New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

Chandler Parsons just signed a 4 year deal with Memphis, stiffing Mark Cuban and the Mavericks.

This is the same Parsons that tried to recruit D'andre Jordan to Dallas last year.

Evan Turner left the Celtics for Portland. Don't think the Celtics are sad.

I'm not sad. He's good though I think C's need someone much better.

Al Jefferson is going to the Pacers. Good addition.

Howard reportedly will meet with the C's. I'm sad at that in itself.

I read a report about a possible Big 4 in Clippers Nation, with KD as the 4th. But I really think it's a long shot.

Because of the increased salary cap, the free agent salaries this year are insane! Mozgov 4 years $64M! The Knicks are looking to give Noah 4 years $70M!

And Bradley Beal gets $130m for 5 years. That's a superstar deal. Wizards cement their young star.

Dwight Howard gets $$70m for 3 years. Still a lot of money who a proven failure. Good luck Hawks, thanks for getting him and not letting Ainge get him.

And look who got Mozgov

The Lakers are a mess. It is amazing that cities like NY and LA can have such bad teams.

Knicks owner James Dolan is the worst.

The Cavs were paying him $4.95M/year. Now there's some extra cap space to go after Wade.

Actually young Jim Buss has to produce or Jeannie will fire him

Poor Hawks - saddled with that loser Dwight Howard. Never hated the Hawks before - but I do now!!!!

 

[WLVCA]

And the Lakers giving big money to Mozgov? What's up with that? That move won't save Jimmy Buss from his sister's wrath.

 

[Steve Williams]

It seems Kupchak is likewise vulnerable

Clippers lost Jeff Green to Orlando today. Clips couldn't sign him with Kevin Durant ready to sign a deal with Doc.

2 straight years of picking at No.2 that should get the Lakers going. This Ingram kid has a lot of promise, could be a superstar in a few years. I can't say that about D'Angelo though, he'll be forever scarred with that sneak video he did to a team mate.

Jeff Green @ $15m?? For doing what?

Clips seem to be capped out, if KD really signs up, the might not have a bench.

 

[Steve Williams]

Is that the Word on the street that Kevin Durant is going to go to the Los Angeles clippers? If so I don't believe that the clippers are going to win him a championship. I also heard that the clippers might trade Blake Griffin for Kevin Durant.

Poor Hawks - saddled with that loser Dwight Howard. Never hated the Hawks before - but I do now!!!!

And he's getting $20m and change a year. What a waste of cap space. So maybe Horford will bite at Ainge's offer to come to Boston.

Here's the news, Steve.

I think KD has better chances to get his first ring with either SA or GS.

 

[Steve Williams]

I agree.
The Clipps just IMO aren't there

 

[WLVCA]

I agree.
The Clipps just IMO aren't there

How dare you say such a thing!!!

Most think KD will go back to the Thunder on a one year deal.

I can just hear it.....

Steve Balmer; "Kevin; if I would have stepped up and bought the Sonics back when I could have you would be playing for me already still in Seattle. I dream about that every night.....you and I should be together. You know with me money is no object......i'll pay a Billion too much to buy what I want. And I can afford it."

Kevin; "Steve, I hear ya. 6 years in OKC has felt like being in prison. I just want to make sure that next year you will find a way to sign my buddy Russell Westbrook. can we move the Clippers to Seattle?"

That's what I heard and hence my question re his signing with the Clipps

One can only imagine how many championships they might have won had the OKC owner stepped up and paid Harden rather than letting him get away

And I heard from my son, who read somewhere that KD has some not so good feelings about leaving his buddy Westbrook. So hear this, Danny Ainge - Sign Horford, sign KD on Sunday (verbally ) and then TRADE for Westbook to come to Boston and give them Isaiah Thomas and 6 of your draft picks you got this year, maybe even throw in 3 picks from last year. OKC can't refuse that. And we've got a team.
