guaranteed whatever move he does make will involve bringing more shooters in to surround Drummond.

Well Monroe signed the 1yr tender (auto no trade clause), so Stan cant trade him without Greg's consent on what team he wants to go to, or he could just block the trade all together if he wants to just decide his own future. So with that said, Stan doesn't have many options as far as controlling what he can get back or from what team, That's in Monroe's hands.

yeah, i was aware of that. some of those teams Monroe might be interested in going to with the option to re-sign long term, and giving them his bird rights makes that easier, especially if they're cap strapped.

The Kings game is going to OT! It's nice that they're on a back-to-back too. I hope Oladipo is back in game shape because he played 37 minutes tonight.

After the game tomorrow, the Magic will have played 16 road games. The next closest team is Chicago with 13. San Antonio has played 12, and there are two teams that have played 11. (None of them play away games tomorrow.)

I just can't get over this.

Detroit loses to Philly at home in OT for their 11th straight loss. Brutal.

Drew Gordon, Aaron's brother, has been waived by the 76ers. Bummer.

I thought Detroit would be better because of Stan. They are built funky though.

Its such a poorly built team with guys that cant shoot and dont fit together. Add that they have very poor bball iq and cant pass and it was bound to be a disaster.

The Pistons were 10-10 at this point last season. SVG is failing hard. I bet we could unload Frye on him if we wanted.

The Celtics beat the Wizards at home then lost tonight in 2 0T in Washington. All their losses have been against very good teams except OKC without Russ/Durant. They have one of the highest strength-of-schedule numbers but don't wilt in blowouts as often as our team.

I wouldn't be surprised if they're higher than the Magic in the standings at the end of the year. In fact, it could be as soon as their game against us a week from Wednesday.

I don't post this to start an argument. I just enjoy keeping an eye on our rebuilding peers.

OMG. That was worst than when a friend of mine tried to make a layup and threw the ball over the board.
