    They weren't going to match if they got Millsap, but they missed out on him so now they'll def match.

    He's probably pissed cause now he'll actually have to try and play defense instead of flopping for calls.

    The hilarious part is that even with Aldridge we need a DAMN big.....you'd think part of their Aldridge pitch involved having a big.

    WHERE IS OUR DAMN BIG

    Meh, he never had a chance here with the inconsistent minutes and lineup. He played his best with Ed Davis and they hardly ever played together. Jordan Hill and Lin was a waste since Jordan Hill never rolled in the pick and roll and just popped for the LMA 20+ foot 2 pointer jumper at the top of the key.

    Well they got parsons and wes matthews they're the role players. Dirk is still serviceable and you add deandre to the mix and you got a playoff team

    He's also playing at home and he doesn't have to play with chris paul anymore

    Not a bad choice at all.

    Deandre/dirk/wes/parsons

    Im sure there will be some vets that would play with them for the vets min

    Well, if Jordan is going to Dallas that's not so bad, spreads some talent around the West. And it probably ends the Clippers short little run at contending for a title. Not that they still aren't good, but Jordan was a big part of their success. They even played just fine when Griffin was out injured for a while because they had him. That news makes me feel a bit better today, the Clippers one lost piece closer to being their old selves, just give it time.

    There have been reports that Orlando just doesn't see Harris as a max player and won't match regardless of whether or not they were able to get Milsap.

    I have no idea what you're talking about. How was that EVER possible?


    But I am big time on the Russell train NOW. Love this kid. Kobe has 2 alpha dogs, Russell and Randle, at the least to pass the torch to for being leaders, and feeling good about it. As opposed to the Clown when he was here.

    I rhink that next year when kobe is off the books is when we'll find out the real issue

    Kobe or the FO

    If all of a sudden we have a group of guys that WANT to come here then it just means they didnt wanna be in kobe's shadow.

    If we still strike out its the FO

    He's saying that if we somehow got Aldridge, we'd still need a defensive center like Biyombo or Koufos. Which is obviously possible.

    Not sure if someone responded to you, but click on the media icon. Then paste the link to the twitter page. You can embed a lot of other things too like facebook, YouTube, streamable, etc. If something doesnt work or if you want to add support to another site, just let me know.

    If Mavs want Jeremy Lin, they would most likely have to do a sign and trade for him.

    Anyone they got we want? Just a draft pick would be nice I guess if we're just going to let him walk.

    JJ Barea supposedly closing out a deal though - he's not going to start for them is he?

    OK got it. Subscribe to that. Sounding to me like Biz would be relatively cheap as well. Why is it not done by now?

    LMA isn't willing to play center, he would need assurance that wouldn't happen. We would need to sign Biymobo or Kosta to prove this to him.

    Honestly, DJ coming here and being a senior would allow him to have a voice on the team to be "the man".

    He'll have plenty of plays run for him with type of personnel and offense we run. We need to show him videos of Byron running the offense with CP3 and Tyson.
