    That Whiteside deal probably takes Miami out of contention for Durant (didn't think he was going there anyway, just sayin)

    Sure does. Unless Miami trades dragic/Mctrash but thats stupid to me

    And lin is a 3/yr 36mil

    I'm not mad at the Lin deal at all. We had to get younger and Lin is a good fit. Him and Brook on the pick and roll could be a good combo. I would prefer him off the bench so hopefully the nets still try to sign rondo.

    Also there's no need for jack to be salty. ? like 34 he shouldn't be mad the rebuilding ass nets let him go. He got some gas left he should try to sign with a contender and let Lin live
    I'd agree with this except that I wanted Whitehead to be the backup PG behind a true starter. I was hoping for Rondo or Conley, or even a Clarkson.


    I think the plan is for Whitehead to be the PG of the future so they'll bring him along. I got faith in this coach he seems to know his basketball.

    Conley still a long shot, hopefully we still in the running for Crabbe.

    Crabbe would be a nice fit at a position of need.

    It's crazy how the Lakers and Mavs fell in terms of attracting free agents


    Dirk needs to retire he is wasting his time...........

    while kobe got payed, and the lakers were able to somewhat be in a rebuilding phase
    and get some decent young pieces in, russel, randle, clarkson and now ingram.....



    My ? cuban been building a mediocre cast to surround dirk the last couple of years
    As a last resort because they keep on trying to bank on top free agents who spurned them......

    plus dirk took less money so cuban can sign chandler parsons to be injured the last 2 years
    and miss the playoffs, and now possibly end up on another team......

    dirk went from mayo, to ellis to parsons......smfh.......

    Meanwhile while you countin all this chicken your squad has no one lls Yall keepin that money tho! :/

    Im not sayin they shoulda paid Gordon, but you gotta pay to play. A young player on a 4 year deal in this climate is NOTHING: Parsons, Barnes, Crabbe, Bazemore, yall better pony up

    I would say ____ aint walkin thru that door but yall franchise lineage confuses me. David Wesley? PJ Brown? Mad confusing

    I really wanted E'twaun Moore to sign back with the Bulls, that's looking less likely when teams start throwing all that dough at him

    Not gonna lie. Very happy the Pels have a 10 mil cap. They can put together a nice crop of players with cap.

    Crabbe
    Augustin
    M. Williams
    J. Dudley
    J. Jack
    Terrence in houston.
    Move Evans to the two.
    Ajinca can play the 3rd string four.

    12mil a year, not bad. Can't wait to see Isaiah play backup and won't be surprised if he performs well and take Lin's spot. I knew Kenny would target Lin since he's the reason for linsanity

    They not winning ? . The Pels dont have the money and no big time Free Agents are coming to check them out. Right now they are trying to keep the boat afloat. Dont get in another big contract until you get the right player.

    They didnt bite on Lin and 12 million a year. Happy about that.

    I was going to put Ish Smith on the list but he about to sign to Detroit.

    Can't picture him leaving and making adjustments for the first time this late in his career

    But I mean if he was to leave, Im trying to think of a place that has vets but isn't the spurs or cavs he can would go
