Re: Around the NBA 12
Want pj back on 20 mil. We are finally in a spot where we can have a above average nba roster, especially with miles back. Gordon comes off the books this summer. Mark Willams starting full time will balance this team out more then I think most recognize.

We don't need to pay him $20 million. If you do the maths he'd be stupid to accept the QO if he has been offered in the vicinity of $15-17 million per annum.

Re: Around the NBA 12
Saw this link and wanted to share it. I’m not a “People” magazine reader, but they got access to the wedding of our old buddy Cody Zeller getting married in Nashville. Looks like a beautiful young lady and a good family. Congrats Cody!

I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Had like a 4 year 80 million dollar deal last 3 years unguaranteed. Rockets thanking their lucky stars for that.

Re: Around the NBA 12
4/63 with incentives for each year that could've pushed the total to 4/~82 if the team was good (which they are not, and won't be for a couple years). Apparently has $1M guaranteed for next season already, $3M if he's rostered on opening night, $6M if he makes it past the trade deadline.Liver_Pooty wrote:SWedd523 wrote:Just saw he pulled a Miles.

Either way, he probably winds up suspended for a serious chunk of that one guaranteed year and loses the basically all the rest... if the whole thing's not voided entirely. Houston very carefully put together that contract knowing all the baggage he came with and he still fumbled basically all of it.
investigate Adam Silver

To those who were asking why our FO didn't act while the league was investigating, there you go.

Miles response to Austin Rivers saying Troubled youth,” Rivers told Pausha Haghighi, per The Ringer. “What's the standard that's being set there? The whole thing there, it's not LaMelo's fault. […] He just needs help. […] Surround LaMelo [Ball] around f**king people that can help him tap into his potential, not deplete it.” Austin Rivers said that the onus to be the team leader should not fall on LaMelo Ball's shoulders. Rather, he should just focus on being the best version of himself on the court, especially in the aftermath of the huge extension he signed.

Re: Around the NBA 12
I saw a comment "Rivers is lucky he's a man or else Miles would beat his ass"
I know it shouldn't be funny, but that one got me

Re: Around the NBA 12
The Blazers aren't keeping Jrue Holiday. Mitch needs to do what it takes to get him. He is exactly what this roster is missing, both on and off the court.

Re: Around the NBA 12
I have loved Dame -> MIL for a long time I just didn't think they'd get a deal done due to their love for Jrue/Middleton.

I would give up an unwise volume of assets to get Holiday

it would be like to 2 combo guards, Lamelo plays well off the ball as well. the defense, leadership and secondary ball handler Jrue provides would be perfect
