@drewmack78 Yep, but you already know which one it is. Involves a ``large infant.'' Keep eyes and ears open for J-Rich sign and trade.


JRich s&t? to whom, for what. didn't the Bulls just get Crawford? Who else could want JRich other than a contender?

maybe the GSW rumour is legit, particularly if they can shed some salary by getting Monta's $11M down to $8M for JRich - to have more room to offer DeAndre Jordan a contract.

I'm pretty sure that's not Denton's real twitter account. I think he actually signed up today @tennvoll

I love Clark but not sure he is a need anymore we need backup PG, SG, C.
Harper and Big Baby may be the end of Earl unless there is a deal.

Gotta keep Stan around based on his quotes alone.

If there is a deal brewing between Orlando, Sixers, and GS, then what would be the likely outcome of that? Meaning what players would be involved?

Clark wants to stay and we want to sign him but we gotta make big moves first. He just needs to stay low and we'll take care of him when it's time. Patience.

Stan was very pleased with the conditioning of everyone that was in camp today. They didn't play any live ball but drilled hard for 3 hours.

The big baby signing will NOT keep dwight in orlando. There has to be another player coming. If not then otis made a stupid move signing big baby because honestly hes not that great of player. The only thing i can think of is since we are signing older guards then jj and jrich could be on the way out for ellis or iggy. This is hopeful thinking though.

If the nba gets chris paul to the lakers then is doesn't matter because dwight wil be traded to LA for bynum and there is nothing we can do about it.

^ I'm only okay with BBD if something else is coming as well. It just doesn't make sense for that to be our only major move.

when has a rumored (for more than 48hrs) Orl deal ever taken place? At this point, I'd say Iggy, Ellis, JSmith are out of the equation. Gotta start looking at guys that haven't crossed our minds lately.

I have to believe Otis would not have taken Big Baby for 4 years without another deal in the works. Ryan and JJ could net us a SG with Harper on the roster and Earl wanting to come back.

Alot is hinging on what happens with cp3.
if its ellis were after-gsw are prob trying to sweeten offer for cp3 now. also otis could be trying to get cp3 in a 3 way and if that doesnt work then hell move on to plan B which is jrich to wherever

You'd think so.

The problem here is that we're talking about Otis Smith.
