    If that’s the case then nothing we can realistically do this year will move the needle in your eyes.

    Might as well shut everyone down and try and tank.

    I don’t get this kind of thinking. We have harden I’ve seen him beat the warriors at full without cp3 Gordon and hypothetically DJ and Wes.

    Obviously the dubs are the dubs the odds are not good but man you gotta try anything to get over the top.

    The dubs have ruined the nba but you got to atleast try. If not what’s the point in even watching the games or coming to clutch fans to even talk about the rockets?

    If the Davis talks go nowhere, the Lakers have enough expiring deals to get DeAndre Jordan. The Nets have more than 24.5 million between Carroll and Dudley that they could move. Not to mention Ed Davis makes nearly 4.5 million and is an expiring contract.

    The Kings are surely someone to keep an eye on, but more for Matthews imo, at center they have already Cauley, Bagley, Giles...unless they move one of them i don't even see the playing time there. I guess they could always bench them though.

    I can enjoy the team and hope for a deep playoff run without worrying about beating the Warriors. It is what it is.

    Why would the nets want Jordan? The have the Allen who’s developing

    Same with the lakers they have 3 centers already on the roster?

    I don’t understand why those teams would do that.

    If we can get jordan that would be great. Lets get blake griffin and make Doc Rivers an assistant coach as well.

    I don't see how we play Faried anywhere but the 5. He can't shoot at all. That's the only place he works unless you have a five that can space the floor with him.

    we can also get Mathews. We can put Ennis in G league. Faried should stay

    Deandre is a super elite defensive rebounder. He had the 3rd highest defensive rebound rate last year....EVER

    He has 3 of the top 12 seasons ever. Dear god do we need this!

    That makes no sense because they can't trade either player.

    Stopped following him on twitter as every 2nd tweet was a fap fest over LeBron. The fact that LeBron playing tonight was his other big news just proves that. Meh

    You guys are right. I live in the past. The worst is actually Faried, who ranked bottom 3 for any centers with > 2 FTA. The other guys are fine.

    Clearly people don't realize how badly DJ has declined in the last year or two. This would be awesome news if this were 2013 DJ(or even 2013 Faried) but in this day and age I would take any useful wing players over aging players who's declining skill set is too limited to keep them on the floor against the Warriors except in emergency situations. If we are in a position where we have to rely on Faried or DJ minutes in the playoffs, we are in trouble.

    ...wake me up when we finally get some 3 and D guys who can stay on the floor in a playoff series.
