    Id take Turner at SF for 15 min off the bench, but not starting. He's not a good defender and he's a bad shooter. Hendo can do both and handle the ball a little.

    What you mean is: you wish Memphis media was as obsessed with making up rumors as Portland media is.

    LBJ opt out. Love says he wants to come back to Cleveland. How are the Cavs able to keep love and LBJ since they don't have bird on LBJ?

    Lebron is probably forcing the cavs to get rid of love.

    Could they resign LBJ max first, then max love? Since Love opt out, does the cap hold stop? I'm not certain

    On Nate Duncan's Dunc'd on Podcast, they mentioned the possibility of PDX going after Crowder and Shumpert, with Iman at a pricetag of 7-9M and Crowder at 6-7M. If LA leaves and we need to rebuild, a lineup of:

    Lillard/Shumpert/Crowder/Tobias Harris/Plumlee with CJ/Henderson/Leonard/Vonleh off the bench is a youthful team that can grow together for a year or two, yet is bad enough to miss playoffs and retain our pick. That SL is entirely built around 22-25 year olds and would all be on bargain contracts for the next year or two.

    Crowder at $6-7M? Hell no. Play Harris at the 3 and start Meyers with Vonleh as backup
    -Lillard/Shump/Harris/Leonard/Plumlee
    --CJ/Henderson/Vonleh/Kaman

    Kaman can mentor Vonleh and Plumlee like he did Meyers

    That has to be one of the most puke propelling ideas I've seen to date.

    The article implies that he would have interest if it weren't for Pau, which means he'll have interest elsewhere

    That would seem to indicate to me that Henderson isn't necessarily in our plans. Hemight be option D for starting sg.

    I think it's likely CJ is backup PG/SG and Henderson is backup SG/SF
