    They saved ~3.5 million in the trade. I think they still need to shave 2.5-3 to get under

    That would be a great trade! Gasol only counts $6.7 million against the cap next year if waived this summer.

    The future is bright in Big D, they are setting themselves up for a Big 3 if Porzingis comes back 100%

    How exciting for their fans.

    Yeah. They need a chance at a future. Because we all know as long as Jerry Jones is running the Cowboys they ain't winning shit.

    Then Blake does what he does near every season:

    Get injured in the playoffs. :smiley-ko:

    Then, as he watches from the sidelines, we watch our playoffs hopes go down the drain. :dunno:

    Then there's this:

    Blake Griffin signed a 5 year / $171,174,820 contract with the Los Angeles Clippers, including $171,174,820 guaranteed, and an annual average salary of $34,234,964. In 2018-19, Griffin will earn a base salary of $31,873,932, while carrying a cap hit of $32,088,932 and a dead cap value of $141,661,920.

    And bro.... FUCK THAT...

    Also, not only is he injury prone and MAD expensive, he's a fucking DICK.

    Now, have a look at this hot white lady showing Blake's dickliness:

    Someone in FA, I could see Cousins there(ok so it’s a weak Big 3). Id love to see an Irving/Doncic/Porzingis team though.

    Now if this was the Blazers Justin Jackson would have never gotten traded. He would be pretty much untouchable.

    Whacking it to a picture of CJ after he thought for a second to consider trading him and then felt bad.

    To be fair I think this week is really stressful to a lot of NBA players. I think a lot of them are just posting to try to release there own tension a bit.

    If Nurk is traded that’s a good thing, it means he’s part of an AD package.
