    Deng is looking to get that last pay day.

    In case you guys don't remember Deng rejected a 3 year, 30 million dollar offer from Chicago. He's looking for 12-13 probably.

    On Chicago Deng was 19 point guy last season

    In Cleveland Deng was a 14 point guy, shooting terrible

    Deng want 12- 14 per year, dude is not worth it, I would rather have Lin and asik

    A Lakers fan is exactly what Bill Simmons would pretend to be on forums.

    Two possibilities either Cyberx is copying Amick tweets or Amick is posting Cyberx info. No way they both release this info within 10 minutes of each other as coincidence. Only other option is Morey asked both to leak the info to put pressure on Bosh.

    I was referring to Deng being much cheaper to get than Bosh. The number I was referring to was Deng's number. Sorry for the confusion.

    There is a LOT of mileage on Deng.

    He's a good all round player still but not an upgrade on Parsons at this point I don't believe.

    If we have to S&T Parsons to get a bigger piece, I could see Deng coming in but I think that is unlikely.

    He only called Deng's rep 'cause of my tweet to him yesterday ;)

    (jk, but seriously, it wouldn't be a bad backup plan if we don't get Bosh)

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p><a href="https://twitter.com/dmorey">@dmorey</a> Only cuz u said GM'S get ideas frm boards. CB4 perfect! If not would CP25 n deal get Love?

    I am fine with Deng. What is funny is the Mavs were deciding who to target first, Deng or Parsons. It would be funny to nab Deng and keep Parsons with the Mavs getting diddly.

    Sounds right, and heavily rumored of course. Definitely want someone that can play alongside Dwight in big lineups and also play backup 5. Hill is sort of the perfect fit if they can get him.

    I can't wait for the day for people to just shut up and accept all the info they are getting and to be happy with it.

    People keep fishing and fishing...

    Just give up already and take it.

    Where is the evidence behind a sign and trade for Love actually being looked into by Morey?
