Macklemore? Would have been a better commentator then Ann Meyers Drysdale. Provided some entertainment rapping the play by play.

Man, the season hasn't even started and I'd strongly entertain the idea of trade for Okafor.

How long until Memphis decides to blow it up? they seem to have Conley and Gasol on big dollars, and not much else. I'd take either of Those guys on this squad.

Philly seems really dumb, can we somehow trade them Knight for Okafor + salary filler?

They dont have salary filler. They are currently sitting $17M BELOW THE SALARY CAP FLOOR!!

My idea is Okafor+TJ for Chandler/Future 2nd.

You have to give them SOME incentive for making the trade

Money's not really a big deal for us right now, especially if it means getting the right vets to pair with our young guys. The ones we have arent providing development or production, but would have value to other teams as role playing vets.

MEM I think are over the cap and we can offer a combination of picks, youth and cap relief.

I dunno. Gasol is still owed 70+m over the next three seasons. Conley has just one year into his $150+m deal. This season might not matter but next offseason will since it's the first opportunity we'll be able to lock up Booker. I don't want either guy's deals in our books when our young guys come up for new deals.

It looks like Chandler will start given Watson said today that we need vet experience to start the game.

Starters - Bledsoe, Booker, Warren, Chriss, Chandler
6th Man - Jackson
Backups - Ulis, Daniels, Bender, Len
-----
DNP - James, Jones, Peters
Injured - Knight, Reed, Dudley, Williams

Also ... can't see any of these players going up to Prescott. 13 healthy players ... 14 if you count Dudley.

Because Mike James is our best player? Duh.

This joke is going to get painful, fast, as its truth becomes undeniable.

Trade rumors getting to him? Idk.

Not too worried about Bledsoe. You know once the games start we're getting a 20/6/5 guy.
