Atlanta and Houston

 

Houston has WAY too much commited for both, though they can get one. You have to remember that through a quirk in the CBA, the AVERAGE of Lin and Asik's contract is used for Houston, whereas if their teams had matched it would have been the actual yearly salaries (I don't get it either). That means that they have close to $30 million commited just between Harden, Lin and Asik.

Does any team have enough cap space that they could make a legit run at both?

 

 

Balta, I think Atlanta could do it. I think the Clippers could dump some pieces and pull it off as well though. Dallas has enough room for 1 player.

And this is what I get for listening to Rotoworld.

 

Atlanta is the best opportunity for them to play together. I could totally see Sterling messing this up too and losing Paul, which would be both a travesty, because the Clippers are fun to watch, and hilarious simply because they are a perpetual circus.

The only way the Clippers could do it is a sign-and-trade with the Lakers. Even without Paul, they have $45 million commited next year, which doesn't leave them enough for one "mini-max" much less the "mega-max" these two can get. They can use the amnesty to "dump" one guy (Jordan), but Griffin and Butler would still be major obstacles.

 

A sign-and-trade with Blake and Bledsoe would be pretty great for the Lakers, but I still seriously doubt they'd facilitate Dwight going to their in-building rival.

 

 

Itd be a tough spot for the Lakers.

 

Blake is better than nothng.

Yeah, I don't know how Rotoworld thinks Houston will do it. They need to clear more space just to get one of them. Paycuts? Those would have to be pretty sizeable ones, and I generally don't assume that's going to happen (stupid Heat).

How does this f***ing loser keep getting jobs? http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/22815...f-Rivers-Leaves

An early version of draft pick tanking?

@WojYahooNBA: If Celtics and Clippers can finalize a deal that includes Doc Rivers, Kevin Garnett will waive his no-trade clause, league sources tell Y!

Sounds like it would be Deandre Jordan and two 1st-rounders for Garnett, Rivers. That's a win for Celts, if you ask me. They were going to lose Doc anyway and KG has to be close to retirement.

Huge win for Boston, they need to start rebuilding quick.

If it keeps CP3, then it rapidly becomes a win for the Clips too though.

This, absolutely.

 

What's the deal with this Griffin/Dwight rumor that was on Sportscenter this am?

The Clippers are preparing to move on without Doc Rivers and could offer their coaching job to Lionel Hollins or Brian Shaw.

Manu starting tonight. Interesting move, as they've been winning in spite of him for quite a while. He makes the Wade/Bosh struggles look like nothing

Coach Pop > me

DANNY GREEN SUPERSTAR

lol at LeBron whining

Spurs are just getting way better shots, and even when they do get to the rim the Heat aren't finishing (at least 5 point-blank misses in the second half).

Just gotta take one in Miami. Come on San Antonio, you can do it!

Refs trying to get this game tight. Two total BS calls on Diaw.

This game is fun.

So, Green for Finals MVP?

He would have to be the favorite at this point. He would have to be one of the worst, if not the worst, finals MVP ever.

One more.
