Offensively i'd agree but ignoring that Clippers are *bleep*

Apparently he wants to be "the man". I guess he actually believes Rick Carlisle is going to make him a top option.

He really thinks he is better than he is. What is it with these guys who want to be focal points in the offence on the block, but cant even do a drop step

Carlisles gonna lose his mind. I wonder if he was in the meeting..

I don't know who the Clippers can get now. Koufos is still out there.

Read they want Amare and he would only come if it was to be part of the starting line up, not playing behind Jordan and Blake.

I'm just going to guess Deandre Jordan hated Chris Paul's guts or something about the environment of the clippers locker room. Only thing that makes any sense

Anyways glad the Knicks got Lopez. 13m per is a bit much but expected with the contracts being thrown around. Someone would have offered either that much if not more. I'd rather have Lopez at 13 than DJ at 20+ tbh

The crazy house in Sacremento just got crazier

Rondo has gone there

Interesting. They also signed Belinelli earlier.

....If Josh and JR Smith go to the Kings.

Rondo/JR/Rudy Gay/Josh Smith/Cousins

My god. What a line up.

I read earlier that Rondo wanted a shooter which is why they signed Belinelli. Also said that Rondo will play with Collison, which seems to imply to me that Gay will play 4.

I think Cauley Stein will start and they'll play Gay at the 3.

But that is a VERY talented starting lineup with some solid role players in Collision and Evans. Although there's a bit of turmoil between Cousins and Karl, thus team does have the talent to make noise...not sure they have the strategic discipline to put it to use though

WCS will definitely start. He'll be the main anchor defensively on that team. WCS can play at the 4 or at the 5, don't matter. It also means Boogie doesn't have to exert much energy on defense. Gay will stay at 3, I think. So I imagine Bellinelli is brought to start at the 2.

Don't think Collison starts because both him and Rondo need the ball. To succeed here Rondo really needs to be running the show on the ball. You have him next to a shooter like Bellinelli and it might work.

I completely forgot about Cauley Stein, only reason I assumed what I said is because what I read is they plan to play Rondo with Collison and he asked for Bellineli so it was the only way it made sense.

Why is everyone convinced George Karl will start a rookie?

The man is notorious for not playing rookies.

I suppose there's that

Mark Cuban: "When Chandler Parsons retires hes running sales for all of my companies for me."



Parsons with dem GOAT recruiting skills.

Aldridge to the Spurs.

Fwiw, I did just read that Karl plans to play Gay at the 4 more often this year.

And damn:

Parker
Green
Leonard
LMA
Duncan

Pop said he's going to coach the 5 years he has left also

They are trying to get David West as well

Says the Lebron fan, seems legit.

LeBron worked with scrubs for more than half his career, can't say the same for Pop

Lakers about to sign and trade Hibbert

Good news for Indy that, he wasn't going to start anyway.
