Robin at 12-13mil? Or Chandler at 14mil? Think we got a better deal.


Apparently also considering the Lakers, so hopefully signs with NYK so that the Lakers don't have a defensive C they can try to pitch Aldridge with.


With Brook in Brooklyn, I'd be shocked if he didn't sign with NYK if he gets the offer, but are they not still considering Jordan? Or hoping to meet with him at least.

Free agent center Robin Lopez discussing deal with Knicks that would earn him in range of $12M-$13M per season, league sources tell Yahoo.


Wowww... Chandler's contract is gonna be an steal. Lopez is a decent C, but not better tha Brandan Wright in my opinion. Bigger, but not really a great finisher around the rim, although he has improved the last two years.

He's a far better defender though. Wright is an awesome finisher but Chandler doesn't have problem catching it and slamming it down.

Patric Young no longer will be on the Suns and Clippers summer teams. He signed a deal with Euroleague runner-up Olympiacos.

I guess he does like roller coasters. They might just have to say "We have no wait passes for Disneyland rides" and he signs right then and there;

I took a nap earlier and woke up by a bad dream screaming " he's coming to Phoenix, damn it". Does that mean the dream was about LMA or someone else. :o

We're talking about Robin Lopez, btw. Not Aldridge.

Since you said "Damn it", maybe its Rondo? He is from Kentucky and he is a guard so he has McD's attention ;)

Are you talking about the place by Metrocenter? Man if that's still there, that's been there forever.

Back in the day, people used to cruise Metrocenter...I'm talking drive around in circles for no reason hoping to see and get down with hot chicks. Please tell me that still doesn't happen.

WTF?? Did Stein make a mistake or is this some kind of sick joke!?


Why would that be a sick joke? Simmons, Lowe and Rose were predicting before injury he might get like 5/80 or something.
