Deron and JJ's max contracts were feeling lonely.

well it doesn't make any difference. They aren't getting Dwight. They are a luxury tax team anyways. And this is chump change for Prohovhorv

sunday white is so MINE!

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Awww yeah.

Yeah, that should work really well and be cool, but Nash's assist numbers should generally come down (though that doesn't matter if he helps their offense a lot which he will)

I agree, LA's lack of outside shooting should see to that.

LOL Nets

 

[CoffeeJanitor]

I just don't understand why they would max bropez. WHY???

 

[Roger Danish]

guess no 3way.

D12 to the Rockets would definitely be the best possible resolution of the Howardrama for non-Lakers, non-Nets fans.

 

[SoulPlaya]

I'm so pissed the Bulls aren't in this. Fucking offer ORL any 2 of Boozer, Deng, Noah plus CHA pick plus our first. Take JRich or Turk if we must. Throw in Mirotic if thats what it takes to close the deal.

If he doesn't re-sign with us once his contract is up oh fucking well now we have a ton of cap space and a

rejuvenated, in his prime?

Rose ready to reload.

Not like we have some amazing contracts we just gotta keep as the 3 aforementioned Bulls are all slightly-to-heavily overpaid. Win win in my eyes.

I see the hate in you Miner. Embrace the hate! Come, join us!

Also, sorry about your team probably being forced next year to give Pek a max contract

D12 to the Rockets would definitely be the best possible resolution of the Howardrama for non-Lakers, non-Nets fans.

But that isn't resolution. The rumors about LA and Brooklyn will continue until the trade deadline and then the discussion will be whether he'll sign with the Hawks or Rockets or Mavericks if the Rockets don't trade him.

Didn't you hear? Quin Snyder is gone. #Reload

But itz not da same doe...

Damn Billy King. Splurging with dat oil money!

Eh it's alright. I knew it was coming.

The last three way the Rockets tried to have with the Lakers ended badly.

Time for some Rockets and Orlando alone time.

Tax team or not, you severely restrict your free agent signings and trade possibilities with albatross contracts.

Don't be such a prude, give in to Bynum lust.

 

[thekad]

Why would the Rockets need cap space they already have?

 

[Nelo Ice]

Tax team or not, you severely restrict your free agent signings and trade possibilities with albatross contracts.

And next offseason over the cap teams can't do sign and trades.

 

[Roger Danish]

I meant resolution in terms of avoiding another super-team. Although by that criteria, LA wouldn't be a resolution, either, since he has yet to agree to sign an extension there.

And why would Dwight stay with Houston to play with a bunch of rookies?

And don't say money.

A lot of money.

He'd be foolish to agree to sign an extension with anyone anyway since he'd be leaving 2 years and like 40 million on the table. Reason Lakers aren't worried is he'll be coming to the big market he craves and they're a championship winning franchise. If he doesn't resign in LA his only options for a max contract will leave him short $25 million and he'll have his choice of Houston, Atlanta, or Dallas unless there are more teams that will have cap room to even give him a max offer.

These rumors suck.

It's pretty much why if anything happens at least regarding the Lakers side we won't know anything concrete until it's official. Mitch deals tend to come out of absolutely nowhere.

Apparently Deron signed his new contract on an iPad.

Does the word "max" even mean anything, anymore? It's like they just throw money now.

Sources tell me that Chris Broussard signed his new contract using an iPad.

DWill tells me that the pen he used to sign his contract was "damn ill, yo".

Brook Lopez is gonna sign a 100 mill dollar contract guys, let that sink in for a moment.

So tired of Dwight Howard saga, just get this thing done. Also sick of my twitter blowing up ever five minutes telling me some bullshit about how so and so team is back in the "lead" for him.

Should be illegal to give a center who can't get more than 5 rebounds a game even a 4th of that.

Why the fuck would Morey trade everything without Howard signing an extension???

Oh wait, he's the Wizard.
