If you're watching through cable/satellite, you just turn to that particular channel. It works for league pass broadband as well, but I'm the wrong to be giving information about that.

Memphis sent big man Marreese Speights, guard Wayne Ellington, guard Josh Selby and a future first-round draft pick to the Cavs for forward Jon Leuer.

Forbes' NBA team valuations are out. The Clippers rank 18th at $430M which is a considerable jump from last season. I don't remember the exact number, but I think it was over a $100M less.

what do teams actually have that makes them more valuable?

superstar?
something tangible?
popularity? appeal?

it's about time for this Clipper team to get healthy.

if CP3 isn't back for toronto....then I'm going to be worried.
we need chauncey back.

this team needs to put in the practices and minutes on the court together going into the playoffs....i don't want to rush chauncey out there without him having played enough games/ minutes with this team.

I heard that Paul may miss 2 weeks. It's been about a week and there's still no timetable on his return. We're getting ready to start the dreaded Grammy Road Trip, but the competition isn't all that scary. I could see him missing the first few games and begin playing sometime midway through the road trip.

Billups is close. He's putting in work, and it sounds like all he needs is 5 on 5 work. The problem is that we're probably only going to get one true practice this week and that will be between now and the Wolves game on Wednesday. Starting Friday, we'll have 7 games in 11 days, it's only going to be rest and walk-throughs.

That really sucked to find out. I don't know if you guys saw the look on Pierce's face when he found out post game via Doris Burke. Doc knew, but didn't tell the team and then Pierce find's out on live in a post-game interview.

Trade rumors have been swirling around the Celtics for quite some time now. I'm kind of anxious to find out what their plans are. Pierce's name has been floating around. Rondo should be back around the start of the season, but does Ainge look to rebuild sooner rather than later? A lot of teams would be interested in Garnett if they made him available. Pierce can help some teams, but the salary is a turn-off.

Ok, thanks. I find this really unusual.

I was hoping he becomes available soon so he can either go to the dleague or play during blowouts. I really want him to be part of the future of the team...

I'd like to see him get some garbage minutes as well. At the very least, I see him going to summer league and training camp. If he shows some serious improvement/promise, perhaps we'll keep him 1 more season. Otherwise, he'll end up like Willie and Travis. At the price that he is making next season, we may be better off cutting ties and signing a ring chasing vet to a minimum deal.
