    Think there may be a flaw in the above, Morey only drops Treys no Dueces, the analytics don’t support that kind of activity at Whatburger, especially at 1AM

    That's 10-15 minutes that our 34 year old Boxer, the Horse, doesn't have to put on his body.

    Surprised he's lasted this long.

    Maybe Patrick asked him nicely not to?

    He is the ONE guy I look to if I have an NBA salary cap question, and can't discern the answer in the Salary Cap FAQ.

    An absolute treasure.

    Tristan Thompson Won't Accept Buyout With Cavaliers If Not Traded By Deadline

    Tristan Thompson will not accept a buyout from the Cleveland Cavaliers if he is not traded before Thursday's deadline, sources close to the situation tell RealGM.

    Multiple teams continue to discuss a trade with the Cavaliers for Thompson, who is on an $18.5 million expiring contract. Thompson will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason coming off a five-year, $82 million deal signed in 2015 as a restricted free agent.

    Rumor is Pistons and Suns are working on a deal sending Kennard to the Suns. They hit a snag in their talks however in the draft pick protections.

    Foot-longs. He stares into the bowl, pre-flush; it's like a giant biscotti sticking out of a doppio espresso.

    I think it depends on what the expectations are.

    I believe they will get a center who can play 15 minutes a night and they have a chance at getting a wing.

    This is the most desperate Morey has been.

    Even more desperate than the period where he went fishing for a future superstar by trading for pretty much everyone from the 2009 draft? (Of course he ended up with the best player but still :) )

    Yes I think so.

    There is a new owner now.

    After thinking about things,

    I would trade House and trade a 1st rd pick for Kennard and sign O'Quinn as a buyout. In addition to trying to trade a 2nd for Bolden.

    I don't really see how Robinson is available for a 1st round pick like our own, and it's a 2022 pick...also, Damien Jones shouldn't really require a 1st rounder, couldn't even get much time in Atlanta.

    Regardless, i really see no reason for the Rockets to move picks for most of those players when they have Hartenstein, aside for Robinson (huge upside), Noel (budget Capela), Kieff (small ball center), Wagner (young stretch 5).

    I think the Lakers will end up better if they swap Kuzma for Morris, Kuzma can score but imo he's really overrated because he had some 20/30 pioints games here and there, his defense is ass, Marcus is an upgrade on both ends and in terms of toughness for a team that will try to win like the Lakers.

    What i don't like for them is that they would've to move Green which on paper is perfect to play with Lebron, but the Lakers will be big players in the buyout market, maybe they already know someone will sign to replace Green.

    They are just my estimates and my opinions.

    As for Hartenstein, his defense is a major problem...... there is a reason he isn't playing.

    Fair enough, but if that's the case, half of those guys wouldn't play either. At that point i'd rather take O'Quinn out of Philly for free or the worst 2nd rounder possible.
