    I would rather keep our free agents. Not worth it to renounce all our guys to sign Cole.

    Woj completely ignoring Portland (didn't even mention them as being out) is really weird. So either Portland was never in it or Woj is working for Olshey lol

    If we sign Parsons I dont see Harkless back anyways so he will likely be renounced.. To get Cole you'd only have to renounce Meyers. (Assuming we are gonna renounce kaman, roberts and hendo anyways). We could keep Crabbe.

    Well, if he actually is going to make a decision tonight and not tomorrow, we're basically fucked.

    I'm trying to look at Dallas/Portland as neutral as I can and I still haven't come up with one reason outside of $ as to why Dallas is the better option.

    And there you go. Hassan basically spelled it out for you. He is a businessman first.

    It's good for like not quite 2 million in saved money. It's just not that much.

    If Mavs dont sign him asap like Woj seems to insist, our chances to at least talk to him increase imo.

    David Aldridge just said on NBA TV that as far as he knows we still have a meeting with Whiteside. Of course, things can change.

    He also just said we will probably throw the max at Parsons....

    David Aldridge just got fooled by a fake Stein account saying Dallas has signed Whiteside, lol.

    Are you Hassan Whiteside? Blink once for "yes" and twice for "no". I won't tell anyone.

    On second thought, the last time we played this once or twice game it didn't end well for this franchise.

    I'm not doubting you, just curious about your sources. I wish I had sources besides this forum!

    Weather (if you like the heat), nightlife, not as lilly white, not as many hippies/hipsters.

    These things are rarely just about basketball.
