    Stukey and Barbosa were available at vet min. Mo, Collison makes less than Papa and Terry and were available at a cheap price. Tell me how that was "overspending".

    Hate to break it to you but this is just a kind of spiritual masturbating. Even Harden has acknowledged he needs more help at PG. So come on, please stop posting stupid BS like this.

    So is your grammar.

    Take it easy, Chicken Little.

    You do know that Morey can't just trade for / sign whomever he wants? There is this thing called the Collective Bargaining Agreement, not to mention the salary cap, luxury tax....

    And I told you Papa was given his contract only to one day facilitate a trade, NOT because he was deemed worthy of the money. But I guess you're no more a reader than you are a thinker.

    It's July 6th. JULY 6th.

    (sigh) Never mind. Like arguing with a drunk.

    We can't continue to feed the troll if the troll doesn't post facts. We haven't used the MLE in anyone, and there's no free agent worth using it on. You're overrating stuckey to try and make your point that we need a point guard. The rockets are fine. Anyone in a panic just isn't being rational.

    I wasn't referring to LeBron. I was talking about guys like Thompson and Shumpert. Can't blame those two for wanting huge contracts since they've never gotten one before.

    cyberx has confirmed that Morey is working on "nothing new." This is officially time to panic.

    To me it's not about taking shots away from him but give him adequate rest. You can also have Harden moving without the ball more if you have a legit PG out there. We've seen that iso ball drain all the energy out of Harden.

    Did they think they had a great shot with LMA? Seems to me LMA didn't want to do the 3rd fiddle role.

    Well now that is not entirely good news. Down in the dumps because we didn't land LMA? Or because Llull bent us over? If LMA I can't believe they put too much of that cart before the horse. If it is due to time/resource wasting on Llull that I can understand.

    Well, last year we were actually below cap and were nowhere near the luxury threshold. We chose to operate over cap and has a full MLE which could have gotten us Mo Williams or Darren Collison. Guys like Barbosa and Stuckey were also available at vet min. Mo Williams and Isaiah Thomas were available at the deadline and were traded at cheap prices. So all the targets I listed out were feasible and you sound like an idiot who knows nothing about CBA.

    The MLE was very valuable and our bench was really weak last year. So it should've been used for bolstering our thin bench, not a trade filter. Besides, guys like Collison has much higher trade value than Papa.

    Perhaps so nothing leaks whatsoever from anyone to their plans of matching what offer for KJ. Since he's about to get many offersheets.

    Good moves by the lakers cyber. Lou can be moved easily with such a contract and perhaps with Hibber's bird rights in hand he can be resigned next season.
    Now only to find someone to take on Swaggy.:p
