As a Wolves fan, I am very grateful for this news!

Hopefully this allows us to sign Dragic. Dragic > Lin. Additionally, Courtney Lee is the most overrated player on our roster. Now with Lamb we already have another SG at very low price so Lee is expendable IMO.

That being said, I still have no idea what the hell is going on with our roster...I feel like there is 0 direction or plan.

I will be so disgusted if this team signs Jeremy Lin. So f'n overrated just cause he had a two week orgasm in New York. And as much heat I might take for this, id much rather have Dragic than Lowry. Dragic has more potential to be a better player than Lowry. Geez look at his numbers after Lowry went down. In my opinion, this guy has Steve Nash potential. I hope we give him the contract he wants. I know we have money, cause we sure aint spending it on Howard or Williams. No one will volunteering sign here anyway.

A two week orgasm sounds pretty friggin great if you ask me. Especially if it comes with tens of millions of dollars as a windfall..

That's like f**king and marrying Oprah, but only if she looked like Gabrielle Union.

I'm just saying.

You should try to make a deal for Gordon, you've got pretty nice pieces for NOLA.

Yes I think that is Morey's plan since he has difficulty in trading Kevin Martin and Lamb need playing time. Also free up some money to sign another PG/SG. Rockets may offer Lin but not necessary similar to Asik. Morey will attempt to trade Kevin Martin near trade deadline and let Lamb starts in 2nd half of next season.

One possibility/direction: See Steve Nash is allowing Knicks to offer a sign and trade package, Rockets may get involved, doing some sign n trades. Suns is pursuing Eric Gordon but if they lose out on Nash, they will go after Dragic. Suns/Knicks/Rockets can have sign n trades involving all 3 pgs (Nash/Dragic/Lin) or throwing in Lowry to get back Dragic.

Looks like Gordon is going nowhere unless it is a S&T. Can the Rockets reissue the offer

I guess Lee was bait for Dwight Howard, so no longer necessary that we aren't getting him.

Lee is being pursued by the Wizards and to no surprise the Chicago Bulls. I have a feeling he will end up in Chicago. A Lee-Asik trade has been rumored in the past and now a swap may eventually happen in the form of free agency.

I'm a fan of Lee, I wish him best wherever he ends up.

Tbh, I think his game got thrown off a bit by the rescinded trade, the Lowry defection, and how it tied in with his free agents, and he's a bit in panic mode.

Unless you're just stone bloody cold, having a 3+ year long plan get blown up is bound to rattle you a bit.
