You are probably right bone but the constant hate on McD by those two might just seem like more then two. I think he is a great GM. He is a stud PF away from a real good team. I hope we keep the three guard rotation and run the opposing teams off the court. Every one says we are way too pg heavy. I...

Suns to launch digital network, Rise (It's not what it sounds like): http://www.nba.com/suns/press-release/phoenix-suns-launch-rise-digital-network Still, there's a lot of cool stuff. Finally a post game show available to those of us outside of Phx that use LP Broadband. Read on... PHOENIX – The Pho...

He's lost something, anyway...

I'm getting excited. We're about a month away from real basketball games!

The sad thing is, if he ever quit and started his own site, he probably would see a gigantic drop in traffic. See Chris Sheridan's site for an example of voluntary irrelevancy. Oh, I doubt that seriously. Most people don't even know Grantland is an ESPN property. He launched that thing on his own. ...

Jason Kopono has been out of the league for 2 full seasons. He's 33 so we'll see if he can make a Warriors squad that already has Rush, Livingston, and Barnes backing up the wing spots.

Brandon Hayward?

Crazy to see that his deal is the 5th richest. Kind of surprising.

Rondo is going to miss all of training camp and preseason with a broken hand.

I also think Ennis will be moved but I don't think they will be in a rush to do it. I do think we have assets to make a move if we wanted to. Morris twins, Ennis, Goodwin, a couple of nice picks next year. We couldn't get Ibaka or anything but a guy like Millsap should be available.

I think Tolliver is going to get more minutes than most of you are slotting him for in your estimates. He's a veteran PF who can shoot from distance, a poor man's Frye. I think he will see more than 8 minutes a game. Agree. I said before that I thought he would be the first big off the bench unless...

It's his baby & he's editor in chief but ESPN funded the entire thing. 30 for 30 was also his thing funded by ESPN.

Of course, it should. An active player should not have agent level interest in league personnel. It is a huge conflict of interest. In fact, it could be worse than gambling ties. This is outrageous. I think that has gone the way of the dodo, my friend. Those Miami titles don't happen without it. I ...

Thanks. I'm not too worried about shows being too slow. I worry about them being too poorly written It's hard to keep the writing consistent in an ongoing Tv show. I think BE does it better than most, but it is still hit & miss sometimes. They aren't afraid to kill off a character or two which ...

Cap wrote:So... What's he "going public" about, and when? And does his threat constitute criminal blackmail?

I'd really, really love to know what secrets or inside info he has. He should just do an hour podcast, not under the Grantland banner, and spill it all. I bet it would be amazing.

Sure. .gif it up everybody.

Indy wrote:So by slightly more you mean $1M/year or $2? That's the max, right?

As a 7 year veteran Dragic can sign for up to 30% of the cap which is just shy of $19Mil, but the cap will likely go up again next year.

specialsauce wrote:^ not going to bother to respond to that. Can we please have the function to ignore INF mori?

Good. You guys are both better than that I think. Show more restraint than I have in the past and keep this place fun to be around.

I assume this is a long-term project, and the near term will see him playing PG at most a few minutes a game. It's Milwaukee, what do they have to lose? Well, they can ruin him just like N.O. ruined Austin Rivers. I think you need to be very careful when developing players. Strengthen their weaknes...

May as well change your name to SARCASTER or something. I'm not feeling informed lately.
