    How are they going to pay Steph, Klay, Draymond, and Barnes. There's even some who think they will offer Durant a max this offseason. I hope they do because it would blow up in there face and I would love to have Barnes. However honestly it's not that big of a deal as I feel like Crabbe can give you a lot of what Barnes would give you.

    Speaking of files, this board reminds me of some offices I've had to organize in my first week on the job!

    Everything is leading me back to Cousins. I don't want a Ryan Anderson or an aging Horford.

    I'm pretty sure the Heat will consider a Plumlee for Whiteside trade, i don't see them giving him the max.

    He's not at all smart on defense - he relies entirely on his length, and people like him because he gives the appearance of effort which is all that matters to a lot of people. But he's often lost and causing horrible switches - Dame onto PP for instance!

    How many times does it need to be said, the Blazers "strategically" (I say this cause I think it's stupid) switch on all side pick and rolls. Aminu is told to do it. Harkless is told to do it. Crabbe is told to do it. Davis is told to do it. Leonard is told to do it. etc. etc.

    The crazy switches like Dirk on Lillard are not the players fault. Aminu has his issues but this is a stupid criticism.

    If that's indeed true then it's another bullet point for why Stotts sucks.
    Either way, both Aminu and Stotts are weak links.
