    Great move for Toronto, well depending on the protection of that pick. Lowry and Jonas are probably their two best players now so thats a big improvement this offseason.

    I'm not sure what to think about Houston, I bet Knicks match any Lin offer now that Nash is elsewhere. I'd possibly be interested in Kevin Martin if Houston wants to tank.

    Ya, I realize there are others out there, and Lowry didn't wanna play for them, but he was cheap

    Shit, is that all he cost? Why the hell didn't we get him? He was the Rockets' best player for the first third of the season - when they were playing well.

    I like Augustin as a backup, spark off the bench.

    He'd be solid, but it sounds like, and hopefully it will be true, that Portland wants to play Lillard as much as possible, so another PG would come in here playing maybe 20 minutes a night. Would Augustin do that?

    I think brooks heads back to houston of lin gets matched. Id like to see bayless in houston. If he got free roam he would be a fantasy bball stud and put up ridiculous numbers for them

    I'm told New Orleans Hornets will acquire Ryan Anderson via sign-and-trade deal with Orlando. Deal is on verge of completion today

    Unless they play Davis at SF, which they wont, I think they'll play Anderson at the center spot. A stretch-center?

    If NO retains Gordon, and we retain Batum, but lose out on Hibbert, are they better than us?

    Nets "making progress" on finding a third team to take Kris Humphries in a scenario that would send Dwight Howard to Brooklyn, source says.>>>>>

    The "third team" to be taking on Humphries is believed to be Cleveland.
