    This has Jodie Meeks and Aron Baynes the same type of signing written all over.

    The only thing that I can image is that the sucker being Morey.

    It's going to take some time for me to get use to this new cap. Wow.

    That's the Chandler Parson's deal on the '15-'16 cap. I ain't too concerned with that.

    $20 million for a bench player? They need to raise the cap at my work place as well.

    That's not the issue, the issue is you spend that on Bazemore.

    The cap is rising people sooner or later many of you will have to come to terms with that. I'd love to have Baze

    he's 6'5..do we really want a 6'5 sf in the West? I mean, if the plan is to play harden at pg and bazemore at sg..ok.

    He'd start at SF and Ariza and/or Brewer would be jettisoned.
