What may be doable with Festus is a poor man's D Jordan. Hakeem? When Hakeem was going NBA..I'd have happily traded ANYTHING GSW had to get him. I had NO doubt he'd be an All Star. Ezeli does not have the hands or the learning curve to ever resemble Hakeem.....few players do. Few players have anything close to LeBron's raw tools not to mention his instinctive grasp of the game. I did NOT ever say Barnes has such ability. I DO think he SHOULD be a real good STARTING SF here.
CENSORED... No comment.

Barnes + Speights for Brandan Wright. Get it done.
I was right about 3 point shooting. I expect to be right about Tacko Fall. Some coach will figure out how to use Tacko Fall. This movement towards undersized centers will sweep ng back. Back to the basket scorers will return to the NBA.

How about that same deal for Amir Johnson? Would even throw in Grevis Vasquez.

Oh, that's 10X better. Just no chance of happening, I would think.

From which team's perspective, the Warriors or the Raptors?

You mean why it has no chance of happening? Because Amir Johnson is way too valuable to give up for Barnes.

BW is shooting 70% TS on 18.5% USG. He's #3 in the league in PNR according to Synergy. I'd take Broken Wing over Flappy Bird any day of the week.

Maybe a Udoh/Speights flip, although I don't know why for the Bucks. I sure hope it's not for Ridnour.

This guy a respectable source?

Udoh would be cool. Id pass on Ridnour for now although it depends on what we'd give up. Is Ersan healthy?

Only way I see that happening is if the Warriors also take Mayo or Ersan, and by doing so I don't see an easy way for the Warriors to avoid the luxury tax this season.

They said they will go into the luxury tax if it helps them win.

I wouldn't get too excited. Its probably a Gary Neal for Brooks swap.

Kyler tweeted saying he's heard it's Gary Neal that GS would be interested in.

Brooks for Neal makes some sense as Brooks has enough salary to keep us from the Luxury Tax. I don't like taking on Neal's 2nd year though. Wonder if the Bucks would throw in a future 2nd rd pick.

What a mediocre move. So, they're going to effectively burn the Rush $4M TPE on Neal or waste $3.25M of the RJ TPE, which is currently at $9.8M and would be $6.6M afterward? They do the latter, and that says to me they plan to sit on mainly the same squad for next season.

Bucks/Warriors ideas... Interesting pieces over there. To me, the 3 desirable guys over there are Henson, Antetokounmpo, and Ilyasova. The first two have to be pretty close to untouchable, and Ilyasova makes a bunch of money. I don't have much of any interest in Udoh or Sanders (sorry to those who seem to love them), Ridnour is meh, and we should stay away from Neal. I wonder what the talks center around, if there actually are talks going on.....
If I don't have anything funny to say, can I still have a signature?

If this actually happens... and... If this is using the Rush TPE and keeping us out of the luxury tax i don't have an issue with it. I think it makes us marginally better this year. Not all moves are going to be big moves. I think its good that the FO is trying to improve the team.

Though... i'd prefer a move where we get some draft picks back, but that's probably not realistic.
