    And is there a limit to trades, or not? I'm not clear on that...

    My two cents is there should not be...why limit ourselves a big reason it's so fun is because of the trading.

    Depends on who's available, and I wouldn't do that for free.

    I'd have to get some heavy pick considerations--moving up in the 1st round is a big deal.

    No, but I'm sure it'll be the luxury tax line of around 70.3 mil.

    It matters to me when deciding whether or not to take a player that has a salary of over 24 million.

    I'll plan on the luxury tax as the cap, though.

    This salary cap is gonna be interesting. Should be interesting to see where Joe Johnson goes.

    I have a feeling him, agent zero, and Rashard Lewis won't be suiting up for anyone's team in this draft.

    Johnson will definitely get drafted. If he falls to the 5th or 6th round I would take him in a heartbeat.

    Trade me Dwight Ricky.

    I'll put Dwight on the block after the 3rd round. I feel like I shouldn't have traded for the #1 pick, costing myself my 3rd rounder, if Rocketsred wasn't gonna pick him. Oh well, I got semi-efrylled, but that's the price you gotta pay for the best big man in the game.
