I would really like Beverley or Lin as the backup PG. Both have a lot of suitors though and the Bulls can only pay the taxpayer's MLE.

No chance Beverely isn't retained by Houston. Lin is a very realistic option. I prefer Stuckey but could live with Lin.

I'd be pretty disappointed with Lin compared to even Brooks (*whom I hated).

 

Lin got outplayed by an undrafted Free Agent last year. I'm not sure he does anything more useful than the tiny vet min PGs.

 

Ugh, what a bucket of crap this year.

Thompson rumored to be getting a 5 year $80 million deal from the Cavs.

 

Cavs are gonna pay their 2 power forwards nearly $40 million next year. That's almost 2/3 of the cap.

After progress was made yesterday, Cavs & Tristan Thompson are currently still apart on contract talks, sources told ESPN.

 

 

 

crazyyyyyyy

 

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 28m28 minutes ago

Sources: If Mavs miss on DeAndre Jordan, it's expected talks with Indiana on Monta Ellis-Roy Hibbert centered sign-and-trade will happen.

Riley is meeting with Aldridge tonight. I'm not sure how they can work it out salary-wise if Portland doesn't want a S&T.

Wow. Quite the turn of events. If he chooses them, Riley solidifies himself as a true GOAT and the favorites in the East.

 

Dragic

Winslow

Bosh

LMA

Whiteside

 

That's absurd.

Whiteside will come off the bench, Deng would start.

Deng would presumably be gone if they do get LMA.

I would. They'd have the two best PFs in the East and a top 3 c and top 5 pg and top 5 sg. It wouldn't be a case of lollebronownstheeast when it'd be a class of the West as well. But now that Wade is in for that money becomes the problem. If anyone can make it work, it's the don.

a buddy of mine texted me that Oladipo is lining up for a 5/145M max contract next season with the new money. That is just silly

That's why the Bulls should be very glad they got Butler extended for under $100M.

 

Oladipo knows he's pretty much the Franchise Guy with Orlando, but is he worth Max Money yet, no absolutely not.

 

Will be interesting to see what happens there.

Very surprised the Lakers are getting a 2nd interview with Aldridge as well, considering the first one went so badly.

 

Apparently Kupchak and Byron Scott are going to be attending this one though, but uh maybe they should have ya know been at the first one, instead of the Lakers just selling how much money LA could make on outside endorsements as their main pitch?

 

I couldn't see Bosh and Aldridge co-existing in Miami either, I think Phoenix is the wild-card team, they dumped salary to Detroit, so they have the cap room now.

Bosh would have to play like a 3. While that's fine offensively, I don't think it'd workout so well on the other end.

Wes Matthews is signing with Dallas so the Kings have struck out there even though they offered 4/65.

 

Almost $17 million a year for Wes Matthews? Not to mention the guy just tore his Achilles.

DeAndre Jordan on the verge of signing with the Mavs. I think this really ups Joakim and Taj's trade value. The Clippers are without a center right now.

 

 

They have nothing to deal though: Redick, Crawford, and picks for Noah? The money has to match
