    Work into the night to work a deal for LeBron back to Cleveland then they will STFU.

    The way trade is being reconfigured its becoming pretty clear that Stern wants the concerns brought up in Dan Gilbert's much publicized e-mail addressed. And he has the nerve to say he blocked the trade independently from any of the team owners.

    Dude, come on seriously. We are giving up WAY too much just to get Gasol.

    Really not surprising that this deal is hot again. NBA took massive hit yesterday. *Only* way to save face is get it reworked & approved.

    I really don't understand how we can move the same parts and the package be "younger," like Stern said was required. Everyone seems pretty optimistic so far, though. I bet this deal gets done and hopefully Nene waits.

    Let's just hope Nene hasn't made up his mind yet.

    Because if he did, we are ****ed!

    Damn... That really blows. I was praying for Lee & Budinger outgoing, as opposed to Martin. Would have been very Morey-esque.

    This puts a lot of pressure on Morey to go out and get Nene, and make more deals down the line.

    Keeping one if the two defeats the purpose of gaining cap space for another big signing.

    Martin and scola have to go.

    As long as everything else goes according to plan and we get Nene/M Gasol. I'm extremely pumped about this deal

    Alright.
    Lowry/flynn
    Lee/taylor
    Bud/morris/twill
    Nene/patterson
    Gasol/hill/thabeet

    I'm excited. If this gets turned around again, I'll be done.

    NBA wants Hornets to get younger talent, picks. One source says, "Still working through it all," and there could be resolution on Saturday.

    man, this would be AWESOME. top 3 seed in the west with crippling hornets and spurs and mavs.

    kevin martin would be top 10 scorer in league and put the big men into big foul trouble

    *drooools
