    Interestingly taking back Duhon + Big Baby + Richardson leaves us more than $20M under the likely cap next season.

    Parsons is on his way out? Orlando is his home town right. City would embrace him!

    if we get howard, big baby, lee, and sign CPflop next off season.. and hire the dream to be a part time scout while he starts his "school for players who can't post up good but want to learn to and do other stuff" ..we will truly have SUPER FRIENDS!

    could Scola be the first amnestied player to get a bid for his entire salary?

    Haha no. Won't be me! I'm about to head out and who knows what happens overnight. I'm sure I'll have some catching up to do in the morning. Clutchfans never sleeps. :p

    That's if they're not traded between now and trade. Morey could package a rookie with a combo of them for an expiring at the trade deadline

    I didn't realize Big Baby was kind of decent last season. Of course, he's another 6'9" forward so who knows how much PT he'd get

    Also a good point. But regardless that deal should leave us room for CP3 in the offseason as long as the Bulls match Asik.

    At first I didn't get it, but I think your right - Rocket's lost a good player, but it doens't look like they are going to lose money too.

    I don't know if anybody who has the cap room to bid that much wants him.

    I guess. I feel sorry for Scola if that's where he lands.

    I saw Big Baby not long ago. I was at a Tampa Bay Rays game and while I was waiting for my wife to come out of the bathroom he walked by going in to the men's room. I gave him a fist bump.
