Man, just think if you could pair the two up some how... Can Cousins play pf? The Kings are banking on it, as they want to pair him with WCS. Cousins certainly has uncharacteristic mobility for that size, but if opposite teams move him around with a pick and roll stretch 4, his conditioning will be...

Trade ideas for Markieff: Wizards - would give them a 3 big rotation of Nene, Gortat, Markieff Jazz - likewise, Jazz could play him with favors or Gobert Raptors - upgrade over Patrick Patterson Kings - good fit alongside Cauley-stein and cousins Trailblazers - upgrade over Ed Davis Timberwolves - c...

As for the Suns, I think they'll be fighting for the 8th seed with Dallas and utah. Of the last few years, this will be the easiest 8th seed to grab. There is 5 legit contenders(warriors, thunder, clippers, rockets, Spurs) one pseudo contender(Grizzlies) and one future contender(Pelicans). And no re...

I'm surprised how highly some of you think of the twolves. They have a bright future, but they were a bad team last year. In fact they were the worst team in the NBA. They won 16 games, I'll be surprised if they win more than 32. They are still at least 1 year away, probably 2

I like this idea.

You could make a case for rockets and grizz in tier 1, I just think the other 4 teams are a step above. Also Pelicans might be their own tier, I dont think they're a contender, but they'll be a playoff team

With rosters pretty much taking form I think we've got 4 tiers in the west

Contenders:
Warriors
Spurs
Clippers
Thunder
Borderline Contenders
Rockets
Grizzlies
Fighting for last two spots
Pelicans
Jazz
Suns
Mavs
Lottery
Blazers
Kings
Twolves
Nuggets
Lakers

Lou Williams to LA 3yr 21 million

It seems like this organization is trying to be competitive now so I wouldn't doubt a patchwork type of move. I'm not sure where the hastiness is coming from. Well sure. We've missed the playoffs for 5 straight seasons. It just seems like instead of getting back to it naturally as a reward of the r...

Lee wouldn't be bad. We'd need an asset coming back to take that salary. Tucker for Lee and Looney? Trade Markieff for a wing

Maybe Tyson Chandler would rather play for the clippers now. Can We come to a mutual agreement?

He's kinda like Jamal Mashburn, hasn't shown ability to create for others though

All those teams besides Philly have more talent than LA. In fact all those teams were better than LA this last year. What's their starting 5? Clarkson-Russell-kobe-randle-hill. With young off the bench. That's bad, really bad. Knicks have a decent eastern team actually. Calderon-afflalo-melo-lopez. ...

Ya, I can't imagine there being more than one team worse than LA next year, they might just keep it again.

Rockets would have a tough time making it work financially. They'd almost definitely have to give up Trevor Ariza

Wouldn't LMA be a center on lakers anyway, at least part time. I guess Jordan hill can start, but Randle is definitely a 4

Pretty sure we can sign and trade Tucker and Goodwin for Chandler. Just sign LMA outright and keep Markieff or move him for something else

This is a really good article about our cap situation and how we could fit both LMA & Chandler. I don't think it's possible to operate as an "over the cap" team because it requires Portland AND Dallas to be willing trade partners which would divest us of players AND picks but also ope...

Not sure how a Parker-Monroe frontcourt is going to be defensively, but it's an interesting move

I'm pretty stunned. My friend texted me about Chandler. My intial thought was "I really like Tyson Chandler" my 2nd thought was "He finally got a leader" my 3rd thought was "He can't play with Len". Also great mentor for len and great pick and roll player. That was alw...
