Let guys with no front office experience run your team, brehs.
Still better than Joe Dumars!

No joke, I like the re-sign. Expecting some production from him next season, I would love something like 6 pts, 5 rebs.
That's a low fucking bar.

I actually got to watch a summer league game and enjoyed it way more than I should have.
McDermott needed that after the first game but then again, first official professional games usually can be pretty rough.
Speaking of rough, Bairstow looked very early on but I'm kind of impressed as his size is imposing and like his midrange touch.
Good stuff...or as good as a summer league game could reasonably be.
I'm looking for ward to Tony Snell making a Jimmy Butler-type leap even if it's too early to say that he will.

I don't have a problem with Aldrich. The Knicks have to fill the roster some how. But what makes me depressed is the idea that the Knicks have exhausted their dealing options for this free agency. Also, I'm not sure Aldrich is good for 6 points 5 rebounds a game coming off the bench. In fact, that would be a miracle.

I was thinking this today too... the actual possibilty of 5 white guys on the court at the sametime in the NBA in 2014.
Hinrich-Dunleavy-McDermott-Mirotic-Gasol. It would be a freakish sight.

My fellow Rockets fans are having epic meltdowns and on suicide watch on our various subreddits and boards xD What can I say, karma is a biatch.
I'm happy Lin is gone, as an Asian-American myself I knew he wasn't fitting in to whatever systems we have here (do we have one?) and wasn't happy here so I hope he finds success with the Lakers. My cousins in San Gabriel are losing their shit right now, lil punks. Loosing Asik really really hurts, the big guy was sulking sure but he could defend and was a great backup to Dwight. Loosing Parsons.. I'm sorta ambivalent about. The guy is good, but not $15 mil good. Just think about it, he is now paid more than anyone on the Spurs.. lol
Not gonna lie, Cuban got our guy Morey good with Parsons but I wonder if we'll get the last laugh. $15 freaking million.. *sigh* back to drinking. Lets see what scrubs we sign to fill out the roster.

Its a good strategy. Worked out well for Orlando and Drummond is the guy to build around.
Josh Smith is still on the team though.

Mavs have a pretty good starting line-up.

If Dallas can add a veteran like Mo Williams we'd have a pretty strong lineup:
Williams/Felton
Monta/Harris
Parsons/Crowder
Nowitzki/??
Chandler/Wright
I think it's a top 6 team, probably number 5..

We let go of Parsons to keep cap space for an Allstar PF. It won't happen until at least next FA though. Maybe we can get Love or Durant

Late 40's, early 50's. Which is good enough for 6-8 seed in the West. The two weak links are Chandler and Felton. Chandler has fallen off and wasn't the same elite defender last season. I don't know if was age or health issues. Felton was horrible last season and was the worst starting PG by a mile. No way he'll start over Harris.

A lot of people no longer believe in Chandler but I still like him(and no, not because he was once a Bull).
Every team needs a bit of toughness and he provides it.
I haven't followed him regressing and I don't doubt that but I thought the Knicks should have kept him to have SOMETHING along with Carmoney Anthony but I don't know how huge Chandler's contract was and all that shit.
As far as Felton is concerned, I don't think he's talentless but never was a fan at all.

Yeah that Drummond / Monroe / Smith lineup did wonders for them last year...
They really need to find a way to dump Smith any way possible.
But Smith is a shooter! He can space the floor!

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Oh, I know. They need to get rid of Smith immediately. Dumars was such a terrible GM.
It seems we are in an era of signing people to huge paychecks for positions they never had before.

As for Mario Chalmers, hearing he landed a two-year deal from the Heat in the region of $8+ million

That sentence alone is better than LeBron's whole award-winning essay.
Except for the part where free agency is different from marriage.
You know, contracts and all.

He did and I wanted him back but he really disappeared in the playoffs.
The talk about him being a fluke though makes me shake my head, he was pretty dam consistent and a force during the regular season.
Love his game despite his size and shortcomings, he deserves the best.
I've been out of town this weekend, so I just saw that Deng signed with the Heat. I actually like the Heat again as a result. Don't like Wade/Chalmers/Haslim but I do like Bosh and Deng. Will be a fun team to watch next season I think. Speaking of fun teams, Mavs are going to be pretty fun to watch too.
Ehh maybe they feel with LeBron off his back he'll improve? Otherwise I think they should have gone after another guard on the market.
Awesome.
What guard on the market provides better value at that price? Statistically, Rio was very solid man. We've overreacted on his bad playoff run.
I think with the line up they have now they need a better court orchestrator than him.
Also I liked the Heat when they were running guys like Odom/OG Wade and Hardaway/Mourning before that. I despised modern Heat, that's why I said I'm a Heat "fan" again.
Oh and this fucking awesome dude.

Rio/Wade/Deng/Bosh/Bird that's a lineup I can dig. I just wish we had taken a shot at grabbing Monroe.
I eagerly await to see what Spo will do to re-engineer the offense now that Lebron is gone. Lets remember they went through 2 different Offensive philosophies while the Big 3 were together. First one fizzled in the finals, then came the offense that won them 2 titles which was centered around Lebron purely.
Right... But who?I think with the line up they have now they need a better court orchestrator than him.

We got screwed out of a shot at Isaiah t. PHX isn't giving is Bledsoe.
No one left.
Right around what he made last contract. I like the length. It's gonna suck if we don't land a lunker in 2016. PEACE.
Not much left now you're right. Time to convert Jimmer to a PG.
Mo Williams is available, he'd be okay as a tandem with Chalmers. What's the deal with Evan Turner? Is he being looked at by any teams? Do teams even want him?

Chalmers/Napier/Cole. Is there a worst PG tandem in the league?
