Would you guys send Ayton to Houston if they redirect Dinwiddie/Allen from Brooklyn to us?

Would Ayton/LaVert/Picks be enough for Houston?

No.

Only way I’m getting Ayton in there is if we come out with Simmons or KAT, and that ain’t happening. Sending Ayton for Dinwiddie is really selling low on him, even if I think he’s a softie

If that is your stance Saucey, then it looks like your only options are to let Ayton walk or resign him to a big contract.

Who the heck is Sam Merill? Sounds like a country music star.

Played at Utah State. Was a hell of a shooter, but a bit slow. I would take a chance on him and bring him in. He's a lot like Luke Kennard with crazy range, but not as good of an athlete.

Was just watching him on the Bucks. He drilled a couple of real nice looking 3s.

I was hoping he would have been undrafted and the Suns would have picked him up. Sounds like he's not going to get cut by the Bucks? Dang.

Yeah, I think they'll be holding on to him.

Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving says he plans to burn sage before every game this season to honor his Native American heritage.

Irving was seen burning sage -- which is known as "smudging'' -- on the court at TD Garden during warm-ups before his Nets beat the Boston Celtics 113-89 on Friday night in the NBA preseason finale for both teams.

"It just comes from a lot of native tribes," Irving said after the game. "Being able to sage, just cleanse the energy, make sure that we're all balanced. When we come into this job, we come into this place, it's not anything that I don't do at home that I did today. I saged last game, and I plan to sage almost every game if the opposing team will allow me to.

Kyrie Irving is your childhood friend who goes to college, takes an Intro to Philosophy course, and the next time you see him he's wearing a Che Guevara shirt and always carrying Kierkegaard.

B.J. Johnson was waived by Miami. Maybe he should have signed here instead. Still don't know why that fell through.

That really sucks. Green loves playing in Houston and he looked like he had made a full recovery from his injury.

He looked quite good in the game I watched against the Bulls.

Are we pretending that Ayton won't be getting that soon?

He’s at least 6 years away from that
