    Can Orlando throw us a curveball and use the signing as leverage to get more assets in return for a trade?

    The reported Rockets offer was crap. I guess they have reason to be weary about trading for an oft-injured center, though.

    (re: Feigin's Chron article today) We turned down a Bogut deal because we didn't want to give up Lee and Martin

    He's their meal ticket, has taken them to finals once, and is their best shot at getting there again. Hell we all know if Yao wanted to come back, he'd have Les and Morey on a "string" as well.

    Dwight received great steaks from CEO and GM and decided to stay.

    Why does Morey only want stars?? Just get a guy that can help us now and help our future. Kaman, Okafor, Wallace, any would do fine!

    Why would Minnesota want to give up Pekovic just for Martin and Flynn? Makes no sense. The Pekovic-Love combo is a major reason they are doing well this year.

    Even though I wish he would come here, Jack is right about Howard.

    True they made to get scola in that deal... i dunno...

    But the beat writer said himself martin for pek isnt out of the question just would need a big back...and said beasley and a pick for martin wasnt enough for houston.

    Well, you don't go for the first deal, you go for the best deal. Morey put lines out across the league the last two months, and it's about to be decision time. We just have to have faith that he'll pull the trigger(s) on the best deal(s) on the table.

    I wouldn't want him to go to plan B until plan A is 100% out. That back and forth lasted until late this morning. On to plan B.

    Then I'll delete the gif after that. But the plan was perfectly in place to join D-Will this offseason. Yet he decided to opt in; thus, offsetting the simultaneous free agency status with Deron Williams.

    Now if Williams goes to Orlando, that would be enough for me to say they were in cahoots all along. This would also make me take back the slow clapping gif.
