    So far Cleveland's saying no Wiggins because LeBron wants him there. What LeBron says, LeBron gets. Without Wiggins, their potential offers suck.

    Didn't Dwight already say he didn't like playing with Gasol? So why do you guys keep bringing up his name?

    I agree with you, except the Spurs also have great coaching while we have Kevin McHale. I'm not a Bosh fan and do not think he is a max player, but he is THE player we needed to overcome our liabilities elsewhere. This has turned into a grade "A" cluster**** of epic proportions.

    15M / per yr.... Is not a good contract for Parsons. Let him tie up the Mavs cap space not ours. (He is a role player)

    Bledsoe MAX & Blanche 12M/3yr are the answers
    fill in with 3&D small forwards and call it a day.

    thought some really liked Jordan Hamilton and some said he sould push Parsons for playing time after his first game or so. He later was moved to KMH doghouse never to be seen again.

    Luckily for us, Hill is off the table.

    Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA ยท 3m
    Free agent forward Jordan Hill has agreed to a two-year, $18M deal to return to the Los Angeles Lakers, agent Kevin Bradbury tells Yahoo.

    So we have to try to get a starting guard or power foward and backup center. Morey has a lot of work to do.

    Ilayasova had a bad season last year, maybe they'll let him go for DMo and a pick

    I think that Melo has it down to the Bulls or the Knicks. He isn't going anywhere else.

    Saw some discussion on Twitter that the Suns inking Thomas could be indicate more of a willingness to part with Dragic than Bledsoe. Possible or no?

    Word out of our camp was that we would trade Lin if a big name was coming this way. Most of us thinks it's Bosh that it was referring to, but maybe it's somebody else?

    If we stand PAT, then let Parsons go to Dallas. $15m is not worth it.

    We have a couple of options.

    We can try to spend our money under the cap by the time we have to match parsons to get an impact player and proceed as planned.

    Or, if we fail to land an impact player by the time the clock runs out, we can do one of two things...

    1. Match Parsons, re-sign the remainder of our roster to get us over the cap (TJones, Dmo, etc), then use the 2 TPE's from the Asik and Lin trades (2 players up to $8.3M), and the MLE ($5M or so) to either sign or trade for players.

    or

    2. Let Parsons walk, re-sign our bench/trade for roster improvements and use the cap space to try to fill out the roster with cap space, but we'll lose the TPE's and won't be able to use the MLE in the off season.

    There are still options, but clearly the big dogs are out of the game now (Lebron, Bosh, Love, Melo) -- so we'll need to aim considerably lower.

    No matter what the Rockets do now they will still lose in the 1st rd.
    There was nothing left to do but to go after Love but parsons contract killed that idea.

    Rockets are an 8th seed at best as of right now.

    He's ****ed. Bosh bent him over the table and went to brown-town on him. I bet Bosh didn't even take him out to dinner first.

    Phoenix signed Isaiah Thomas to offer sheet, that means Morey has to at least call Phoenix and see what's up with Dragic, right?

    If you believe what the guy in the other thread said (forgot his name), Morey had a verbal agreement with Bosh before the trade
