Yea but still..would be franchise suicide to let your super duper star player go for pennies on the dollar. They might go hard to trade him before they pay him but they won't take pennies..it's going to have to be a major incoming value to let him go. A trade with Boston for example probably only happens if Tatum and Brown are going out along with the Sacto pick..
They dreaming guy has not played in year... Be lucky to get Brown and few seconds. He was not high draft pick and there is no upside left.imho. as much as Brown is drama queen not trading him even for bigger drama queen that doesn't want to play basketball.
Brown is a drama queen?

What?

Dafuq? How is Brown a drama queen?

I personally don't think we have many drama guys on this team. Marcus is the wild card. I wouldn't mind another wild card type guy. Keep it spicy.

Raps vs Cavs. Still can't see the Raps beating Bron in a series. Nope just won't happen. LeBron will forever be their Father.

Lowry really had 5 points against the Cavs. Playoff form really has come early.

Update on the tank race:

7- Nets 25W
8- Bulls 27W
9- Knicks 27W

The Bulls play the Nets twice, and I cant imagine they win either game. Our last game of the year vs Brooklyn looms large and tanking it could result in the Nets finishing with the 9th best odds. Given that its on the second end of a B2B, Im all for playing Allen-Bird-Nader-Semi-Yabu for all 48 minutes.

Says the #1 reason LeBron will leave is that Gilbert is a big Trump supporter. This guy nailed LeBron to Miami in 2010 and had him going back to Cleveland 2 days before everyone else so I trust him.

LOL yikes, I mean I'm pretty certain about 75% of owners in all four major sports are Trump supporters.

Maybe he'll go to the Mavs to play for Cuban then.

Cavs don’t deserve to win any more lotteries.

Great win by the Nets. Looking like 7-9 will be there range. Knicks are tanking pretty hard. Sadly Chicago has won a few games. We should beat them tomorrow to help the cause.

Wizards are a joke. Easily the least clutch team in the NBA. Them vs. the Craptors in Round 1 would be fascinating, but I'd be a little surprised if they don't get us.
