    Lol, you need to call DMo and get him on the court. Unfortunately he doesn't do anything sitting on the couch with no contract.

    Also Anderson (and I'm not a fan of him much either vs DMo, especially with what they paid him) has more than 50 or so games of contributions to an NBA team. And yesterday's pre-season game doesn't mean anything. Going off of that Wiltjer is the GOAT from 3 ;)

    Regardless though, DMo would be nice for QO and if he proves the nba wrong and is better than current players would be nice vs overpaying for Anderson. Unfortunately if he comes in and makes Anderson useless... Then good luck unloading his contract.

    Well this is what happens when you flip flip flip, players don't necessarily want to play or trust you.

    Rumor: Minnesota and Dmo closing in on a 3/37m Offer sheet. Stay tuned, Yull C.

    Is that a joke? Do they have that much cap room?

    So what's the deal with D-Mo? Preseason has started, when is the deadline for him to accept the QO?

    I really like Wiltjer. Much more than Harrell.

    Technically depending how the contract was setup they could... Showing like 10 million but not sure if that takes into account garnett retiring. They also have a lot next year falls to like 40 million free this summer. I'd see the 76ers doing it, I mean if we're just going to throw stuff out there. But maybe Mr DMo knows something.

    I'd match him at 3/37. There's enough upside to justify it.

    He was our 2nd best player in 14-15 with Dwight out and that money is starter/6th man money under the new cap. You're always going to do better by matching that kind of deal rather than letting them walk for nothing.

    Only way i'd match that offer is if the second and third years aren't fully guaranteed.

    Dom failed a physical that resulted in a failed trade. Those guys don't get full 3 year deals.

    I would think not, but maybe they could create it?

    Depends on whose story you believe. D Mo's version is that he passed the physical but then they got cold feet.

    we've heard the same things over and over about what he did seasons ago for a stretch of the year. That in no way demands anyone to pay someone like him with all the red flags a long term contract at 10mil +. All the dmo only fans need to wake up and take the situation for what it really is and be realistic. It shouldn't take this long in the first place

    The Wolves have enough room especially with Pekovic out.

    The third year has to be a team option, because I would think they would want to max out Wiggins

    HOUSTON
    - B.J. Armstrong, the agent for restricted free agent forward Donatas Motiejunas, said the lines of communication with the Rockets remain open while he also talks with other teams.

    The Rockets' qualifying offer of $4.4 million is no longer on the table because it has expired.

    Since Motiejunas is a restricted free agent, he can accept an offer from another team.

    However, the Rockets retain the right to match any offer he gets and keep him.

    "We understand where they are at and what they'd like to do," Armstrong told FOX 26 Sports. "At this time neither side is willing to accept what each is discussing. We will continue to negotiate with the Rockets and other teams.

    "We're going to continue to work this out and move forward."

    Rockets general manager Daryl Morey has yet to comment on his talks with Armstrong.

    Head Coach Mike D'Antoni said Sunday he would like Motiejunas back with the Rockets sooner rather than later.

    "It's a tough situation," D'Antoni said. "They've got to take care of business on both sides and hopefully we can get him in here, sooner the better obviously for us, but he has to do what he does. He's not here obviously. We can play around that.

    "When they can agree and get the business part over with, we'll integrate him in pretty quick."
