I like Leuer a lot. His playing time drastically decreased when Watson took over. I doubt we'll see Jon back.
Go Suns!

I noticed that, too.
Hope Watson and management has a change of heart.
But it's not a deal breaker ...
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

We don't need anything. If nobody is moved and I had my way, Bledsoe-Booker start, then Knight and Ulis off the bench. Archie gets whatever is left unless he is beaten by Jenkins or something from the summer league. If Booker's body is mature enough, let him spend some time at SF.

https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/748969009580691456 Delly's real deal, Cap. ;) 4/38 from the Bucks. That's almost $10M a year for an o.k. back-up PG. Yeah, Knight's deal is just fine.

I would be fine with a guard rotation of:

PG - Bledsoe / Price / Ulis
SG - Booker / Goodwin

I guess we might lose Price in FA; I would be fine with keeping him if he'll play for a reasonable salary.

Knight and PJ to the Kings for Gay and McLemore. Maybe look to a guy like Gerald Henderson or see if KMart or Afflalo want to come off the bench for 8-10 mil a year. Greivis would be on my list as well. Maybe Randy Foye.

I'm not interested in having McLemore on this team.

I'm in the emergency room recovering from the heart attack I suffered reading Cap's prank post. This helps a bit.

And how about them bucks! What a busy but weird off-season for them so far.

On what planet is Mike Conley worth $30M/yr? Steph Curry has to be absolutely irate right now.

It means the Thunder are desperately trying to move Kanter right now.
