They also got Leuer and Shaun, Brockman is useless, IMO.

They cleared 1.7M in salaries too, maybe a run at Deron?

The Lake Mary one is awful small to be hosting this thing..They must not expect a huge turnout for the 19th pick

Winter Park one has size plus the nice outside area. Plus, a huge parking lot. I don't do tight quarters of shoulder to shoulder myself. Except on the $7 all you can drink nights out by UCF back in the day.

Mike Bresnahan ‏@Mike_Bresnahan
The Atlanta Hawks have been pursuing Pau Gasol, The Times has learned. Nothing imminent, but Josh Smith would be key piece going to Lakers.

I think they have a very good plan in mind... they have only 40M committed for next season.

Making moves for the sake of making moves. Maybe they're trying to get better picks to try and move up for Howard in some way

No truth to the rumors yet. Maybe it has been discussed, but nothing is final yet. So far, it is still just a rumor. An interesting one at that.

What the hell kind of shenanigans is Houston up to?

after watching this video
few things come to mind:

rob is a great mind
D12 is gone
JJ might be used on draft day to move up

It's been confirmed by a few big name sources.

Houston will have to get a top 5 pick for us to let go of Dwight IMO.

Watching that video and the presser last week. One thing is for sure...the members of the media are going to become more and more frustrated.

Rob answers every question as if he's running for office. LOVE IT!

There is just that one Yahoo tweet by Adrian Wojnorowski, Yahoo! Sports in all the internet.

Maybe they work something out for the bobcats trade of tyrus Thomas and the #2 pick and offer that to Orlando

It's basically done. Yahoo is usually right.
