    Don't even get me started on our draft pick for next year. That legit makes my blood boil. What on God's green earth are you smoking to give up a top 5 protected only 1st round pick for a 40 year old PG with back issues?

    That might honestly be one of the dumbest things Mitch has ever done. Check that, it is the dumbest thing Mitch has ever done. We've been very very fortunate not to be burned by that, next year though....

    Ok I'm done. Blood is at the boiling point.

    The point of that post: Competitive teams got all the top players. Lottery teams get Carlos Boozer and David Lee.

    1. Gerald Green, KJ McDaniels and Kosta Koufos

    2. Gerald Green, KJ McDaniels, Biz and Aaron Books

    3. Gerald Green, KJ, Javale, Aaron Brooks and re-sign Ellington

    We have options with our cap space and we would be wise to spend it to fill out the roster with role players that can help our young core come along.

    I disagree completely guys. We can't give up! Lamarcus gave a verbal commitment but he hasn't officially signed anything yet. We can't use our cap space yet. We need to hold out and beg for another meeting!

    I don't get how they can sign and trade when they are over the cap?

    This is ridiculous. 3 million for Biz and we can't fork that out? That David Lee trade seems more and more likely.

    A) players don't do that. B) an agent would never allow that. C) Lakers can't reduce themselves to that and lose the fraction of credibility they have left.

    We're making a trade. Almost guaranteed at this point because otherwise we'd have made a move on a FA as soon as Aldridge committed.
