    The Wizards have no cap room anyway and they have Beal at SG, Porter is perfect for them so they'll match.

    I guess now the Sixers regret signing JJ, they could have gotten KCP. Atlanta can probably max KCP.

    Didnt he go to Georgia? Lets hope they max him so BKN doesnt get him. Then we can dump Crabbe on BKN

    Good God if that's true. I don't care if Paul Allen ran over his dog, how do you decide on the OKC offer over that? The way to get back at a team you don't like is by coming out on top in a trade with them, not by losing your job for being a dumbass.

    Imagine if PG bolted. KP would've made out even better. Dumbass...

    I wonder if maybe he knew that George would consider re-signing here, so he didn't want to make us a contender.

    That's not good for him. He will get a worse deal.

    Tyreke to Memphis for 3.3mil... he would've been a good pickup but I guess we are looking to pay more for a worse player.

    He's a better player than Crabbe and is basically on the same level of ET... at 13+ mil cheaper

    But those players are still on our team.... so we're still going to pay them all that money while we give their minutes to Tyreke Evans?

    Eater that or Evens would have taken time away from our youth from developing.

    If Portland doesn't use it, that seems like a sign that Portland doesn't want to go deep into the luxury tax and doesn't want to make their task clearing out salary room for Nurkic even harder.

    Though a one-year mini-MLE wouldn't complicate things. On the other hand, probably not that many players are interested in a one-year mini-MLE.
