    AreJoe Johnson & Boris Diaw returning? I think losing those two and Hayward would be a huge blow.

    Shocked to read that KCP is a poor defender, I always thought that was his main strength.

    Nwaba should catch on with another team, I believe. He's a little undersized but brings hustle, athleticism and defense.

    Cleveland should make a run at him with a two-way contract offer.

    I'm surprised that there has been no news about Dedmon, Ginobili or Simmons. Manu is really pulling some Brett Favre **** dragging this decision out.

      Johnson will be back no matter what, he still has another year left on his deal. Diaw is a team option; $7.5M IIRC. If the Jazz want Diaw back, they'll bring him back. Until then, we need a backup center ASAP. Losing Jeff Withey hurts.

            Being a star ****er is the main problem with Stephen A. Smith the reporter. He will push rumors that benefit a player he has a relationship with. He wants to be one of the boys. Other than that I find his character to be entertaining in small doses. Bill Simmons is alright depending on what the topic is. Anything regarding present day Boston sports I tune out. His opinions are largely irrelevant.

            I treat the two as entertainers for the most part. Tend to take neither all that serious. You took a wrong turn somewhere if those guys are who you are looking at for legitimate sports news from.

                Superstar Joffrey Lauvergne bruh. Don't worry though he can't be any worse than he was here and in OKC.

                  NY Daily News reporting Knicks and Rockets trade for Carmelo is "at the two yard line."

                      Also, I believe they mention something about Melo preferring Houston over Cleveland due to his concern that Lebron is leaving Cleveland next offseason.

                          So in today's installment of "Damn, That Dumpster Fire Got Out of Hand Quickly" let's check on how the Bulls' second round pick that we sold for cash and then proceeded to basically release the supposed big man depth that made drafting him a "waste because he wouldn't have made our roster" is doing out there.



                          Granted it's just Summer League, but this is such a Bulls outcome. God this franchise is just....ughh

                              Not like he couldn't opt out and follow LeBron.

                              There's got to be another reason. Maybe Melo doesn't feel Cleveland would be as fun to play on.

                                Personally I just don't think it's a good fit. Assuming they keep Love, Love would have to play center for them and the two of them would provide absolutely zero rim protection
