    Agree.

    Probably my lone MLE free agent left and he gets a million more. I was secretly hoping to sign him and then reluctantly moving Gordon for (a) piece(s).

    True; but 'good $ for a mid-level kinda guy'.

    Not sure if these moves by Chicago are for a Melo trade. Seeing other rumblings they may be preparing an offer sheet for Jabari Parker.

    I had no idea who David Nwaba was until today. But after watching some footage and digging into his stats a little, I'm very intrigued.

    25 year old 6'4" guard who plays with a lot of energy and athleticism, pushes the ball aggressively and scores through contact, and is active on defense. Didn't come into the league with any range at all, but shot .464 from three (13 of 28) in 21 games as a starter last season. He also averaged 10.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in those games. Kind of feels like a poor man's Wade.

    Lauri Markkanen, Bobby Portis at Forward?

    Robin Lopez, Wendell Carter Jr., Cristiano Felicio, Omer Asik at Center?

    (Seeing suggestions on twitter they play Lauri or Jabari at the 3 or Jabari as Sixth Man?)

    Bobby Marks: Miami now jumps into the luxury tax after the Wayne Ellington signing. The Heat now have a team salary of $127M and over the tax by $3.2M. The current tax bill for Miami is $4.9M and the Heat will have until the end of the regular season to get under the threshold. Ellington was signed to a one-year contract and can now veto any trade based on the one-year bird restriction. The Heat now have 12 guaranteed contracts and the $5.3M tax midlevel exception remaining.

    It would be SMART if the Bulls sign a certain RFA from Boston

    Melo won’t even travel to chicago. Rumor was he was getting bought out anyway, right?

    He would have made Gordon easier to move. For sure.

    OK, serious question: if he's that good, or any good at all, why did da Bulls da-lete him from their roster (ok, for trade purposes? If so, no better alternatives than someone with a pulse who can play?). Yes, I know da Bulls FO history of being da duh Bulls, but still???

    We dont need Nwaba. There are no minutes to be had with the sudden rise of Melton

    Paul
    Harden
    Gordon
    Green
    Melton
    MCW
    Ennis
    Melo(presuming hes here)

    There are no minutes at the 1-3

    If anything we probably need a 4 unless anderson is staying this year with a roll. We might try and go cheaper there with Hartenstein
