while performing at a 19-20 per level while playing center.

    And with Leonard and plumlee, we could play matchups very very well with all four

    You did. His PER is +4 at Center and -1.4 at Forward.

    If he signs a 4 year max, that maybe a bargain actually with the new cap

    That means Portland wouldn't have his Bird Rights after such a short contract. That is a concern.

    Jordan only has to arrive at Staples for his Lakers game. Nice deal for him.

    I think next summer will be an anomaly regardless. With cap increasing so drastically, we could afford to reup on him.

    Except if it's a deal that changes with the new cap...

    Early Bird rights allow the team to re-sign for 175% of previous salary so I guess it wouldn't be too big of an issue in Monroe's case.

    Yeah, the one issue might be that you can only offer a 4-year deal as an Early Bird Veteran, though at the home-team rate of 7.5% raises (instead of 4.5%). So you theoretically lose the "we can give more guaranteed years" argument.

    Parsons visited DJ? I'm so confused on how this free agency thing works.

    Teams can't talk to other teams free agents. Everything else seems to be fair game. Player can talk to players, agents can talk to anyone. ( I think)

    I'm not sure Aldridge always knew. There have been things with his family that often swayed hit longer term thoughts which is only natural.

    I think there will be a convo he has, if he hasn't already, with his mom. I really think he looks up to her and her opinion.
