    Chandler. No contest.

    If the choices are Chandler/Bogut/Barnes, my order would be:

    1) Chandler
    2)
    3)

    So if Morey turns out not even interested in Bogut,

    he will be your least favorite GM in the league then?

    They're also losing basically most of their big contracts as the season ends, Amir, Jerebko and Zeller are going to be free agents and if they'll have to make a trade for Butler/PG they'll need to trade some core pieces unless they keep cap space

    I hate how Morey sets his sights on someone and has to have him no matter what... even a decade later.

    Kevin Martin
    Dwight
    now Bogut? $@%# Bogut!

    Edit: It's like the crush you had a long time ago but you were turned down... so now you still want that person so that you feel better about yourself. #highschool

    Wonder if BOTH open roster spots go to veterans who can help in spot minutes or at least provide some playoff tested insurance.

    Curious if there's an off the radar developmental player they want to bring in with one of them. Morey has always like to churn the bottom of the roster.

    I really hope we don't bring in any ex-warriors (Bogut or Barnes). It would be so hard to root for those guys.

    I don't think you can grade the Rockets yet til they scoop up another player or two who got bought out or waived. As for Dallas, they're dooming themselves to mediocrity with all of these moves.

    One team is fading.

    One team is tanking.

    One team is preparing for a deep playoff run.

    No, and why would he be? I'm basing Morey's interest in the guy on his previous interest in him and recent Tweets I've seen in the last half hour indicating his interest. But if he doesn't want Bogut, no harm, no foul. There will be other veterans on the buyout market worth targeting.

    Mmmm... I think New Orleans might have something to say about that list.

    I'd give it another 20 minutes or so to be safe

    Wow. Props to Bev for improving his conditioning and his 3PT% so much that he's a core guy now.

    Wow Danny Ainge, you have to cash in those assets and not sit on it. IT won't be a superstar for long.

    The things you read are the fascination of others, GM is NOT allowed to talk about other players whose under contracts.
