    Don't wait, get him now. If they really want to unload that contract, why would they want to pay $32 million this coming season for their lame duck superstar? Start with Turner and Aminu. Aminu is expiring and Turner makes less than half per season what Blake does and for two fewer seasons.

    I'm not sure how up to date the ESPN Trade Machine is, but it approved Turner + Aminu for Griffin and ends up saving DET more than $100 million in salary alone over the remainder of Blake's contract.

    All Neil has to do is say were trading for Blake. Paul Allen will think he means Steve Blake and he'll say, OK, sure, why not, 4th time's a charm!

    Did he, or is just more shameless self-speculation (i.e. "a source close to the team") by the bald faced moron?

    I refuse to click on the link.

    "I hear that he is asking for another meeting," an NBA front-office source told me on Thursday." It's from an Front Office guy

    Maybe it has to do with Paul donating to gun control lobbies....or maybe he wants Will Barton back

    This is what true leaders would do...go right to the top and communicate..maybe he wants to make sure Ed Davis is re-signed

    Didn't the team run off 13 wins in a row the last time Dame had a meeting with Paul Allen?

    As far as I'm concerned they should become BFFs and hang out together all the time.

    He's a columnist, not a beat writer. He just makes shit up and NEVER names his source (it's always an anonymous source, or a source close to the situation). The players won't give him the time of day and he only attends about 1 game a year so his nephew can get Steph Curry's autograph.

    He's a shit stirrer with zero connections.

    Because they can't coexist. We need a taller owner. Paul is a defensive liability.

    I'd be totally cool with that - especially if he sneaks a copy of the SAS playbook in his gym bag.
