You can't amnesty players you receive in a trade.

Lol, just reading all those tweets in a row he comes across as somebody with mental health issues. "And another thing. He's a wuss. Not like Pat Ewing! And another thing!" etc. etc.
CMD+F Lin: 1 of 40
Give it a rest, crazy guy.
Okay, add 4M to Hickson to those numbers:

And they have a pretty good selection of options to be under the cap by next season (Babbitt, Gadzuric, Williams, Jeffries, Shawne could go).
But they clearly have taken their youth movement very far.

ZOMG. There's a Jonny Flynn rumour too. Was the "my board is clear" thing from Colangelo an actual smokescreen and not just an internet-people-hope-it's-just-a-smokescreen?
If he's making moves for guys who can play actual backup PG minutes then he's still trying to ship Calderon out.
KG is a pf playing center and will be retired in 1-2 years.
Chandler has zero offensive game and Bynum would average 20+ without kome jacking up bad shots.
Bogut is always hurt but even healthy Bynum is a much better scorer (better on D than Bynum on average though)
There are three young centers in the league who can average 20+ with actual post moves.
Bynum
Jefferson (more of a pf and rebounding/D took a dive after knee injury)
potentially Demarcus cousins if he gets his shit together a little more.
Of the three Bynum is the only one who has shown flashes of also being a great defender.

According to DieHard, Lillard is the next Ronnie Price. So it's like getting another lottery pick.

I'd do
LAL - Howard, JRich Hedo
ORL - Varejao, Blake, McRoberts, Zeller and 2 firsts
CLE - Bynum, Metta
Next year Lakers could trade Hedo as an expiring for another nice piece for a final run for Kobe.

Fixed. Turk is a no go for moi.
J-Rich, well, he and Nash would have to squash their beef.
But honestly, I'm fine with not getting Howard if he doesn't want to take the pressure of playing in LA and instead would want to play in New York for 25M less (?)
...yea, I don't get it. I must be missing something.
I'd rather have a loaf of sourdough than Turkeyglue. There has to be someone else, a shooter or something.
A decent third pg who is basically only known for one crazy baseline dunk on Carlos Boozers head.
(when Price was on Kings and Boozer was on Jazz)

I hope so!
And even if not, JL3/Flynn would at least be better than bringing back someone like Uzoh.

I'd add Monroe to that list, but yeah that's about it.

I refuse to believe that Flynn is an upgrade over anybody.

I like monroe alot but I always think of him as a pf even though against 90% of teams he can play center with no issue. But yeah you're right.
:/ I'm sold on trying a Lillard/Smith combo.
Would prefer if we went after Craig Smith or Carl Landry.

Its been pretty great so far, he dropped "Ron Artest is an asshole" before they could censor it.

Orlando's new GM thinks he can get Dwight Howard to change his mind and stay. Otherwise-a source tells me-the Laker deal would nearly b done

Thank him for game 7 and the game winner in L.A, Lakers-age.

I still remember the game winner he hit in Utah.
It'll be worth it.
The more I look at that gif, the more I'm convinced that he flopped to a deegree.

He's got Bruce Lee level reactions to that elbow touching him if that's a flop. Artest isn't a weak dude and elbows are banned in boxing and UFC for a reason.
Does flopping mean he saw the elbow coming at the last moment and did what he could to avoid it?
Elbows aren't banned in UFC, wtf?

If that's flopping then Harden's head must be made of adamantium. An elbow to the head (especially by a swole motherfucker like Metta) would knock my ass out
...as well as every other body part that isn't covered with a boxing glove. Smh.
UFC? No.
12-6 elbows are
