No idea but all I know is their wasting everyone's time cause they have no chance. They should have just went hard after Monroe or something.

If we get LMA we get Amare. Then, we can definitely trade Morri without hurting or bench.

Time to take Steve Nash to the fountain of youth and go for winning that ring for all of them

Honestly maybe we sign Marion to a 1 year vet min deal we sign Amar'e back and we have Nash as our coach.

Imagine that. How special would that be if we somehow miraculously made a run and won it all with all of them on the team

We should sign Nash. Have the training staff create new legs for him. #Winning.

Supposedly they are going after Lopez, wonder if they are trying to do something similar to what we did with Tyson for LMA?

Amare still got it

Clearly lost his explosion, but his mid-range jumper is still solid.

2013-14 highlights.

I think he's still good for at least 10-12 points a game. Still a top PnR or PnP player.

Meanwhile in L.A...

NYK: Okay LaMarcus... we know you don't want to play Center, and look up to a guy like Chandler or Duncan, so we went and got you Robin Lopez!

LMA: (tries not to laugh) Thanks.

NYK: Good. Now... here are the many ways we can get the ball to Melo...

LMA: Thank You for your time.

apparently LMA liked playing next to Lopez, but I'm not sure if he likes him more than Tyson.

LMA and Tyson play together on the Men's National Team??

Don't underestimate the value of PJ Tucker, Earl Watson and being the only Superstar on a team. I don't count Bledsoe as a star yet. He has to prove it long time and all season long.

Also Monroe going to MKE is bad for PDX trying to resign Aldridge.

The pitch was Monroe and Aldridge but that plan is bust now.

Portland I think is out of it. LA is out of it.

It's us and the Spurs.

Maybe houston/dallas bc of the texas connection with his kid and LA is from Dallas.

I really think it comes down to us or the Spurs and hopefully he signs on emotion here being the face of the franchise before logic settles in and he can be a spur and coached by popovich lol

Was just about to post Stein's tweet. I'm really hoping LMA LOATHES playing the 5. Come to PHX :pray:

That is awesome!

Helps our cause for sure. He doesn't want to play C, and Spurs have no C's outside of a 39 year old Duncan who will surely need his back-to-back's off and a limit on his minutes.

Where as we have.... Tyson Chandler, Alex Len, and Leuer who all play C.

Hurts Dallas' chance at LMA. Who do they have at PG now? Aging Dirk. Rondo gotta be going somewhere else.

Good deal for us! I know Ellis wasn't gonna stay in Dallas, he was having a lot of issues there last year, but this just helps our case more for Aldridge.
It also weakens one of our rivals, which is another plus 1!
