    Awesome news. The multi-year deal seems to me like they're gonna give him a contract similar to Parsons...basically an X year deal for 1st rounder money then a team option for 1 or 2 years more. Smith is only 21 years old, its gonna take 1 or 2 years for him to show his stuff. People complaining about the Rox passing on De andre Jordan and not taking prospects in the draft? Here's De Andre 2.0, hopefully with more passion and bball IQ.

    Doesn't sound like it unfortunately. Hopefully playing in the NBA will bring it out of him, but I am not optimistic.

    No, Parsons contract is guaranteed. This is the usual unguaranteed deal/s for next season they seem to do every season.

    Yep, I am very happy with this move, this guy could develop into something special, ala DeMarcus Cousins....type.

    Doesn't mean he will, but this is the kind of chance I have been wanting the Rox to take for a while now.

    ...throwing joking elbows at Sammy D barely qualifies as tough. Sammy suffers from a rare condition known as ILS(Invisible Lat Syndrome). It affects guys who want to look bigger than they actually are, and therefore walk with there arms slightly aloft from their sides, to appear as if their lats are so large they cannot walk normally. Seriously, watch him walk around....it cracks me up.

    Cousins is a second year player, he hasn't solidified into anything yet (he's far from a finished product)

    Unless you meant his ceiling potential is as high as Cousins, highly doubt it, but we'll see.

    Don't expect much from him at all. I honestly think Adrien is the better player but Greg Smith is a nice prospect. Maybe some people can help me message @NBA2kInsider about Greg Smith and maybe he'll be somewhat decent in the virtual world. I'ma do my part and try to have him at least a decent athlete and rebounder.

    what does bringing a PF/C have to do with Flynn?¿

    what gets me is how crazy thoughtful or thoughtless you dudes get over the same news.

    We did the same thing last year and the year before that with zip This, nothing, nada happening. This is how DM is keeping everyone reeled in.

    OMG, Adrian didn get cut, he is being traded for Dh!

    I've been secretly hoping they would do this for a couple of weeks now.
