Wow.

The biggest surprise to me is that Anderson's 20mil is for 4 years. He's a good shooter but that guy is very injury prone and has a lot to prove.

Knicks, Celtics, Pacers all look good.

Nets meanwhile stay stagnant and are committed to tanking without control of their picks.

They have no bench and are capped out. With so much invested in the starters, it takes just one injury or geriatric spasm to derail that team and the Rose-colored glasses come off. The suckage will be enjoyable to see because, this time, they got some expectations.

man, it's been pretty dead quiet with Rondo talks. Last I heard he was meeting with Bulls, and then how the Kings were walking away from him.

That's ok.

Crawford is good scorer but he's not big on team play. I'd rather have a vet who can lead by example, even though the scoring punch wouldn't hurt.

from what little clips I've seen of TJ now it looks like he's going to be our version of Crawford anyway. Combo scoring guard off the bench.

With increased playing time, I know Johnson's TS% (.579) will dip but he's way more efficient than Crawford (.529), which is sad considering how much time Crawford has had in this league.

Crawford shot 40% from the field last season and he's a career 41% shooter. That's bad.

I get the feeling we're not letting any first or second rounder go anytime soon.
