    I wonder if OKC will go after Iggy.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    If they intend to stay under the luxury tax this year, as some speculated, then yeah. If they don't care about the luxury tax, then they can bring him back too. As I said in another post, I'd guess that the sticking point--if there is one--is number of years. But then, this deal with Livingston crosses the magical two-year threshold, so maybe not.

    Heat, Bucks, Sixers, and Wizards will improve on last year.

    That would make GSW/OKC games next season that much more epic.

    It wasn't posted as news, but as a response to Rovell's comment--just mocking Leonard further.

    NBA needs to have the option to decide one of the following for each season: Tradition system, or let in 8 teams from reach conference but seed them all 1-16.

    8th seed in the West next year will probably be better than the 5th seed in the East.

    So who are your eight? Are the Raptors still a playoff team if Lowry leaves? Are the Bulls still with Wade there? Do the Pistons get in this year?

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    They'll have the full MLE basically.

    I'm curious to see who this year's crop of ring-chasers will be.
