    Yea...we should have wasted that money on Bazemore or Deng. Come on people nearly every contract outside of superstar players signed last year is viewed as a negative.

    We were a much better team last year than most thought we would be, and that was without a stellar statistical year from Anderson. Would I like to upgrade? Yes. But I think we have pretty much seen the floor. If we have to go into this season with Anderson, I think we see a better player.

    he's definite not trash, but he's inconsistent and a defensive liability ...and historically injury prone. But obviously he's got length and can drain the 3 and stretch the floor, so it's not like having him on our roster doesn't improve our team, it does. But having him on our team for $20 mil is clearly a net negative relative to many alternatives (not all alternatives though). keeping him is not the end of the world; it just limits us.

    Do you guys prefer Ibaka or Milsap? Or either one is fine.

    Rockets shouldn't be losing anyone to a Minnesota.

    That place is junk, and the weather is extra terrible.

    Go get this damn guy and wrap up on Nene.

    Then find a way to get JJ Reddick and lets give the Warriors a nice scaring next year.

    Looks like we're not even trying for Millsap.

    @wojespn: Sources: Suns out on Millsap pursuit, turning to use cap space to absorb $ dumps paired w/ assets. Open to moving vets, going all-in young.

    I really don't understand Morey. You supposedly go all in and then just focus on wings and guards, not the best either..

    I don't think you guys get that millsap is shopping for a ton of money. Everyone here thinks this guy wants to take a pay cut to wkn. Dude has been clear for a few years he wanted to get a max
