    Golden State going after another former Blazer pg. He would fit in with their offensive philosophy with the 3-ball.

    Depending on what they took back, that may end the Jordan Hill discussion. Lakers trying to get under the Lux threshold and have additional flexibility.

    This deal only gets them 2M closer, but they were 7-9M over to begin.

    Warriors gave up nothing and got nothing back. Good deal!

    ESPN has learned Cavs are in talks w/Sacramento on deal to swap Jarrett Jack for Jason Thompson. BUT Cavs looking for third team to route JT

    Hmmmm....Jason Thompson would be quite helpful here. Not sure we have the pieces to get him.

    As talks currently stand, I'm told Cavs NOT inclined to send Jarrett Jack to Sacramento UNLESS they find third team to take Jason Thompson

    Why would we want Thompson? What skill does he have that we want?

    I think a big move by Portland happens in the morning. Something exciting....,key pieces will include Batum and Leonard.

    An All Star and bench player comes our way

    Trade Batum! Matador defense is NOT good defense! So far he's 0/5 from the field when we needed a player to step up! Big time rebounder too....yikes!
