    Lol and "requesting to visit Sacramento" tells you a lot haha ... Just unbelievable how Rondos value went downhill that quickly in half a year.

    PG-13 and Ellis would be a nice 1-2 punch

    nice job by the pels, locking up davis at a time when it seemed he was more likely to wait and get an even bigger payday. good insurance for him against major injury, though.

    davis is one of the few in the league who's worth more than whatever he can be paid. that good, imo.

    I'd be very surprised if he left ATL. Better situation, better team, better fit. He was ATL's number one priority this summer. With as highly as each speaks about the other, I think he'll be back.


    Good for him. Now let's see what happens with Wade.

    The numbers on some these contracts are insane... 145 million for a Davis? Isn't he 22 or 23?

    He is a stud though.. so, good for him.

    Odd there's not much Wade chatter from all these reporters.

    I just heard that Wade has never been the highest paid player on the Heat.

    Man, Tristan Thompson took a gamble last year and it paid off. ~30mil more than what the Cavs offered last year. Wow

    He made a ton of money off of Love's injury.

    Are the Cavs gonna break the record set by the Nets in terms of payroll + luxury tax paid for one season? Kyrie, Sideshow Bob, Thompson, Love, and eventually Bron making HUGE dollars. That's insane.

    Dan paying the tax while we have cap and getting a piece of the tax money.

    What goes around comes around.

    So much for being a "small market" team unable to field a roster full of stars.

    Let the Cavs keep spending and getting to the finals with no wins.

    Kings continue to surprise me...at how incompetent they are.




    We literally just saw Monta and Rondo fail to work together.

    Monta + Rondo in Sac means Boogie would want out by the trade deadline.

    Go for it Vlade! :D
