Idk if it is that simple, to free the cap space in a manner that would make us not just a playoff team, but contenders. Oh, and the guy from the Bulls you are talking about is Omer Asik, he is a center from Turkey, I think. Lowry hates McHale? This is news to me. Dragic is being sought after by the Suns (his former team) and the Lakers, I believe. You got a point with the bigs; Scola is our best one, but after him we have Dalembert/Camby (do we still have Morris?), not good at all. Asik isn't going to be the next Yao, but I think he can still step in and provide sufficient defense and rebounding so our defense in the 4th quarter won't look like it is allowing layup drills.

Dalembert gone to Milwaukee in a trade for the 12th pick, that's why you see Jeremy Lamb in a Rockets' hat. Milwaukee got the 14th. Jack Stevens is still mad that his Bucks didn't get Lamb. Lowry doesn't like Mchale's coaching I think. I think Morris is still here. And then there's this euro guy, Donatus something. Montejuis? There's the old shorte guy, Bonkins.

Yeah Lowry hates McHale ands wants to move teams. Also Houston traded Dalembert for a pick in the draft so they don't have him anymore.

We need to get rid of Morris', Bonkins' and Donatus' crappy contracts fast. Good thing we still have 3 months of offseason left.

hhhmmm, Mirris' brother is doing better than him! I think the Rockets said "They want to get Morris up slowly" same with Donatus. Bonkins was just an effort to get to the PO. I think they should pput Lamb & T. Jones in the D-League for 1 season. Then get em up to the NBA fast. Trade White somewhere else, don't like him at all. They should've gotten Zeller.

It looks like The Nets have seemed to pick up an all-star SG in Joe Johnson to help make Deron Williams want to stay and the Nets kept their best rookie and basically sent Atlanta 2 trash players, 2 below average players and a future first round pick...


Johnson earn 90 Mio in the next four year, i believe the biggest contract in the NBA. This dude must be awesome, oh wait he is not even close to the best of his position.

For me that would be a no go for williams to stay, only when he goes only for the title and sign and minimum contract. Cause if he stay, they both nearly fill up the cap space giving up the pick also reduce the chanche to get cheap and good backups.

I don't think the Hawks are done making trades, because I don't see how it would work with Harris and Teague there, with both being decent starting point guards that don't play shooting guard. I think the trades were a good move for the Hawks, because they had been caught in that zone where they weren't good enough to contend for a title, but not bad enough to get a good draft pick, so they needed to do something, and this is a good start to rebuilding the team. They still have a very good front court with Horford and Smith that they can build around, they just need them to stay healthy.

No.

The Raptors are crazy for offering Steve Nash 12 million a year when they already have Jose Calderon...

Williams is staying and reports are that the Nets are now speaking to Orlando about Howard. Johnson may be the bait for a Brooklyn-Orlando deal.

the bait would be the players, Orlando have to give him away when they want something back. But currently i don't see a better deal then the rumored offer from Houston from the Nets. Especially since they need to overpay to make the offer possible, when i see it right.

And even then:
Williams 20 Mio +Johnson 22 Mio + Howard 20 Mio + and probadly Wallace 10 Mio = 72 Mio for four players and imho with a lower quality then the Heat, who didn't have an easy way to the title. Basically no bench, which mean higher injury risk, even when i like the Howard Williams combo, but i don't like the Johnson Williams Combo so much since both need the ball in there hands but Hopefully william get it most times.
