You should be fucking ecstatic.

Joe is easily one of the 2 or 3 most overpaid guys in the league and his contract was utterly strangling the Hawks' desire to improve.

Atlanta should throw Ferry a parade just for getting rid of Joe and Marvin.

I agree. Those 2 seemed like immovable objects for the longest. I just don't want to go back to the days of 20-30 win seasons.

You guys are making a run at losing out on Howard and CP3.

That's what I'm afraid of, losing out on them, Josh hitting the road and then we are up shit creek with an ass full of ore.

 

[Mxrz]

Not sure what to think if Dwight ends up staying after all this. Winning fixes a lot, and having him plus all that space in 2013 would be something, but good grief.

Might have to go to a Hawks game out of some sort of weird respect for moving Joe.

I'm supposed to study for a test, but I'm sitting here doing the same thing.

Lol, think im just gonna play some D3 and wait it out.. Stein will blow my phone up if anything happens.

I just got word Batum's two options at this point, are the Blazers and the Timberwolves. He's focused on coming to an agreement with one of them and has postponed all other team visits.

[Dmncnby2k9]

So do the Hawks have enough cap room to get Dwight and CP3 next year?

Also is Marvin Williams going to be happy backing up G-Tyme?

G-Tyme might be starting SG.

waffling all around!

Lets see...


Big Threes:

- Boston : Rondo, Pierce, Garnett
- Miami : Bosh, LeBron, Wade
- NYK: Melo, Stat, Chandler
- BKN: DWill, JJ, Lopez
- OKC: Durant, YKB, Harden
- POR: LMA, Mathews, Diebler

Rank them

Wait, what about Love, Rubio, Williams?

David Aldridge ‏@daldridgetnt

Subtract another $1.5M RT @NetsDaily Hearing Farmar will be bought out for $1.5M as soon as deal is done. He preferred buyout to opt-out.

What an amazing deal.

 

[KingGondo]

LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Paul and Deron Williams are assured of being on the team in London along with 2010 World Championship holdovers Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, Kevin Love and Tyson Chandler.

That leaves six guys for three spots:

Blake Griffin, Andre Iguodala, Rudy Gay, James Harden, Eric Gordon and Anthony Davis.

BC said Davis is still under consideration in spite of the sprained ankle.

Griffin, Gordon, and Davis are my predictions. Size, plus experience from the FIBA tournament in Gordon. I'm not gonna lie and say I don't want Harden to make it though.

@DeronWilliams how did those meetings go? Do we need a couple more rounds of golf?

Jason Kidd is trolling us all.

Ferry with no regard for human life.

Doesn't really matter if Davis is still under consideration if the Hornets forbid him from joining, which I fully expect them to do.

Btw:

Per K.C. Johnson: Bulls assistant Rick Brunson joining Mike Dunlap on #Bobcats coaching staff.

 

[diehard]

i just realized Mo Williams will essentially have to have his full name on his jersey.

 

[Dominican Power]

Anthony Davis is looking he's made out of glass already.

I like that Nets troll on the db.com forums, talkin bout the Mavs bein desperate when his team just went out and traded for fuckin Joe Johnson. That alone screams of desperation.

Eh considering it's looking like its only a minor sprain I don't think they are going to forbid him from anything.

I like batum on the wolves though.

Just get the medical checks done properly this time i guess.

Wait, what about Love, Rubio, Williams?

Love Rubio Pek you mean?

Kings Talking to Ryan Anderson? http://t.co/fmZkzlSK

Jason Jones ‏@mr_jasonjones
Sources confirm RFA Ryan Anderson visited the Kings today.

Jason Jones ‏@mr_jasonjones
Anderson had lunch with team officials and visited team's practice facility. Local product from Oak Ridge High School, attended Cal, too.

