    I really hope Olshey can do the same with LMA/Wes/Rolo. If they all want the maximum allowed it won't be good for us in the long run. Lillard should get the max because he's coming off a rookie deal.

    The lower half of the west has to get better NOW because the difference between 5 and 9 will probably be 2 games... Hopefully we stay at the top half!

    So Minnesota basically got cap space? Brewer and Turiaf for Daniels? That is about a 6 million difference in salaries

    Plus Minny gets 2 2nd round picks. Not bad for a rebuilding team. Money and picks

    So, Houston gets Corey Brewer (Barton Sr.) and Turiaf. Why is this a big deal again?

    Wait so did they trade Daniels? What a horrible trade of they did. Who's going to keep them from getting swept? Not brewer!

    I would love to have Jeff Green on this team coming off the bench. But you have to assume he will opt out of his contract this summer. How much are we willing to pay for him to come off the bench. he gets 9.2 million now.

    It depends... do they allow him to bring his very extensive Barbie doll collection with him, or not!?

    They were talking about this on the radio yesterday. They were saying he'd be a good fit and it would likely happen soon
