    This should be good.

    Oh and FYI, this is one of my favorite NBA days of the year even when the Blazers arent involved so I will be throwing out tweets like a rapper making it rain the strip club. My apologies in advance. :)

    I did some digging yesterday and watched some of their highlights. I want Afflalo over Chandler-- I think he can handle the ball well enough so he can play with CJ and not rely on Blake for play making.

    Get him ~25 mpg a night behind Nic and Wes, and we should be good to go. CJ can still keep his 15 mpg to improve, just reduce Blake's mins.

    Dame (34)/ CJ (8)/ Blake (6)
    Wes (32)/ Afflalo (8) / CJ (8)
    Nic (32) / Afflalo (16)
    LA (34)/ Leonard (14)
    Rolo (30)/ Kaman (18)

    Spot mins for Joel and anyone else left on the roster.

    I don't want Nic/Dame/LA reaching the high 30s until the playoffs.

    That's a hefty price tag for a player who could bolt.

    Factor in our UFA crop, I think Afflalo will be out of our price range.

    Denver is in full rebuild mode, no way Afflalo re-signs there. This is blatantly greedy. They better sweeten the pot (Jokic).

    Im pretty much there too. And I am ok with Chandler is Affalo doesnt happen. Maybe the right question is really which player is more willing AND able to accept the role as a go to player off the bench?

    For sure. I hope Neil does some digging before making the move so chemistry is not disrupted too much.

    My ideal fit oddly, would be Thad Young, but his price might be too high.

    Keep 'em coming. I don't want to follow twitter, but I'm all for following S2.

    Other tweets indicate the TWolves would go after him in a buyout. Thinking is between Flip and Sam Mitchell they would have some pull on Garnett

    Why do you keep bringing up Nurkic? He's the one untouchable on that roster, they value him higher than any player including Lawson. He's not going to be some random throw in.

    But
    But if Afflalo really really did well here, we could resign him and Matthews, and let Batum walk. Then Matthews or Afflalo could play SF.

    He said Jokic, the dude still in Europe.

    Not Nurkic
