    UFAs still have cap holds, to prevent teams from just this sort of thing, signing Dwight, and then going well over to sign Manu.

    And Bonner, Diaw and Mills all have contracts next season. They can't just cut them.

    Non-guaranteed contract for Bonner. Thought the same with Diaw and Mills, but was wrong. They have ETOs.

    Bonner and Splitter frees up an additional 10 mill, though. Which would put them at 20+ mill.

    Removing Bonner entirely, they still have ~21-22 million in space. Max deal for Dwight starts at 20. Is Manu taking the mini-mle room exception of 2.6 million?

    Don't know. Don't really think it matters because Spurs don't want Dwight, I don't believe. I think Manu will get around 6 mill though.

    Great hire by the Hawks. I've been a Budenholzer fan for years.

    Bobcats owner Michael Jordan doesn't want to be mired in the rebuilding process forever. If the No. 4 pick could net him an established low-post scorer, he'd bite. Cousins would be more of a "Plan C" for the Mavs if both Chris Paul and Dwight Howard decide not to join the Mavs this summer, but Cousins would give them a young presence in the paint to build around.

    The Cavs won't be the only team calling the Kings once they get a new GM in place. Sources say that the Charlotte Bobcats and Dallas Mavericks will also have interest in Cousins if Sacramento's new management decides to cut ties with Cousins. ESPN.com

    I would say we have a better chance of keeping LMA than Minnesota has in keeping Love. (Based on Love's perceived personality and comments) They should seriously consider it. He may have a longer contract, but he is more apt to complain than LMA.

    I'm finally ready to try a Demarcus Cousins experiment! The rumor is that the Bobcats are offering the #4 pick. Could we beat that? I wouldn't want to give up Batum, LA or Lillard, so the answer (for me) is probably "no". Kind of depends how much Petrie likes Meyers Leonard.

    How about this, along with the #10 pick:
    http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=owmhkkp

    I think we would also have to sign some veteran with strong leadership cred as well. Tony Allen? Also Charles Oakley as an assistant coach...

    (Would the Cavs really offer the #1 pick? In this draft, that's not really that much better, if at all, from the #4. Cousins is probably worth it talent-wise, but it's not clear he actually helps a team win. Derrick Coleman II...)
