LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

New NBA info: Source tells me that the #Spurs are in serious negotiations with #Suns to acquire Marcin Gortat...



Wait wut? Does this mean Splitter is gone? Or even...gasp Bonner!?

EDIT: I'm not so lucky :/

Source: Spurs-Suns deal 4 Gortat would either be n a Splitter sign-and-trade or Diaw/filler. Suns get at least a 2014 1st rounder either way

I hear they're chasing AK47 too... Those would be a couple of really fantastic pickups for the Spurs.

All the rule changes didn't amount to anything. Look at the contract Tyreke is getting from a team that was terrible last season and will most likely be terrible next season. How will he fit in with Brow? He's ball dominant and can't shoot. They just traded for a ball dominant player in Holiday. There was zero reason for them to overpay Tyreke.

Bargs the Knicks is official. He has talent so I hope some new scenery and being on a good team will help him.

Splitter was actually good for us this year. :(

Is Gortat a better post player than Splitter?

Can someone please explain what is so freakin great about Eric Bledsoe? Seems every team is pining for him.

Bucks thinking sign and trade Reddick for Bledsoe. And realgm says this would surely spell the end of Jennings in Milwaukee.

So wait..... Bledsoe is better than Jennings?
...... But Reddick isn't better than Jennings.
....... Why would the clips give up Bledsoe if he is better than Reddick and Jennings?


First day of free agency and my brain hurts.



Lakers should jump all over that Bogut and Klat for Dwight. They aren't ever gonna find a player of Klay's ability in free agency this year.

Seeing these ridiculous extensions throw around for guys like Tyreke makes me question how LMA ever settled for this:

Extension signed October 22, 2009 for an assumed $62,500,000 plus incentives for 5 years starting in 2010-11.

Both Jennings and Bledsoe are basically combo guards at this point. Bledsoe is younger and has shown himself to be a more willing passer though. Bledsoe also finishes better around the rim.

Why the hell would the Suns trade Gortat for Splitter? We gotta get something better than Splitter and a 2014 pick for him. We better make up for it somewhere else..

We still have no proof of this other than a "source" for cbssports. I don't ever defend Howard and think he's a douche with a lot of stuff, but Parsons is his good friend and this story just seems odd.

As odd as one source saying he could care less that Dream was there and talking to Jack Nicholson was cool.

Evans has serious interest in signing with the Pelicans, and will likely agree to sign the deal if the Kings tell him later today in their meeting in Los Angeles that they will not match. Owner Vivek Ranadive, general manager Pete D'Alessandro and coach Michael Malone are expected to take part in the meeting, and a person with knowledge of the Kings' thinking said they are considering matching the offer.

If Jennings had a big man or reliable shooter to pass to I'm sure he would be a more willing passer. And I know Bledsoe can get up but Jennings has plenty of skill around the hoop.

I'm not seeing it man. If a team is able to trade Reddick to replace their pg and actually improve then all the power to them. But I'm not seeing it.

They're nothing like combo guards.

Gortat is incredibly soft. And after watching him in the PnR for a few seasons, he's only dead average in it.

Also, Reddick is a more valuable player than Bledsoe unless you're an idiot.

Depends on how bad Dallas is. And you keep Perk.

That doesn't really help our salary cap for next year which I assume is what we're attempting since our GM has made it clear we're not going after big names in FA. Damn... we may not have much of a better option later.
