A productive expiring, or a garbage expiring?
A very necessary distinction.

Daniel Gibson? No.

On top of that, Taylor is trying to sell the team and its unlikely any buyer is going to be interested in holding out hope for Williams' potential.

If we cant sign Pekovic and Bud without dumping Dwill's contract, then yes. Though fairly certain we can sign both by getting rid of Ridnour and Roy's contract being voided/retired

Works financially, but this is BS. It doesn't really make sense, particularly for the Lakers. Slow news day - figured I'd post.

It would surprise me quite a bit, since, you know, it's really awful for Minnesota.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

Pau gets a bad rap. He's a center asked to play PF and guard perimeter players. He's much better than he's shown the last two seasons playing out of position and I think front office execs recognize that.
