    it's not "what about x player," it's about no one wants to even have a sit down with the Rockets. Horford confirmed, but we can't secure one with Ryan Anderson yet. While Dallas is a top 2 choice for Whiteside, Conley and Batum.

    Ray Lewis with a basketball was the better option. :)

    WTF? Mavs are getting all of these meetings. Is Cuban offering drugs or some crap?

    Rick Carlisle and Cuban garner a lot of respect cause ones a very good coach and the other is an enthusiastic billionaire who will pay you loads of money.

    I think Batum stays in Charlotte. He seems to have enjoyed himself there.

    He wouldn't be the worst signing, but I'm not sure he is a max guy.

    And they have the 4th largest amount of money available. Everyone knows they have a shot at the max after watching a desperate Cuban max out Parsons.

    I'd rather have him than Ryan Anderson the softy. He could play that Shawn Marion role.

    I like Batum, but does Batum like us? and it would require us moving Ariza.

    Seriously? Sure we have. It maybe easier to get Marvin Williams.
