The point to backloading is to make a restricted free agent's original team less likely to match, since the cap hit wouldn't be averaged for them...
The Raptors had Calderon under contract a year ago. They still went after Kyle Lowry, a lateral move, even at the price of a lottery pick. If...
LET'S GO GRIZZ!!! [img]
They're good players who are 24 and 26 years old. They make perfect sense for a rebuilding team.
LOL. So in this thread, you've told us that: 1.) Every GM in the league would take Griffin over Harden and now... 2.) Omer Asik, a...
There are zero reasons for Atlanta to move him. NBA teams don't like trading a dollar for four quarters (because in general, it's a terrible idea)...
I thought that for much of the year. But as much as we love Carlos, he'll be 31 years old and coming off a year in which he shot 40% from the...
If James Harden is the only All-Star on the team, we're not a championship contender. It's that simple. Are there questions about the fit with...
Actually, I think it makes it far more likely Delfino returns. We were never going to pick up his option, due to cap space reasons. Any hopes of...
No, I'm going by ESPN's #NBArank. PER is one stat of many. http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/9139400/nba-player-rankings-no-1-lebron-james LOL....

Yes, they were the #4 seed and we were the #8 seed. Because they had Chris Paul. The idea that the Clippers without Paul are as good as the...
I think the situation is far simpler than you make it out to be. It doesn't matter if they were .500 in the limited games CP3 missed, or what...
A strong roster that with Paul was eliminated from the first round in six games... the same as the Rockets without Paul. That's an interesting...
It can't be overstated how valuable it is that Harden wants to be a part of this (the recruiting process). It's easy to forget, but the Bulls were...
No progress in the roster or coaching? In LeBron's last two years in Cleveland, they had the best record in the NBA (66-16, 61-21) in each. They...
My biggest concern with Smith -- WTF has happened to him at the foul line? 66% for his career, shot 73% two years ago... then dipped to 63% a year...
If he's still putting up numbers like this year? Yup.
How, exactly? The only way you can force a trade is if you have the leverage of an expiring contract. Otherwise, legit NBA superstars are the most...
