    Deja vu from when Kubiak picked up all the Denver castoffs.

    I'm disappointed about losing out on Anderson. Tim O just isn't needed when you have Greg Smith and Omer Asik, but we added players to this team that are not Anderson level.

    Not surprising. Clearly the Rockets didn't think that Anderson and Ohlbrecht were garbage, so makes sense that Hinkie would swoop in off waivers for assets on the cheap, especially since they need to fill out some spots.

    Anderson and Ohlbrecht were casualties of cap clearing. Unfortunate for them, fortunate for Hinkie.

    I hope James sticks with the 76ers.

    I thought he was a good shooter, had lots of energy and was always in motion.

    Wish him lots of luck! :)

    Never really saw what Tim could do but I hope he gets a spot too!

    I'm glad I'm not a Philly fan. If this doesn't work, Hinkie is going to get ran out of town.

    Yeah I might have their contract terms wrong, but arent their contracts non-guaranteed up until first couple months next season? If thats the case theres hardly any risk in claiming them, and if they suck in training camp and preseason they can be cut minimal to no loss

    Philly poached a top exec.

    Wait till 2016-2017 and you'll see what I mean. 3 top picks in the next two drafts + Nerlens Noel.

    Harris looks like he's got to itch his ass something bad but can't due to the camera's, or he's trying to squeak out an ass air bubble. Maybe now he'll think about issuing wet wipes for the clean.

    Someone should photoshop Hinkie's face onto that pic of DM sitting courtside looking back up the stands.