Jason Jones ‏@mr_jasonjones
Kings' interest in Ryan Anderson makes sense. Team needs a player who can spread the floor and Anderson would be ...http://t.co/7gTWguqx

WE DO NOT NEED A FUCKING STRETCH 4, WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK ARE YOU DOING PETRIE!?!?

I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU OVERPAY THIS MOTHERFU-

Jason Jones ‏@mr_jasonjones
Spoke with Petrie about Ryan Anderson: "He was primarily a (PF) in Orlando but he can play some other spots on the perimeter."

going for maximum trollage.

 

[pilonv1]

This is going to be like when they tried Jason Thompson at small forward.

 

[Brinbe]

Just read that Jrue wants max money? whaaaaa hahahaha

Sixers guard Jrue Holiday added to USA select team roster. Holiday also is seeking a max contract extension from Sixers, source tells Yahoo!

Never change, Dr. Blade.

 

[Hydrogen Bluebird]

Why are the kings trying to sign a PF when they need an actual SF?! Are they thinking of playing another guy out of their natural position? WTF!

 

[StickSoldier]

Source says Nets' meeting with Deron Williams "went well," but no word on a decision.Sam Amick ‏@sam_amick

http://twitter.com/#!/sam_amick/

hmm, wonder if he'll decide tonight or tomorrow.

 

[marathonfool]

Kings like playing players out of position. Jimmer at PG. Evans at PG.

 

[Adam Blade]

Never change, Dr. Blade.

I must say, I did not expect the Blunder to be torn a new one that badly by the cHeat earlier this year.

 

[SamuraiX-]

I think I'll just spiritually bandwagon the Hawks this season.

FERRYDAGODZ will show me the light.

But seriously, a huge congrats to Hawks age. Ferry is absolutely demolishing the league. And holy fuck if he can entice Howard to go there and pair up with Al Horford (moving him to his natural position).

Kicking off this rebuild took him all of like 8 days since he's been in that Hawks front office. I just can't help but be marveled

Spoiler

and fiendishly jealous and bitter.

HE CAN PLAY THE 3!

REMEMBER ALL THOSE TIMES IN HIS CAREER WHEN HE WAS SUCCESSFUL WHEN THEY PLAYED HIM AT 3??

ME NEITHER!!

If they wanted a 6'10" chucker who takes threes they already had Donte Green. Not sure what Ryno achieves after drafting Robinson.

 

[SamuraiX-]

Sactown Royalty &#8207;@sactownroyalty
There's a case to be made for Ryan Anderson to the Kings, and it doesn't involve converting him into a SF. Tomorrow on @sactownroyalty.

Oh, joy.

This is why this shit keeps happening. Because these dumb ass fucking fans just keeping eating up and supporting every horrible move made by our FO.

Shit, they're probably content that we're just making moves at all despite Petrie's horrible track record in free agency periods.

 

[23:6 KJV]

How did these same Maloofs preside over the early 2000s Kings.

They took the most fun NBA team of the past decade and were like, let's develop the exact opposite team from what we had.

 

[Hydrogen Bluebird]

Shit, they're probably content that we're just making moves at all despite Petrie's horrible track record in free agency periods.

I just wish they'd just offer a ton of money to Kirilenko and then we'd have an actual small forward. Kings front office lack funds but they also lack common sense. They play players out of their natural positions and then sign free agents to do the exact same thing!

 

[darkside31337]

Wow a team actually appreciates Ryan Anderson's talents, you Kings fans will be singing a different tune once he plays for you guys.

 

[Jonm1010]

Organizations like the kings, rockets and the Nets make me realize that maybe our team isn't going to win much for the next couple years, at least we aren't being run by a bunch of fucking idiots who are doing everything in their power to strangle their franchises in the future.

 

[pilonv1]

I wonder if their plan involves starting Anderson and Cousins with Robinson off the bench. Not a terrible idea, but they're paying stupid money to Chuck Hayes and Travis Outlaw, and they want to re-sign Jason Thompson.

Makes no sense.
