    ok then...makes a little more sense...but...right now they are scheduled to be 32M under the tax line, with only Plumlee and Craig to re-sign. But maybe they didn't have much interest in re-signing the players they traded

    now that the details are complete, it may be that Denver actually got better. Beasley and Hernangomez are fairly meh. And Vernderbilt is a scrub. With Napier and Vonleh, Denver replaces what they sent out but they needed another big with Plumlee out till maybe March. Vonleh is a journeyman but he is averaging 12 & 12 per36 and Napier can run point

    I like what Denver did. All indications were that they did not feel they could resign Beasley, so they went out a got something without taking on any bad contracts... That's a good concept!

    Neil will use the 4 game win streak as his excuse for inactivity... it’s a scary thought after reality set in tonight that if Dame doesn’t score 50 this team is in trouble

    Daryl Morey will make a phone call to Neil asking about Whiteside and getting some thoughts about a 3rd team.

    I don’t think the Rockets have the salary to make a trade for Whiteside.

    Need to find a replacement for Simons right now he’s not playable. CJ isn’t really a point guard either but he’s the only internal option.But Simons can’t be in the rotation any more.

    If we were building a contender this season I'd be 100% onboard with using Ant to upgrade the bench before the deadline. However, since we are highly unlikely to be winning anything this year, I only think you move him if you can get value, which I doubt at this moment.
