    Drummond's contract is bonkers.

    Tyson Chandler brings the same qualities (elite rebounding, overrated defense) to the table at a fraction of the price.

    Any GM trading for RJ should be fired on the spot. He is loaded with negatives.

    Read an article recently that made a good point about Capela...its about to be his 4th year...if the man can't play 30+ minutes every game then we should trade him. Might not be a bad idea to take a hard look at Capela's legitimate long term value with Andre now on the market.

    His first year was mostly in the D-league. I think his trade value will not yield us a player like Paul George along with picks/other players. Retain Capela but don't give him an extension. Andre will be an albatross for us, and Reggie too.

    Remember the rumor of the past deadline about Detroit talking with Orlando about a Jackson/Augustine deal? I mean, there were probably other parts involved but i think really nothing very interesting, it's like Stan was basically ok in dumping Jackson contract and the Magic well, they were probably desperate to make some sort of upgrade...but yeah, i wouldn't even be shocked if Orlando said no.

    I'm not trying to tell you how to live your life but you should respect your mothers wishes. My sources tell me that mama hollic lets you have your last round of pizza rolls around 8:30 and its lights out by 9:30 and here you are up at 4am. Just please be more respectful

    drummond isn't worth the max.

    you can't win without go-to scorers. if you spend your max on a facilitator and a no-offense defensive anchor who can't even stay on the floor late in the game because of hacking, you will never get out of the second round. look at the clippers with paul and DAJ. that's us with harden and drummond.

    its time to start thinking of harden as a facilitator. he's not proven to be a go-to scorer in the playoffs. we need 2 max scorers to let him be the 3rd option if we want to contend with the warriors, cavs, spurs.

    reggie jackson is a ball dominant, inefficient shooter. he's not an upgrade over bev, lou, or gordon and a poor fit next to harden. there is a reason both he and drummond are on the block.
