    They are probably selling him on the wonders of playing with Felton

    Dunno if I've posted this anywhere yet, but I just want to go on record saying I'm not sold that Whiteside is what we need. I'm not convinced he's a team player.

    Things can change in an instant. Just look at the Deandre jordan fiasco from last year. As long as we get our meeting, which it surely looks like we will, sources can easily go from what woj put to "Portland looks to be in the lead for Whiteside" or something like that.

    I would like to remind people that woj kept saying we were in the mix for Aldridge up until the last day. Clearly that wasn't true.

    Maybe it's just because we haven't had a good past with free agents but why do i feel like he will monroe us? last year it was bucks or portland for monroe and he went to the bucks which honestly made sense then because we looked like a 25 win team. I just don't understand why Dallas is a top free agents desired place to go, or one of them at least. Dirk is old. Deron is past his prime. Wes isn't the same. What's the selling point there? WAY better situation in Portland and it's obvious to me who he should choose. Even if Dallas was able to get Conley, I don't think that team is still attractive. On top of that, your boy Parsons is meeting with Portland too so come on, this isn't that tough of a decision between the two. If he chooses Dallas, fuck that dude forever. If he was smart, he would come here

    I must be a real opti
    I don't think that is really what Woj is saying; that's the problem with these short tweets. He says Whiteside's focus today is on Miami and Dallas. He is meeting Miami today and Dallas just at the end of today. His focus tomorrow will be on the Blazers, then he has all day to make his July 1 decision.

    Is it bad that a big part of me says that whenever Dallas signs a player, or goes after him, he ends up not making a difference?

    Cubans solution to every problem seems to be just throwing more $$ at it.

    He's going to Dallas guys. I told you Whiteside or Horford is not coming here. What pisses me off is losing Whiteside to freaking Dallas. They have nobody. What a joke.
