    If we somehow end up with Covington and a cheaper center we won't

    If small ball consists of

    Westbrook
    Harden
    Iguodala
    Covington
    Tucker
    -------------
    Gordon

    SIGN ME UP! :) Throw Mark Morris/Crowder/Bertans in there and I might j*zz!

    Danny Ainge tried to dump Gordon Hayward Broken leg and his Max contract onto us.

    Just a scumbag, him and Pat Riley are the worst trade partners

    Timlord ain't bad... but my eyes drifted towards DIENG! Now Gorgiu is the right CC replacement. He hates playing behind KAT and every athletic center looks better next to Harden too. eg. Capela probably won't look as good with another team.

    If we can swing a deal that includes Dieng, I'd be willing to part with CC, as good as he is.
    I don't see it with AG. That guy wouldn't fit our team due to his bad shooting. I'll give it to him, he'd be a good rim runner and perimeter defender, but not a good rim protector or shooter.

    And

    Chris Paul
    Eric Gordon
    James Harden
    Trevor Ariza
    PJ Tucker

    Was what exactly? (Winning ball games...)

    I'd love to see teams try and post up Tucker, Harden, Gordon, Covington, etc.

    Bring it on...

    Please, not to the Celtics. Stevens is really going to maximize what he does and the guy is already a top5 rebounder.

    Midget Ball Mike or Tax Savings Tilman?

    The world "desparately" screams of Tilman wanting to save money.

    OR a remote scenario is that Capela is a hot potato and the medical staff have advised the team that he has some serious underlying injury problem that will keep affecting him in the future and we want to get rid of him ASAP before his trade value never recovers.

    the rat ****s in the boston want to keep slandering him until he becomes a celtic and then they can rave about how he is the best center in the NBA and it's not close.

    his contract makes it nearly impossible since we are capped out. He makes more than Capela

    Like him too but Dieng makes too much money, cannot absorb his salary of $16M.

    "desperately"

    Sounds like people are just reading reports and trying to act like they are in the know.

    Sounds like BS. Morey and "desperate" do not go together.
