    Let's not get too crazy with this rhyming trend, when Boron's fired, let it end.

    Strange they pulled it. It was a hoopshype link saying we talked to Hawks about Teague.

    Speaking of the Hawks

    NICE.

    I would love to get Teague. Yeah I know we've got our front court of the future, but Teague is a former All-Star on one of the league's friendliest contracts. A rotation of Teague/Russell/Clarkson is AWESOME. In a year or two we'd have the league's most dynamic backcourt even without Russell Westbrook.

    You mean backcourt.

    Teague is solid, but half the player Westbrook is. But since Horford is available let's do that for Hibbert's expiring contract and any of the other players they want not named Russell, Randle, Clarkson, Nance.

    He's also a fraction of the cost and the kind of player others might look into joining this summer while being under contract for a couple more years. :)

    I'd love either of them.

    Also no, I meant what I said! Teague at Center! #Byronrotations

    Teague would be a solid addition but that might dig into DLo's development. Give me Horford though.

    I think it'd be great for D'Angelo not to have the pressure of being the primary ball carrier this season. He's admitted to struggling at times to understand the point guard position.

    Under a good coach, I think it's a great idea.

    Under this coach D'Angelo might never play again...

    Another ballhandler is one of the latest needs of this roster .

    A PNR partner for DLO and a 3 and D at the SF position are the priorities.

    Actually talent is the highest priority.

    I'll take whatever talent I can get. Unless you know of any 3 and D wings that are available and obtainable like Teague is?

    Tobias Harris is available. I would rather get him than Teague. I don't want another point guard on this roster that will force Byron to bench D-Lo.

    Teague is nice, but that's only if we're going to be getting rid of Russell, Clarkson and Randle for Demarcus Cousins...and we're trading Hibbert for Horford. I don't want Teague on a rebuilding team as he'll serve no purpose on this squad.
