I like that deal for Milwaukee. When you have a guy like Giannis whose going to be your primary rebounder that will take some pressure off Brook

Plus Brook can space the floor. The Bucks sorely needed floor spacing in their frontcourt, and they got it by signing Ilyasova and Lopez.

Their defense might have some issues up front if Maker doesn't take a step forward this year, though.

Good signing for Bucks, imo. One year deal at BAE.

I agree, solid move.

I really want Beverly on our team. No idea why, I think he would fit like a glove here.
Good assessment:

Not sure about New Orleans' cap situation, but I can definitely see them as a fit for Ellington or someone like Jamal Crawford. Their bench is AWFUL and they have done nothing to address it.

How bad is the deal the Kings are about to give Hood? $50m?

Wow, I said the CP3 contract was brutal since HOU would never sniff the finals, but, man, they're just losing everybody. If they replace Ariza and Mbah a Moute with Melo, yikes. Couldn't be a worse offseason.

Ariza could be replaced by Nunnally for a fraction of the cost, not bad. Melo sucks though I agree.

Could be. I'm fine with Danny doing that trick with end of rotation guys. Doing it to replace starters is a little more risky. Mbah a Moute is a tough loss to me. He was one of the reasons HOU was surprisingly competent on D last year.

At least Chris Paul reached the conference finals and Morey won the Executive of the Year award before it turned to ****.

This is why Ainge is really careful at managing the Cs assets. Can't be too reckless with signings and trades in a capped league.
