Funny, seems as though everyone else got the gist of the post. Heaven forbid ANY thread NOT be hijacked by a stupid, personal vendetta.
Read the title of the thread. He's the prize free agent at that position so I threw him out there, but if you can't understand the general idea...
Again, you're focusing on the tree, please step back and discuss the forest with the rest of us. This is not a thread about James Harden, please stop...
Worth remembering that we're talking next offseason, for the 2013 season, and beyond. Which means that Leonard will have more than a year to get...
Some intriguing names on that list... If you figure Lillard, LMA and Batum are our #1, 2, and 3 scorers (not necessarily in that order, just how they...
While you're not wrong - OKC isn't just going to let a division rival have one of their best players for nothing, you're also ignoring the fact that...
For those who missed it, Storyteller had a great article on blazersedge. I'm using his spreadsheets in this post... Assuming we match for Nic, it...
Proably worth pointing out that doing a S&T where we bring back significantly less in salary than we would have going out would result in a very...
Might be time to play hardball... He's about the only asset not named "unprotected first round pick", "Ricky Rubio" or "Kevin Love" that would worth...

Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year S&T time... A resigned Batum and Shawne Williams for Derrick Williams and Minny's 2013 first round pick...
Maybe not who (specifically) but what?... If we're faced with getting nothing or getting something for Batum, you take what you can get... The most...
Seems pretty simple to me... Cap Space or no cap space, because we have his full bird rights, we can sign him for more money and an extra year that...
I think the best course of action for how to handle the Batum's situation - for all parties involved - is to work out a S&T. He's clearly not...
Re: Now what? i.e. Free Agency Agreed on resigning Batum. I think that, or at worst a S&T with him, is a given.
Re: Now what? i.e. Free Agency Not in terms of comparrison, no. They're very different players.
Re: Now what? i.e. Free Agency I'd rather have Javale McGee
Re: Now what? i.e. Free Agency They're nowhere near the same player. Like, not even close.
Re: Now what? i.e. Free Agency I think you've got to identify THE one young available player (via trade or FA) that you want as another *piece* and...
