Durant needs to stay in OKC. That team deserves him.

Durant deserves better. He can come to LA and be D'Angelo's sidekick.

We all know Durant wants to play for Michael Jordan.
KD to Buzz City in 2016. Believe.

I wouldnt opt out if I was Deng.
Edit: Not a bad move either.. He might get less than $10 mill next season but at least he can get a longer deal.

Saw that Jordan is choosing between the Clippers and Mavericks, I've seen this story before with Dwight, congratulations Clips fans.

I'm sure Justise can brick 3s off the front iron just as good as Deng did last season.
Randolph Freelander

Give me veteran's minimum, I'll front rim as many 3s as you need.
Put me in, coach, I'm ready to play.

DeAndre Jordan to meet with Clippers, Lakers, Mavs and Knicks when the free-agency bell rings, league source says. "Slight edge" to Clips.

Yeah, Deng hasn't been remotely the same player he was in Chicago. I guess he wants this season to help increase his value for next year with the tv deal coming. He played surprisingly good with Dragic in the transition game, but dude can't hit shots consistently. He plays like Wade nowadays.

Deng's only contribution is that he looked like a real player on that xmas game where we pushed it back into lebrons butt.
But i swear i cant remember anything else he did last season.
I guess i can deal for one more season.

Since Deng stayed he can call up his boy Dunleavy and help get him down here.

I'm sure Seattle would rejoice if that happened.
If he for some reason wants to come to LA (or any other big market, for that matter), I hope he wins a title in OKC first.

Knicks are frontrunners for two free agents -- Greg Monroe and Arron Afflalo, league sources told Yahoo Sports. Those are realistic targets.

no one, the Nets are just trying to push that narrative so that some unsuspecting team/Michael Jordan falls for him and his stupid contract and wants to deal.

Riley probably told Ainge to shut the fuck up again and to hang up the phone.

Boston learned the hard way this year that a pile of assets means jack shit if no one actually wants to trade.

It becomes just a pile of ass. nobody wants a handful of mid tier picks.

I mean, it's fine to pass on that offer for a player like Winslow that looks to be ready to play. It's another thing to pass on it for Frank Kaminsky.

It is an honor that he would consider us. I don't see the Celtics on the list so that is that. Believe in Masai.

Yeah, but it seems strange for a big name free-agent to be considering the Raptors.
Jahlil has been working pretty hard apparently in Delaware, Coach brown saying he's showing up to practice before he does
A lot of people questioned his work ethic, so its nice too see him already starting real well.
The Philadelphia Seventy-Centers might actually have a real scoring threat now which should help Jeremy Grants offense even more, and I look forward to seeing Canaan or Smith run the point and see what they can do with so much focus on Okafor down low, hopefully Noel can find a midrange game and Jahlil is able to score. If Jahlil is good, we might win over 20 games this year

Wsshington would be the place to go. That Gortat contract is killer.
