    I don't understand Atlanta.

    they essentially gave away Bazemore in a swap and now are taking on CP in a swap.

    What's the benefit here?

    They are all expiring and make the same money. So useless trade.

    Didnt even know Plumplee was still in the league.

    The only benefit I can think of is that they want to function as dumpsters with their 14 mil capspace and wanted to open roster spots.

    Amazingly they wanted a lot from the Rockets last year to get Bazemore and they ended up moving him for a worse player and no pick.

    Might as well get Parsons, Lin and Dwight back and see what we can do. Make it happen DM. Oh and for anyone that thinks I'm serious, I'm not at all.

    Jamal Crawford, Richard Jefferson, Carmelo Anthony, Jeremy Lin, Allen Crabbe, Evan Turner, Solomon Hill, Miles Plumlee, Chandler Parsons

    Atlanta is the human dumping ground.

    Meanwhile, has Parsons returned from his adventure on what I assume was a rented yacht off of Ibiza, partying with Blake Griffin and a bunch of grade B “hot chicks?” It’s been posted here before, somewhere. Maybe Atlanta thinks he’ll improve their international “image.”

    Parsons turned out to be a real douchelord.

    The Hawks are building around young players, but are open to giving Parsons an opportunity to earn a role in his final year under contract. If another team shows interest in signing him, a contract buyout always remains a possibility.

    The Grizzlies and Parsons mutually wanted to move on, but Memphis was not willing to give Parsons a buyout unless he gave the franchise a significant discount, sources said.

    I don't blame him for not taking a buyout. Chances are he never gets a real contract again. No way I'd give up millions if I were him.

    $94 million
    95 games played with Memphis
    Knowingly signed him even after he had knee issues in Dallas
    Good job Memphis.
