    Also, if I didn’t know any better, I would think we are showcasing CJ. Dame and Nurk get rested so CJ can ball out. And lucky us, he’s had arguably his two most efficient games without one of them.

    I don’t actually believe my theory, since I don’t trust that Kyler didn’t just make it up.

    CJ has been ridiculously efficient all month tho. His shooting splits this month are back to where they've been the last few years and he's clearly climbed out of his mini shooting slump. It hasn't just been a few games. 21-4-3 on 47% FG, 41% from 3 is really good for our third guy.

    Sidenote: Olshey tried to trade up for Porzingis. Not sure we have what it takes to get him.

    CJ, Zach and Chief for KP, Hardaway, and Lee? Would screw us for this season (unless KP comes back healthy and effective), and put us way into the tax next year, but maybe...?

    Sounds like Porzingis to Dallas for Smith

    There's got to be more to it than just Smith, right?

    I'd hope they get a lot more than that. KP's value should be significantly higher. If that's the best piece they get, can we yell at Olshey for not making a better offer?

    Jordan, Wes and Smith for Lee, Hardaway and Porzingis. New York looking for cap space this summer. This is the rumor on ESPN LA

    Is Dallas trying to corner the market on Dirk clones?

    Sorry to say but I believe that Wes Matthews would sign a deal with the Thunder once he gets bought out.

    There are rumors that KP might not ever be the same player again.
