    Bottom line, he's white and he has a beard. Portland has to sign him.

    Found a picture of him this off season where he is preparing for his all but certain signing in Portland. You cannot see it in this picture, but his socks are made from the PDX carpet.

    No, I just want to see how many games into the season before Mike Rice realizes what he's been saying.

    If JR Smith did indeed sign with the Lakers then I think that makes it much more likely that CLE would match an offer sheet on Delly. Unless it was obscene of course.

    Wow, it sounds like we lost interest for some reason. I can't imagine 1.2mill was a barrier.

    I doubt he signs with us for that amount. He maybe signing for a discount for the ring.

    I was thinking Blazers might throw a 2-3mill/year for 2-3 years at him. It would have got his attention. He's taking a big risk, but is also probably confident in his abilities.

    Maybe the Cavs dealt Haywood and the picks to us instead of the other teams with cap space in exchange for us not offering Delly a contract.

    Good point. But, if true, and I will Delly and found out, I would be very mad.

    Him signing at $1.2 million means we had no interest in signing him.

    So does that mean we'll actually have to play Phil Phucking Pressy next year?

    That's against the rules/CBA.

    What's to stop Cleveland's GM from saying, "We'll trade you these two scrubs for a couple 2nd round picks. Superficially, it might sound like we're doing it as a favor so you don't extend Delly a contract, but obviously that's not allowed in the new CBA." With an over-the-air wink wink, of course.
