    I don't see how we can get both. Didn't Howard eliminate us? Parson will have options, assuming his knees are fine. I think he will get around 20.

    Is it? I don't usually get that impression except when it comes to Meyers, but he isn't good so that makes sense.

    Lol what? Can't a man just compliment another man on his looks without someone else bringing race into it?

    I recall seeing a quote by Howard the other day along the lines of how he hasn't ruled anyone out and is still considering all his options. Want's to approach free agency with an open mind.

    Dudes. If we renounce Meyers and Hark, we could open up about 40 mil of space. Then still go over the cap match nay offer AC gets. That leaves enough room for Parsons AND Whiteside as long as Parsons takes about 2-3 mil less than max.

    So.

    Dame
    CJ
    Parsons
    Aminu
    Whiteside


    with AC, Noah, Ed, Plums off the bench.

    Holy crap

    So does anyone know who we are meeting with first? Lillards presence suggests parsons will be tomorrow because of his camp obligation but who knows, maybe he flies down to LA tonight it's not that far.

    That's what I'm thinking. If he can get a commitment from Parsons tonight, he can walk into the meeting with Whiteside tomorrow and say "why do you want Dallas? We already stole their best young player."

    They can meet with Parsons at 9:01 pm in LA. That gives Dame plenty of time to fly back.

    Dame + Neil + PA + Terry to LA to meet with Chandy tonight. Dame gets back tmrw
    CJ (seen recently in Virginia at Ed's camp) + Neil + PA + Terry to meet with Hassan in NYC after a redeye.

    Just speculation. Man this is fun :)

    That would make the most sense. Unless Dame goes with them and flies back tomorrow for the end of his camp.

    woj seems to think Whiteside will be deciding quickly tonight....between Miami and Dallas. Hopefully we still get the meeting. Long flight not to get to see him unless it was already canceled.

    Just gotta be weary that we don't have a Tyson Chandler to PHX situation. But man, this would be the best FA ever in POR history if Neil pulls it off

    Gah, i hope someone pukes at Parsons during the meeting.

    Parsons is a peasant, we don't need him.

    Tyson Chandler was at Aldridge's meeting with PHX before he even signed. So yes.

    Whoa. New wrinkle
