    I thought he meant Jordan Farmar.

    Would be an upgrade to the bench but at the cost of cramping next off season I pass.

    True, but that's not something he's proud of, since Jordan is pudgy and in his 50s.

    When I heard that he was on the block, a potential deal had the Blazers written all over it. But then I got to thinking, he has two years left at 5 mil a year does he not? That hinders their flexibility for next year. All of a sudden it didnt make any sense.

    Not unless Budinger has a good year. If he does, he opts out and becomes a FA to sign a new deal.

    Has anyone tried this trade on NBA2K15 to test it out?

    What does everyone realistically expect to get with cap space next offseason? I am not expecting anything.

    Well evidently Allen & Oshley are or they wouldn't be working like this.

    Get ready for another Hedo like disappointment. I fell for watching the cake bake once. Not going to do it again.

    So I assume you are for a deal for Budinger and feel he is the missing piece?

    If the team wins big, I feel most of the money will be spent on the current core. If not I assume everything this current regime has done or not done in the last two years was for the sole purpose of having flexibility for next summer. There are some key free agents potentially available.

    I think the biggest question will be with Mathews.How much money will he want and will he return?

    Maybe that's why he will get traded?

    . If anybody needed a veteran scorer on their team, it's the Wolves so I'd be very suspicious about taking on this guy. The Wolves are supposed to take our damaged players and pay them too much aren't they?

    I don't know about everyone else but i really like having Dorell on the team and don't want to trade him mostly because he is the person i'd trust most if Batum missed time. I know we don't use him a lot but a savy veteran that can shoot is never bad on the bench.

    Both Wright and Claver are way better defenders than Budinger is

    As much heart as he brings to the court, I would be careful with how much you pay him. To me is limited on how much he will improve. Meaning there is a limit and I would prob have issues paying him much more than MLE
