Jamal Crawford has no plans to play in Atlanta if/when this thing gets finalized, I'm told. A buyout or a trade is considered necessary. From Sam Amick.
Orlando is intriguing because they are desperate for shooters, other than the 3 you keep citing any chance that Gordon or Hezonja are available as well? Not a fan of Elfrid or Abel as you like to call him.
Elfrid can't shoot. Last I saw him play he was a black Bricky Rubio with a comb he forgot to remove from his hair.
Gordon, Crawford along with Tucker and Nene off the bench? lets not forget Troy Williams will be better this season because of having played under MDA

I Think washed Jason is Jason Smith, Cod loves him and has wanted him here for a long time. Also for the numbers section i'm pretty sure it's 7 - Anthony 0 - Kevin Love 6 - (DAJ or JJ) 20 - Hayward 3 - Wade 12 - LMA Everything else you got looks right.
Please tell me one of those contracts is from Morey. I love this guy's game. @Codman ? I hope you're well.
I wonder what opportunities will present themselves when Gordon Hayward officially decides. What will Utah, Boston and Miami do that present moves to Morey?
Grizzles lost ZBo, they'd be fools to not match Green. If they trade him they likely do it for a good PF in return, and I'm not sure they'd be interested in Anderson.
Memphis has great fans and for me it's unacceptable for the league to take away a team from their fans. If they suck, they suck. Lots of ppl support sucking teams.
On the other hand, would Anderson+Gasol be hands down the best shooting frontcourt in the NBA? I know this board hates to give Anderson any respect but the dude can stroke it for sure.
Damn straight! I suffered for years supporting the Oilers, the Colt 45's/Astros, and the Rockets, and wouldn't trade the experiences for anything, except a winning record. Good times, win or lose. I'm still ticked off that the Jazz ended up in Utah. An abomination!
You're right but the NBA is going to scare cities to death with Seattle, both what happened to them and where their team will be moving. What do the Thunder and Grizzlies look like after their stars are gone? The NBA got what they wanted with the Bucks owners and the stadium and money from the Kings ownership groups. I remember from back in the lockout where they were floating the NO Hornets and talking about contraction for a couple of franchises. It didn't have to be a serious discussion to know that the league was going to get serious about their money and valuations.
