My guess is that once Washington matches Brooklyn's sheet on Porter then the Nets will come calling for him.

Just went to the Knicks forum to see what they thought about signing Hardaway. They are praying for the Hawks to match. They are up to 92 pages now on Hardaway alone. Holy Cow.

Assuming The Wizards match Porter, KCP to the Nets seems like a sure thing.

That's a good trade for Boston, considering they were up against the wall a bit.
Shed $3 million in salary ANDget a front court player that can fit in your rotation too...win/win.

How much KCP is asking? 15? 20?

I think I missed something on the Boston/Detroit trade. Is it Morris straight up for Bradley? Is it a done deal? Does it clear the necessary cap room for Hayward?

My update had Hardaway for 4/$17 and I thought great signing, when I checked to see the actual I was thinking "holy cow" too.

Lol at Bradley for Morris. Boston got robbed here in terms of value. Bradley is a very good player.

The problem is that he is an expiring contract. Now IT4 demands max contract, Ainge has been risking his job if Tatum fails, IT4 gets max contract and declines while Fultz thrives.

1 year of Bradley vs. 2 years of Morris isn't a bad deal. Bradley will get paid $20M/year next year and Morris will make $5M.

I just found out that not only did Boston send Avery they also included a second round pick.

They filled in a hole in the roster with a much needed 4. Oh, and he had the best defensive numbers in the league guarding LeBron last post season. Small sample size I know, but it can't be ignored.

I find Paul George's comments pretty interesting. I always felt like his supposedly burning desire to go to the Lakers didn't make a lot of sense. Does he really value playing in LA so much that he's willing to go to a lottery bound team? The Lakers are probably 2-3 years from having a chance to turn things around. They can try and pull a Thibs and accelerate the process but they will have to give up some of their core youth. I think going to LA is a huge gamble for George at this time and I never believed he was a shoe in to go there as soon as he could as everyone seems to portray he is.

Rubio better watch out for Donovan Mitchell, he's putting out some special games that showcase his offensive firepower.

Post #175 » by **Calinks** » Wed Jul 12, 2017 2:31 am

He looks really good. Making Jazz fans forget about Hayward, might be a steal

Mitchell was my draft favorite. He is a really special player.

I never understood that trade down for Den, and it looks even worse now.

Good. It'll spread out the games a bit. That should mean fewer back-to-backs.

Has that become official yet? I was thinking that with Noel still unsigned that he could be a good gamble for the Nets....unless they just want to be a dump your bad contracts by including a pick repository.
