    This indicates Lou is gone. I think we'll keep Gordon because he has a really good contract and above all he is a very good player. This guy will probably endup as the backup the backup SF.

    Low IQ player. I think he actually started trying to play D and take things more seriously but it's just a contract year thing. As soon as he gets the money his old habits will return. He's looking for one more nice contract and it shouldn't be here.

    Thanx Cyber for the info! I hope you are doing fine and have a nice summer!

    It was strange that he opted out with not so much money floating around. Now we know, he had knowledge of Rockets interest to do that.

    A cheap Young wouldn't be that bad.

    This is why I have an F5 key! Not no trade. Not one trade... trades.

    I don't see it. If the "trades" happen, we aren't going to have any money to sign someone like Nick Young unless he is planning to play for the minimum for us.

    or maybe that indicates that Morey has already organised enough trades to clear enough space for that and just waits for July to execute them.

    I'm saying that if we are making these trades for max space, we aren't going to have money for Nick Young. I hope we aren't making trades to clear space FOR Nick Young.

    haha I meant that maybe the trades will free enough capspace for a max + Young's salary.
    For example if we have to trade almost everyone on the roster.

    Would it still be disappointing if it meant we were able to get rid of Ryan Anderson's contract?

    Gordon is one of the pieces Indy wants.

    Interest in Nick Young and other shooters/finishers is a given based on trades we are trying to make.
