    If we're not going to pick up a veteran PG, I'd roll with Brooks. Could be another killer PNR guy.

    I wonder if Jamal will freeze out Blake Griffin because his skin is light like Batum's? :devilwink:

    Eric Koreen: As for qualifying offers to Bayless and Weems: no word yet. My guess is they are in danger. JUST AN EDUCATED GUESS

    Celtics caught a Jet and a Bass.

    Now they are trying to get a Ray Gun

    Wouldn't take Bayless for a ball boy. Hard to pass to people with your head down.

    Big PER, great shooter from deep, good assists per 36 minutes guy. He would be a huge upgrade at SG

    Uh, they lost their SuperStar Franchise player to injury/early retirement...... just like the Blazers. Takes a while to recover from that.

    He would contend as our second best player

    He would probably start at PG as the roster is now

    Bayless as a shooting guard would be intriguing ... gotta wonder though if he still insists on calling himself a point guard?

    I actually liked his game quite a bit, but I never liked his attitude. The guy seemed like a cancer in the locker room.

    I guess that's kind of my point. It's how Bayless perceives himself and how that jives with how his teammates and teams see him that strikes me as the problem ... coincidentally the same problem I think is going to afflict Austin Rivers. If Bayless could accept the reality that he'd be a really good sixth-man combo guard who do his El Toro impersonation with some occasional kickouts to guys who are 7th-10th on the depth chart he could be really good, but as a starting 1 or a starting 2 there's just something that doesn't seem to click with he and his teammates.

    The Mavs can have Felton now. Nice off season.

    Orlando plans to pick up $6M option on final year of J.J. Redick's contract, league sources tell Y! Sports. Magic have until week's end.

    This confuses me because Iguodala is not "big", more like "medium"
