    Can we at least let him play and see if he can help us. I’m tired of our system.

    If thats the case they need to go get Kenneth Faried. He is on a expiring contract. And he would bring energy and rebounding to this team. Brooklyn is not winning right now. It would work. Then go pickup Nick Young. I don't know why the rox aren't looking at swaggy p.

    Rockets are offering 2nd round picks for the low low price of Knight's remaining 30 million contract. I wonder why no one is biting?

    He is likely to get injured in 3 months, then he would not be tradable, and Tilman would have to pay luxury tax for Knight.
    Morey is smart enough to deal him now.

    It's very possible that Tony is still a better player than Jabari lol...

    And i actually wouldn't mind getting Tony (if cheap of course)

    Can't be true . Expiring contracts do us no good . We will be capped next offseason anyways .

    If it true , Tillman is in penny pinching mode and we can kiss anything but mediocrity goodbye for the next 3-5 years

    Henson is injured. Bucks were hoping he could make it back by the playoffs.

    Milwaukee is sending Dellavedova, John Henson and a first-round and future second-round pick to Cavs for George Hill, league source tells ESPN.

    We aren't going to staple first round picks to Knight's contract in order to flush him. Unless you put massive protections on it.

    That’s messed up. Don’t do Nene like that.

    And for the other two, that’s a bit morbid, dude.

    Tony’s a lot better than our other PG options, and we know he’s clutch in the playoffs (if we can make the playoffs, that is)

    It seems that Dan Gilbert knows about Tilman cost control system. Dan is taking advantage of Tilman.
