    Speaking of Calipari. He's got about 5 or 6 future 1st rounders on this years team including about 3 players that will be in the lotto this year and he's not even got them in the top 25. Helluva coaching job.

    They just took a loss to Alabama too... 12-6 now, with their best win coming against Maryland.

    No, the Lakers needed that one and they were losing big before he went off.

    Although nothing is "official," there are multiple reports out there that the Grizzlies will sign Delonte West, Sasha Vujacic, and Bill Walker.

    http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2013/1/...is-grizzlies-rumors-bill-walker-sasha-vujacic

    They're also reportedly signing D-Leaguer Chris Johnson, a rookie out of Dayton. I'm a huge college fan, and I'm not sure I even knew who that was. Someone told me today that the Grizz signed Chris Johnson, and I spent an awkward few minutes telling them the Chris Johnson playing for Minnesota, and then upon being corrected, telling them about Dayton's Chris Wright.

    Hopefully these signings go through. It makes the Cleveland trade look better if you phrase it, "Ellington, Speights, and Selby plus a pick for West, Vujacic, and Walker plus cap relief."

    If we cut anyone there on our cap for this year as well as the person we sign (if the cut players clear waivers), were already over the lux tax so i'm assuming its all about saving money.

    I don't want the Lakers to have a better pick than us! Last time Kupchack had a high pick he got Bynum

    WTF happened to Andres Biedrins? The guy was a monster rebounder at such a young age and was borderline AS that one year. Overdoes on hair gel?

    Confidence is shot after Baron and Stephen Jackson left, Nellie went to town with the mind games on him. Rumors that hes an alcoholic as well.

    Still rebound at an absurd rate, but where he used to be automatic catching and finishing around the rim, now he plays hot potato with the ball because hes afraid of the FT line. Hes been alright this year in limited minutes rebounding and blocking shots, but hes still a far cry from the ball of energy he once was.
