It seems as though portland will do everything in their power to get him, and do we really wanna match whatever ridiculous contract they will throw at him?

Trading him for another young center that fits next to kevin or a promising young wing player + a pick would help us in the long run imo.

I think we should keep him. I still think a healthy frontcourt of Pek/Love/AK47 is pretty hard to stop.

Portland is going to have something in the neighborhood of $12M in cap space to throw at Pek, which is about what he is going to command anyway. I think Minny matches any offer unless it is a max deal.

1. Stupid fat fingers made me And1 your post.

2. I'm not as confident in the front office's ability/desire to match that high.

Sounds like smart fat fingers to me.

How high do you think they will match? I'm thinking something in the neighborhood of 4/50 would be about as high as they would like to go but they might go a bit higher if pushed. I guess I should have said "close to a max".

The Rockets tie the 3pt record and Dalembert has 35 points. Weird day.

who the hell was guarding him? I expected to see 17 for 20 from the line in that, but he only went 1 for 1.

I hope he has a few more of those coming so the attention isn't all on pekovic in free agency.

They probably have no idea where the 'Lakers' name came from either.

I just realized, with Ed Davis being acquired by Memphis. They could field an all-lefty starting five :lol:

Z. Randolph
E. Davis
T. Prince
T. Wroten
M. Conley

I wonder if someone will complain about that too :lol:

Was just thinking about how Austin Rivers has made the Cassell trade look a little better for us...
