    Which explains the embarrassment of riches featured last year - Pablo and Terry.

    Indeed. You can't have one team with a 99% chance of getting a player and another team with a 75% chance. Doc doesn't understand probability.

    I think he's talking about gambling odds, but it's still pretty nonsensical.

    That set of tweets by doc rocket is embarrassing. Even basketballholicjopat would blush at saying that

    There were other forces at work then. Right now, we own all of our future 1st round picks, NYKs 2016 2nd, and Papa/Prig NG deals. We have the assets to get a trade done.

    I could be overreacting, but it seems to me that there's a decent chance of going into this season with an appreciably worse team than we had in May -- due mostly to factors beyond our control.

    David Aldridge
    @daldridgetnt
    5s
    Wished I was wrong, but wasn't: Paul Pierce agrees to three-year deal with Clippers, per sources.

    10M for 3years? WTF

    You're not overreacting. It's a very real thing that, at this point, might even be likely. I never wanted a mitigated "3rd Star". This past season showed 2 + great depth is the way to go. Look at the Warriors.

    Pierce is clutch as hell. But 3 years at his age? Does he have much left in the tank?

    Wtf, those Doc Roc tweets...

    Im over here thinking wow, he's hearing Rockets are clear leaders to get Aldridge at 80%

    "No I think the Spurs are 99% and they will get him, where still 75 - 85% tho"

    What a ****ing tease!!

    clippers only need him in the playoffs.

    either way, without deandre jordan they will be taking a step back.

    Damn... Well the Clippers just got a steal.

    Like I said all along, I find it so difficult to believe DJ can walk away from the Clips and not mend the fences. Nobody is better for him and his style of play that makes him special like CP3.
