They're saying Mavs, Hawks, Cavs for Bynum. Maybe Ellis to Hawks, Kaman to Lakers perhaps.

That guy broke the Dwight to the Rockets a few minutes before Sam Amick. Maybe it's legit.

I said Dwight to the Rockets in June.

I GOT MY SOURCES.

Saying I am sure Dwight goes to Houston, which I also though all along is vastly different than saying what he said, which was essentially identical to what Sam said, but no one kills him because he has a reputation. I am just saying it is worth following, everyone gets their start somewhere. Hell, people were killing that Arye kid until they realized he was beating everyone to the punch about dwights meetings due to his sources (a hotel doorman being one).

Sweet. If they get him, that means Kyrie will be available when his contract is up after the 2015-16 season.

If you draw that conclusion, it means you're dreaming

We may have gotten the best player in the second round for two straight years (?)

On another note, if it's not us for the time being, I'd love the Cavs to beat Miami in the playoffs.

Well it was kind of meant as a joke. But we are rebuilding. It is the time to think of that stuff. Ideally I want John Wall. Call me a dreamer, whatever.

...but how does it affect our flexibility?

So many people look at a contract and if it is longer than a year, for a somewhat substantial amount, that it is going to ruin our future.

We all need to come to the realization that we will not be players in Free Agency until the summer of 2015...at the earliest.

Hennigan's main focus will be retaining our own guys and looking to make a big move, ala the Houston Rockets, in the trade market...not free agency. Look at all of the contracts being handed out this summer...how many of those players actually deserve those contracts? Dwight only does if he comes back to his old form. The rest are VERY questionable contracts.

So, even if we did go for anyone in Free Agency during the summer of 2015....Lin would be off the books.

I don't necessarily want Lin...but the notion that his contract is a major deterrent because we lose flexibility...well that is just wrong.

Actually I thought that his contract went for 4 years, not just 3. So in this case, yea, it's not nearly as bad as I thought. John Wall 2015-2016!

This video has only 38.2% of Ryan's 3pt attempts.

also omits his -4.7 offensive defensive rating differential per 100 possessions and -32.9 rating differential in clutch time.

We should get #OlaBEASTo trending on Twitter. That'd be HILARIOUS!

@ESPNSteinLine: Yet there are also fresh rumbles that Sacramento is trying to muscle into the Monta-Stakes and challenge Atlanta's presumed edge for Ellis

@ESPNSteinLine: There's more ...

@ESPNSteinLine: Alternative scenario starting to circulate has Hawks & Bucks talking sign-and-trade -- Jennings for Teague -- with Monta winding up in SAC

If Milwaukee trades Jennings for Teague and loses Monte....Hammond will be crucified

rcklsscognition · Post #977 » by **rcklsscognition** » Mon Jul 8, 2013 6:34 am

Eww, don't like this for McLemore getting ROTY! Oladipo better request Afflalo get traded so he can take the award. And a serious lol at hammond if he turns Ellis and Jennings into Teague. I don't care if they're UFA, RFA, not interested in returning, whatever, that is bad. There are always teams dumb enough to take on scorers like that.

Post #978 » by **SOUL** » Mon Jul 8, 2013 6:35 am

Nah, Bucks fans want Teague. Jennings is a chucker that wants 15 MIL and Monta has been gone.

Post #979 » by **Bensational** » Mon Jul 8, 2013 8:39 am

i don't rate Jennings that highly, but i think he could be a lot better on a different team. i also don't think Atlanta is that team, either.

if I'm Milwaukee, i try to orchestrate a 4-way trade:

ATL: Jennings
HOU: Teague + Ilyasova
POR: Asik
MIL: McCollum + Withey + Lin + DM

Sanders/Withey
Henson/Udoh/DM
Mbah a Moute
Mayo
Lin/McCollum

i'd much rather watch that team over the Jennings/Monta show.
