    the only reason he's leaving GS is to get more money...that deal would never get him to Houston

    I doubt we will get BG now that we have CP.

    This is what I posted in the Random Trade thread. Big fan of James Johnson (was clutch on my FF basketball team last year):

    CP3 and D'Antoni got him locked down already. :)

    We could add a 4th year onto the deal as well for leverage.

    Don't get your hopes up Knote, Sixers, Jazz are going to offer him double that money, and probably a starting spot, we have no chance to get him

    Really? 64 million over 4 years? He is 34 next season.

    Yeah, reports were talking about teams willing to sign him for 15/18x year, with the Warriors offering something like 10/12x if i remember well. Maybe those numbers will turn out to be wrong but i don't see him leaving the Warriors for a MLE or a little bit more...you'll have to overpay to make him leave, and we're not one of those teams who are going to do that imo.

    I meant his position. Not that his game is like Ariza. My bad.

    I think those issues are overblown. Everything is CP3's fault in LA now that he is gone.

    Those reports were out LONG before Paul left. The reports heading into the offseason were that the Clips were breaking up because Paul/Griffin didn't want to play together anymore. Most writers thought the Clippers would keep Paul.

    This is supposedly one of the big reasons he left to begin with. If it's untrue, having BG would be nice.

    Could partially explain rebounds, but blocks?

    Looking like it might be JJ Reddick.

    For vet min?
    We have the MLE at $8 mil and the BAE at $3 mil.

    I don't see either willing to take vet min. so at best one of them takes Cleveland's $5 mil MLE. And we get the other.
    Best case scenario Melo takes MLE and Wade takes BAE.
