I hate that it feels likely. I hate this so much.

there's so many angles for me if this happened.

obviously i'd love it as a clipper fan. and in some way i hate it for the 76ers for because i want them to succeed based off of hinkie's legacy. but then i kind of want and expect bryan colangelo to do exactly what everyone thinks he's gonna do in terms of handing out horrible contracts to players he shouldn't give a dime to.

No deal would make me happier, but I read it as he's coming straight back to the Clippers as soon as the Durant pipedream is over. And with a big long contract probably

They'll be making the same amount as Lebron this year.

It's more the length than the amount with us.

A max 1+1? Sure.

Interesting Layden is doing most of the talking today.

Also when asked what Lee's tag might be he told someone about $14m per season.

I wouldn't put it past them to just roll out Dion and their four Centers at the same time. That would be such a Vivek thing to do.

I actually think the Kings will be OK. Joerger's a solid coach, and they're really trying to flip Koufos, who should net a decent return based on his deal.

In junior high we had a lineup with our point guard and our four tallest players. The point guard would chuck up a shot and the four bigs would crash the glass. Surprisingly effective.

Against the Warriors and Thunder, not so sure.

That will help their defense.

My guess is that the Knicks will release Noah's contract details shortly before Sportscenter. Lead story time......

Z-Bo like, damn man, first Gasol, then Parsons, now Conley. fml. lol.

Good for Grizz tho and keeping Gasol/Conley together. If they stay healthy, I think they could some damage.

But the question is; if in the event of break glass in case of emergency if and when the new CBA is negotiated/signed, who out those 3 is getting amnestied? I'm goin with Parsons. :lol:

Does Brooklyn still go after Rondo with Lin signing?

Interesting tidbit in here:

http://www.bostonglobe.com/sports/celtics/2016/07/01/evan-turner-leaves-celtics-for-trail-blazers/J4GTZkFeeu3uiqQzoJ714M/story.html

Turner said he worked out with Kyle Korver — Horford’s Atlanta teammate — in Santa Barbara, Calif., on Thursday. Korver told Turner that Horford was ultimately going to re-sign with the Hawks. But then on Friday, Turner said, Horford sent Korver a text message asking him to call him, and Turner had a sense that something might have shifted.
