    LMA will never have to play 5 if he comes here. Capela has shown tremendous growth in the past year. No reason why he can't future his development for the next couple of years.

    I'm convinced that Brewer is gone. We simply can't give him the long term deal he wants

    Spurs run this league. Might not win every year, but they run it.

    Lebron - about 20 mil
    Love - about 20 mil
    Irving - 14.7
    Mozgov - 4.9
    Thompson - about 16 mil
    Shumpert - 10 mil


    THAT's $85.6 million!! Cap is at most $69 million...am I missing something?

    You guys need to abandon the mindset that we were a WCF team last year, so we only need a few tweaks and we are set. Last year was an OUTLIER. A lot of improbable things went our way. That is NOT the norm. This team needs major upgrades to sustain a high level of excellence. The pursuit of LMA and Love are the correct courses of action.

    I had a thought earlier at work while talking to my neither. It's conceivable that lma has always wanted too come to Houston but meet with other teams with max space. He could ' COULD ' be using SA as leverage. Basically SnT me to Houston or I walk to SA.

    He would be fine with both while also having a preference in us. And while difficult it is feasible to acquire lma without losing ariza.

    AnywAys just a thought I had.

    You need to stop spamming all threads with this. No matter what the topic you post the same thing. It is offtopic and against the rules.

    Quicken Loans must be making a helluva lot of money. Can't wait to see the luxury tax bill thats hitting them next year.

    We need to take care of home first, then grab Collison.That would make me happy.

    If I'm Cleveland, Tristan Thompson asks for 80mil and I'm aggressively telling him to get the **** out of office!!

    Sign-and-trade. Package him up and sign-and-trade him as part of a package for a point guard or expiring contract.
