Both the Clippers President of Baskerball Operations and their head coach have both expressed disappointment with the job Grant Wohl has done at GM. He will be relieved of his duties effective immediately. Austin Rivers has been named interim GM.

Basically the Clips only gain so far is Lance fuckless Stephenson and may lose DeAndre Jordan? Lol Doc

Says at least one source close to talks on expected 3/60M deal for Brook Lopez and 4/50M deal for Thad Young: "Consider them done deals" - Marc Stein
As far as Nets contracts go those don't seem like the worst.

GM's gonna be throwing so much money around Juwan Howard might fuck around and get $10 million a year.

Looks like Wade is gonna get the max contract he wanted from looking at these fucked deals
We're gonna give it to him aren't we? 
Who was giving Lopez 20 million a year other than the Nets?

With the cap going up there are probably a few teams that would offer him something at least close to that.

Come oooooon already. I just want to know if Pop will make that magic happen.
You're crazy. He's played 60 games the last two seasons. Nobody was giving him that money.

Nets have no cap space anyway and no draft picks so there's really no reason to not just spend the Russian's money willy nilly and resign these guys.

Another interesting detail from the Leonard report by WoJ:
That's pretty much everyone short of Manu. They're really going all in.

If LMA goes to the Spurs just give them the trophy. Please LaMarcus go to Dallas or Houston heck even LA.

Still hoping to see Chris Broussard, live, pretend to get a text on his phone and confirm again where a player is going while it's already been made official on another website.

D Wade obviously intends to stay. Just dont give him the Kobe deal Micky and Pat.

A player was focused in a meeting. Stop the presses everyone!
Seriously, this Laker thirst by ESPN is just ridiculous. And no one else is reporting that BUT ESPN at the moment.

Naw, he ain't getting maxed out. He's going to at least get stupid paid for next season though.Looks like Wade is gonna get the max contract he wanted from looking at these fucked deals
We're gonna give it to him aren't we?
Let him test the market for 33 year old injury prone SGs whose mid and long range game is limited. Let's see who gives him more than $15 a year.
If he's bitter that bron bron cost him millions of dollars then maybe he should ask his buddy to buy him dinner.

Leonard the god getting paid B^)

LA lifestyle is the only reason LMA would consider the Lakers. From a basketball standpoint the Spurs have by far the best situation imaginable. LMA fits the Spurs' motion offense like a glove.
FFS LaMarcus come to SA and compete for titles every year for the rest of your career. Just do it already!

Everyone saying the Spurs are going to be toast once Duncan retires can just read this:
LMA can contend both in the near term and the foreseeable future. Lakers are selling you a brand and MAYBE sort-of potential if the stars align.

Holy shit, that's amazing.
Having LMA and Leonard locked up before the cap jumps up is going to be great for SA.

"ESPN sources say Goran Dragic has a five-year, $90 million deal from the Miami Heat" - Marc Stein
Comes with a player option after the 4th year.

$90 million is below the expected $100 million. Riley gets them discounted AGAIN!
But really, i imagine living in Miami and FL not having state taxes certainly helps at the negotiating table. I'm glad to see him stay, we still haven't seen him play in what the ideal starting lineup would be so it's nice to know that'll we'll see that next season.

Oh well. Cool with Millsap. Can't see the Hawks not keeping him though

Chances are we're gonna get rid of mcbob. Hopefully we dont because I want to see him play a good amount of games to see how he jells with the team.

Well, we're definitely moving Chalmers and Birdman, those guys need to go to get Wade his big check next season. Deng opting in suck because he wasn't going to get $10 mil in the open market and he seems smart enough to have figured that out on his own.
I don't see us getting rid of McBob right away. If that's the plan, then the move would be better saved for around the trading deadline after he's had a solid season coming off of an injury. Get his value up and then start seeing what you can get in return.
Business as Rasual!

If we lose Beli (which we probably will) then I want him back with the Spurs. Him and Green lighting up the Heat during their first Finals matchup still lingers with me.

Free agent guard Monta Ellis is gathering traction in talks with the Indiana Pacers, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

Larry Bird has been determined to secure Monta Ellis, and Pacers pushing hard to close a deal with him, league sources tell Yahoo.
$10.5m per ain't bad for Monta with the rising cap

It'd be hilarious if Riley just got rid of Wade after all the money he has sacrificed for the team.

Wade is getting maxed this year and then a 3-year deal next year and that's it. He ain't going nowhere.

Yeah, Wade just wants to get stupid paid at least one time in his career. And i don't blame him, he's never been the highest paid player ever on his own team. they owe him that much.
