Is that the one dude who was posting during the Finals and then ended up getting banned real quick for calling someone an idiot or something like that? Lol

I have no idea, but I think everything I've said has went through his head and been translated to "waiters sucks" because he literally has missed the point of every one of my posts lol.

We should be hearing what Parsons is doing my goodness. The kid can ball (can't play defense) but he can ball.

Cleveland, Charlotte, Dallas, Lakers someone get that man a contract offer to screw those damn Rockets. They do it all the time with those poison pill contracts.

Re: 2014 Off-Season Thread

I think its a bad move giving Hayward big money but he is only 24 and put up 16/5/5 as the top option this year.

@AlexKennedyNBA: Explains the Cavs strong interest in Trevor Ariza They view Wiggins as a SG, & want Ariza to slide in and start at SF

. Sort'a DNA David Blatt LOVES.

Idk I would prefer chandler. Gordon Hayward is more of an SG. Plus rockets are less likely to match.

Why no one is forcing the Rockets hand with Parsons right now is beyond me.

Yeah it's frustrating

I think they're all waiting on Lebron and Melo's decision.

Stupid really. The fact that Charlotte and Cleveland aren't pouncing on this guy right now is a crime. Neither of those teams are getting LeBron or Melo.

Re: 2014 Off-Season Thread

Latest thing I've heard regarding Lowry is that he's already met with Houston and Toronto, and might make a decision before going further. From the sounds of that, seems like if he does go further, that means Toronto and Houston will both be out of the question and then Miami/LA are the next 2 to have a shot at him.

Re: 2014 Off-Season Thread

let me start off by saying....oj more powa too ya for not going off on that cavs fan...he probly some kid who was banned.

josh smith is not a center...i mean..really cmon troll atleast something believeable.


--as far as parsons go, i saw on one of the twitters that i think dallas was going to make a run at parsons if melo falls through.


also, its about time this came out..been wanting it since stevens was hired

Marc Stein @ESPNSteinLine · 3h RT <s>@</s>DJJazzyJody: Jazz RFA Gordon Hayward has been contacted by Celtics' Danny Ainge and Brad Stevens, according to Boston Globe


@majin, yeah i also read on realgm that toronto did/considering throwing a 5th year at lowry...i think he might decide before even meeting with anyone else

Stan Van Gundy, you're better than that. Meeks is a nice bench player but 19 million? They got rid of Dumars and brought you in for a reason man

That's basically overpaying someone out of spite and any GM that does that deserves to be fired on the spot.

Re: 2014 Off-Season Thread

Man Bosh & Wade's massive pay-cut was somewhat surprising but huge for what Riley can do now. Again, Miami is a tax-free state so I guess they would be more willing to accept lesser pay plus Wade deserves more than Bosh solely from a business perspective since he does generate more revenue to the team than Bosh. Anyway if the sources are true, that leaves Miami with about $29 million in cap space remaining. There was also reports that Heat officials informed they would have $12 million available so this kind of alleviates the notion that LeBron wants the max deal. I'd say LeBron gets a contract around the $14-15 million range- and if he does, they'll have close to $15 million to play around with.

In an ideal world, it'll be great if we can somehow coup Gortat and Ariza but I don't see Gortat as someone that would be willing to sacrifice money. Heck maybe even make a pitch to Melo to sign for $15 mill? Alternatively we could try and re-tool a very deep rotation and acquire guys (one of each) from Ariza/Marion/Deng, Gasol/Varejao/Okafor/Hawes, Carter/Mike Miller, and Jameer Nelson/Livingston.

Madness...yes Madness is what it is LOL.

While I do think Meeks could really flourish in Stan van's system, 19 is bit much.

I'm not even listening to Lowry rumors until it's done. Everything is all over the place.

Re: 2014 Off-Season Thread

Is there even anything available that's an upgrade over Andy/Hawes? Idk many teams jumping to trade their starting Big for Waiters..

Outside chance that maybe the Bucks would do something with Sanders, but you would have to take back Mayo and then add Andy or someone to balance the contracts. Idk

I don't think Milwaukee will move Larry with Kidd there. Kidd reportedly was pushing Brooklyn very hard to trade for Sanders. I'd imagine he's pretty excited to work with him.

Why no one is forcing the Rockets hand with Parsons right now is beyond me.

Nobody can sign until the 8th anyways, so they can't really force Houston's hand for 10 days since they'll then have 3 days to match any offer Parsons gets.
