    a quick google search reveals no new articles regarding his whereabouts since he was released from the Rockets. Unfortunately, in this case no news is bad news (for the likelihood he ever plays in the NBA again). For his sake I hope I'm wrong. Tough way to end a career.

    maybe just 1 of the 2, but no way Atl will do both for the craps we're offering, you dreaming.

    I was honestly thinking about this. Sign him for a vet minimum and see what happens. Like Hartenstein but he is not ready.

    I like him too. He is playing for Indiana. His contract is an expiring 4.49 M.

    Wouldn't mind Tyler Davis as our second 2 way guy (assuming House is signed to a regular contract)

    A vet like Robin Lopez would be a big grab (and yea, keeping him from GSW is another plus). I'd give up Knight in a heartbeat. Reed would be OK, but prefer RoLo.

    Robin Lopez is best case scenario. He recently got into a scuffle with Kris Dunn, maybe they're ready to move him sooner rather than later.

    I'm gonna be really pissed off if Morey doesn't get someone good soon.

    Dedmon and Bazemore both out of the lineup tonight.

    Check that. They’ve been out before tonight.

    If we could deal Knight, Chriss and picks to ATL for Desmond and Bazemore I would definitely pull the trigger. I like Dedmond’s game, he reminds me of Stephen Jackson. Bazemore would also fit in well being a 3 and D guy.
