    Memphis blowing it up. Suprised Clips didn't have to give up more.

    Clips were going to cut Lance if they couldn't trade him.

    Isn't Blake out until the playoffs at least? I wouldn't have traded my pick at this point.

    Channing Frye to Cleveland actually is a really underrated move for them. Great locker room guy and will open up the floor for their second unit.

    Unfortunately, me too. To get anything out of the Lance mistake is a plus. Green can still play.

    Jeff Green is one of those players who looks like he's helping but doesn't really. Too small to be a 4, not skilled enough to be a 3. The Memphis GM is that guy who invented PER, right? So presumably they dumped Green because of analytics.

    Yep, Killer trade for the Clips. Could work for both teams, but the Grizz will look completely different with Lance on the floor if it does. To me it seems like he kind of thrives playing out of control. When he's allowed to make those stupid passes and commit turnovers is when he's at his best. When he's playing like that he's out there going for steals making crazy no look passes and making his name heard on every possession. Definitely a guy who is prone to get lost in the system.

    One post player they never use, one ball dominant guard and a bunch of C+ to A shooters?

    Capela is who they prefer as a starting center.

    It's funny how teams expect to get a lot of assets for players who expire or can opt out in a few months time, Atl got nothing for Horford and HOU nothing for Howard and Miami nothing for Whiteside. Nice to see a little reality set in, that common sense will likely get thrown out this summer with a lot of dumb overprices contracts
