    I'd take the Lee/Allen combo over Johnson.

    Since when are the Grizzlies the reigning Southwest Division Champions? ESPN is dreadful sometimes.

    "to the reigning Southwest Division champions"

    Yea that's wrong. Marc Stein and ESPN shouldn't be making those types of errors.

    Why not just resign Ellis for half that price?

    Johnson is still a solid SG, his contract is just untradeable . Id love him here coming off the bench as a 6th man, but not at 24 million

    I like jj. In contrast to dwill he is still productive and a workhorse. The nets should just let him expire than get riddled with longer contracts. But they will max brolo and pay tons of money to thad young so its certain they have no olan or direction atm.

    I think the word is Monte Ellis is really moody and a bit of a drag on the team. Also, his best friend on the team was recently ousted Rajon Rondo. But I agree in general - $24mil is a lot of money to take on - even for Cuban.

    If Dallas were the SW division champs, and he wrote Memphis or God forbid Houston, Cuban would sue him IMO.

    It's not an NBA off-season or mid-season without Joe Johnson trade rumors.
