    unless he suffered some sort of major injury, this was probably done at his request..

    yup we’re dying for an energy guy who crashes the glass. It seems he’s expanded his game as well, as he was attempting over 2 threes a game in China.

    I totally agree. Said it in another thread. Cheap, energetic vet that used to spank our asses. Can Melo be moved to 3, for Farrid at the 4? Does it matter? Just IMHO, but this is MILES better than some Love deal, and taking on his contract.

    I think with the hood injury they can get an injured player exception.

    Yeah, they swapped Gasol with Melo. Hoard doesn’t count.

    They have 14 if they get an exception for Hood. Hoard is a two way. Technically they could probably get one for Collins if they say it's season ending also. Not sure we will see Zach again this year either?

    I am pretty sure they are at 14 now since they released Gasol. So technically they could sign two players if they were to receive a exception for hood.

    We are actually at 14 now including Hood. We would be at 13 if an exception for Hood is granted.

    Yeah, you guys are right. We could sign him right now. I have no clue on the tax implications though....

    Please no. There's a reason he was in China. Don't let us be the last chance hotel for unwanted NBA vets.

    Nah Brown isn't two way. He's on a minimum. So he takes a spot.

    I'm pretty sure Brown is indeed on a two way contract.
