When you see the other teams adding and you are just stewing in your old juices it's a very negative feeling for a franchise. Worse is that we know we want to be active and can't trade squat for peep.

It all boils down to ownership and how much they are willing to pay. Imagine having two draft picks and an expiring contract in Carroll this off-season. That's three assets gone because of one year of luxury tax.

Billups is my favorite analyst.

Wish he was there when Hoffa was drafted.

Seeing David Robinson makes me wonder if we'll ever see Tim Duncan. Like ever again. I'm guessing no.

That was my thought. Huerter is kind of like Trey except defensively. Young seems to selfish to be Curry despite the assists though, and his shot selection is atrocious.
