    Reports of Jeremy Lin coming to Philly circulating. NBA source says "lots of teams trying to unload big contracts on Sixers." We'll see

    Thats just insane esp since he has missed about 1/4th of every season he has played in so far.

    If you say so, I have known numerous people who have suffered from cancer, my grandfather has 2 kinds at the moment and my 3 year old half brother also has cancer. I cannot imagine it is easy to find solace in that situation. If I had to take a backhand around around the mouth every now and then to relieve some of their pain I would do it.

    I am not advocating domestic violence just hoping that something positive can be found in a difficult situation.

    @HCP Bradley plays terrific defense so the next time we sign someone who plays his caliber of defense I promise not to complain about the price.

    There goes what little chance we had of signing a quality contributor this offseason (as far as outright signing someone without S&T).

    I know you hate to miss an opportunity to engage in a little snarkiness, but you are aware that the July moratorium is underway in the NBA right now, no? With a few exceptions, teams can't sign anybody until July 10th. Livingston reportedly has agreed to terms with the Warriors, but a contract can't be signed until next week.

    espousing spousal abuser as therapy is how your statement reads. you have no place in deciding for others,especially the abused

    Marcus Thompson: I'm told Warriors could have gotten Rodney Stuckey. He would have taken MLE from Warriors. But they chose Livingston Twitter @ThompsonScribe - See more at: http://hoopshype.com/rumors.htm#sthash.srwgavwc.dpuf

    I would love to do a sign and trade for Hawes and use the MLE on Stuckey.

    I think that Hawes will eventually be a sign and trade. Working out the details with Philly may take some time, so I'd guess MM will have the opportunity to get in a few more jabs.

    edit: I changed my mind. Stuckey doesn't fit our team. He's a shit 3shooter and needs to jack up shots. averaging at least 10 shots in all but rookie season and never higher than .44%FG

    Maybe we have something Utah wants, 3 way double sign and trade? Hawes here, Hayward to Cleveland, something to utah.

    My hope of getting a decent player for the MLE has evaporated with some of these contracts being handed out.

    These contracts being handed out are ridiculous.
