    Every minimum contract is still actually like 8-10 Million out of tortillas pocket. It better be something thats worth it

    lol Im not saying if hed do it or not. Im saying you cant just throw around minimums for the hell of it. These people get paid. Its not 2-3 million. Its more like over 8 from his pocket. Makes your decisions matter more.

    Bobby Marks of ESPN said that this is the first year he has heard that teams are presenting deals with a time deadline. Take this deal within this time frame or we will move on to the next. Maybe PHX did that to Ariza.

    Nick Young is brutal on defense and outside of being a good shooter is nothing special on offense. Another "for the minimum I guess" guys.

    Interesting.
    Yeah that would make sense. Maybe because teams weren't interested to wait for LeDiva to make his decision.

    Man. Every time I see Jamal Crawford's name I think "The NBA ref (Joey)? Let's see were this joke goes ..." and there is no punch line. So disappointing. I need to re-calibrate my Crawfords.

    That's surprising. I thought it would be more common. Especially if you need deal A to happen before deal B can happen.

    Oh you’re about to get even more grumpy....S&T hard caps the receiving team. We wouldn’t have been hard capped. Morey let Ariza walk because he didn’t want to commit that kind of money to Ariza which is why everyone’s trying to figure out what’s his plan. He normally wouldn’t have done something like that without a plan.

    Anyway S&T to receive a player, using the full MLE and some other moves can trigger the hard cap which is the tax apron of $129m this season.

    D@mn! I was hoping he could a sneaky get.

    Also sucks b/c Philly is loading up on players I like (Holmes, Shake Milton)... I was also hoping they would let Amir find a new home.

    I'm sure they'll go to other teams.
