Context friend, lets not forget about that.

Irony.

Jordan Hill was waived by the Wolves. Wouldn't mind bringing him in on a cheap contract as a vet 4/5.

That would be an all-in, right-now move by Ainge. Could make next season very interesting... in the East.

I don't understand why Boston is trying to get both Paul George and Gordon Hayward. Aren't they both SFs? What starting lineup would they use? And wouldn't that pair of acquisitions, plus re-signing IT, put them ludicrously over the cap?

They don't care about the cap. They think they can then convince PG to stay if they win, or at least make the Finals.

Would rather him than Len at his rumored price.

No interest in Hill.

MCW is a FA, I wonder if McD will pursue him as some sort of pseudo Livingston?

Wasn't it reported recently that George said that if the Celtics get Hayward, George would play for the Celtics and consider resigning there? I'm all for it if it screws the Lakers in some way.

They are both SG/SF , it wouldn't make a difference with those two because of their versatility but for what it's worth Geroge started most of the time at SG with CJ Miles at SF and Hayward started at SF with Rodney Hood at SG.
As for the $$$$ , the way I understand it is that IT4 and Hayward become UFAs next summer so wouldn't that mean Celtics can stretch this late into next season before they decide if to extend so the players don''t hit the market and as for George he suppose to be the one year rental thing.

Both Hayward and George are big enough to cover 4's in The current NBA. Hayward is 6'8 and George is 6'9. They'd be just fine next to IT, Bradley, and Horford

Yeah, people were giving Steve Kyler shit for not voting for Draymond. I don't really care who voted for who. Do any of you guys?

Not a whole lot. I was curious to see who made some of the ridiculous votes, like IT on the all defense team. Most of the crazy votes were by just one or two guys, kinda makes you wonder if they even follow. Tyler Ulis got one first team all rookie vote, from Bill Simmons. That was kinda cool.

The Bender vote came from Marcelo Nogueira of Ole, if anyone was wondering.
