When did the Heat sign Rashard Lewis? Jesus. I know he was hurt last year. But the man can shoot.

It was announced in the past couple days.

Eh, he sucks.

Re Minnesota talks, Bulls have liked Luke Ridnour in past. He'd add $ next season but jibe with 2014 plan since deal expires then.

No more than how much rip Hamilton sucked. Except the Heat won't be asking Lewis to start and be the difference between losing in the conference finals and getting to the finals.

strong disagreement on that comparison of players

Same premise. Former all-stars who are no longer all-stars that have been banged up the last few years.

The Trail Blazers and Timberwolves are discussing a deal that would bring Portland free-agent forward Nicolas Batum to Minnesota in exchange for two future first-round draft picks and a veteran small forward acquired from a third team, a league source told ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher.

Korver fits description in this @ricbucher story. http://es.pn/OynrYx

How the hell are you going to do anything in the 2014 off-season if you're paying $45 mil to Rose, Noah and Asik?

Edited by ZoomSlowik

They haven't matched Asik yet so no need to panic.

 

If we can swing a 3 team deal for Wes Mathews....that would be very good.

Rumblings are that they are leaning towards matching.

 

What exactly are you moving for Matthews? You can't trade Asik because he signed an offer sheet. Not sure they'd move Matthews anyways.

That's Batum, not Matthews.

The Bulls can always trade Asik a year from now.

I can't imagine anyone would eat that $15 million year without some serious enticement. If I remember right, Houston only gets dinged at the $8 mil a year average due to some quirk in the CBA.

That's Batum, not Matthews.

 

I'm saying I hope its a 3 way trade: Bulls get Mathews, Portland gets Korver and picks, Wolves get Batum

I seriously doubt Portland gives up their two best perimeter players for Kyle Korver and picks.

 

Edit- Looks like a moot point now, Blazer to match

Edited by ZoomSlowik

Might be other stuff included in the trade. Crazier stuff has happened this year already.

According to KC Johnson the bulls have still not received the offer sheet from the Rockets for Asik. I wonder if Houston is making a play for Howard now

They'd get blackballed if the pulled that bad boy back.

They're not really "pulling it back", today would have been the first day they could submit it.

Dwight tells the new Magic GM he isnt coming back. For realz this time

This article makes a really good point: not enough has been made about how stupid it was for Dwight to opt in. This superteam would have happened if he hadn't done that, the Nets could have just signed him outright and then used all those trade assets to get Johnson.

I just hope Gar/Pax at least made a call to Orlando.

 

We won't know if they did if it never went anywhere, but I feel like we couldn't have in good conscience not at least checked on a price.

 

Something tells me that if Dwight played a year in Chicago, he wouldn't want to leave anymore.
