    Just realized our old Boston crew of Napier/Layman/Noah all are reunited in Minny. Just missing Patty C.

    Also, WTF Minny? Why y'all keep going after our scraps every year?

    We currently have the second highest payroll in the NBA behind only Cleveland (after GS lets Livingston go). Even CLE might get below as JR Smith's deal is only partially guaranteed. I'm guessing OKC will try to sneak under.

    Wonder how Jody feels about having the league's highest payroll one year into her tenure as owner.

    It's just one year, hopefully she can live with that. Next summer all these awful contracts from 2016 come to an end, and our salary cap will be normal again

    Well they will just make up some players nobody has ever heard of and make them into good NBA players anyway.

    After signing Juilius Randle, Bobby Portis, and Taj Gibson I was just thinking that New York really needs to sign another PF.

    WHAT IN THE FUCK?

    The best Westbrook deal OKC could possibly make right now would be to ask Miami to swap 2021 unprotected and 2023 lottery protected picks they currently own for 2020 unprotected and 2022 unprotected. The 2020 one would probably fall into late lottery or early non-lottery but if you send them Westbrook and ensure they have old Westbrook and Butler in 2021-22, the year of double draft, it could end up being quite good.

    You can take Dragic as an expiring and flip him for at least a second rounder, he’s still quite good. The other players to match salary would be tricky, and Miami are hard capped so cannot exactly take on any extra money. That deal would need to include a third and maybe evena fourth team. How many teams have remaining cap space though? I don’t think many. Or any if we are talking significant amounts.

    Hopefully we go after him at the Deadline, Morris is a good player

    he's not that good and he sure as hell isn't good enough to overlook the classless move he's apparently considering' If he reneges, on his agreement, I want him nowhere near the Blazers

    Rich Paul. What a surprise. How much longer until teams start blackballing his clients?

    He would be the best forward we had in 4 years, and he can hit the open 3 and is a good defender, i would definetly go after him if i'm Neil

    True, but compared to the magnificence of their past, this is a paradigm shift for that organization.

    Wow, have you not watched him play very much? He's okay, nothing to get worked up over though.

    6 reb/game from your PF (his best ever) does not get me excited.
