    Teams are playing pay-it-forward with their bad contracts. This could go on and on. Only question is, who will be the very last sucker?

    honestly i know you can't pay a guy $20 mil to come off the bench, but i think that if Anderson was coming off the bench to spell The Brow and Boogie, it would actually be a great fit for them. Having that stretch 4 to go along with those two guys would give them arguably the best front court in the league.

    No joke, I didn't sleep well at all on Monday night because Everything Melo was racing through my head. I was so exhausted after that bad night that last night I slept through a screaming baby, a frustrated wife, and barking dogs in the morning.

    This Melo **** just needs to happen. My neck hurts from looking down at my phone to refresh the GARM.

    That's a good point. You can really change gears with Ryno in the rotation if you're the Pelicans. Also, if it's not working out with Boogie, you can move him and your starting PF is already on the roster.

    Honestly so surprised his name hasn't even come up in rumors. It's like Morey erased all memories of Eric Gordon from other GM's minds.

    I guess I wouldn't put it past him.

    WTF is Westbrook wearing? Didn't he know he wouldn't be playing tonight?

    I'm pretty sure he's still well-liked in The Big Easy. It's really just the $20 mil. It doesn't surprise me that NO would consider getting in on the deal; especially if they could acquire a pick or an asset for taking Anderson on.

    I didn't realize stat padder extraordinaire Russell Westbrick was on the Warriors.

    Giving out awards to fukn losers. He didn't win shiiit and that fake ass MVP doesn't count.....made possible by his teammates so obviously deferring to him.

    I thought when he started thanking his teammates that he might include "for the extra rebounds".

    Getting Asik off the books might have real value for them. Who knows what Morey is hearing out there. It's all interesting to me.

    My wife has no clue why I spend hours/day on CF. Shoot, she actually asked me earlier why I check Twitter for breaking news every 5 minutes. She must not know what potato head did to us a week ago.
