My biggest issue with Jabari is... where will he find playing time? We just let a pretty good role player go in Jerebko. Jabari is going to want to start or at minimum, be 6th man but only for a year. So, he eats into Thabo's and Crowder's minutes, basically at the '4'. I'm open to it. I think...

I just don't see it yet, of course, I spent most of last night watching Rubio highlights. Especially that Game 3 of the Thunder series. Magic. Just can't see Allen doing anything at that level yet.

Udoh is certainly not going anywhere. Bradley has been too soft to the rim IMO. Still think he's relying on size too much. Niang has shown flashes but nothing that is an improvement over Jerebko. I'd rather see him 2-way this year while we take a gamble on an RFA for a year or two. Money isn't...

Uh... what?

So. Um. Is Niang ready for that stretch 4 spot? Cuz.. I'm starting to think he might be pushing Jerebko out of the picture.

I liked Jerebko, but felt he came up short more often than not. I'd be open to Niang taking that spot. He looked good yesterday.

If this precludes us from keeping Rubio long-term, I'm rioting. I really hope there was an option or two attached.

Dante... should it be strange we haven't heard more about that? Someone correct me if I'm wrong: Qualifying offers and RFA... how it works is, you make him a QO at a predetermined amount, (roughly $5 mil, in this case) and that gives you the rights to match any offer. If he doesn't get offered...

Interesting that this is the first concrete reporting of Favors meeting other teams. Of course, there really wasn't a need to play the leverage game. I think both parties know and understand each other to not have to resort to that.

We're a 50+ win team as currently constructed and no major injuries. I'm not mad and completely looking forward to next year. Individual guys have to get better though. Let's see Mitchell and Royce take a step. I'd love to see the other rotation guys improve too. There's a track record of guys...

Honestly, this could very well be LeBron's last NBA contract payday, so he's preparing to lay roots for his post-playing career. He'll be 34 next year and 37 in the last year of this deal (if he sees it through). No one beats Father Time. I still think our window is in another couple years...

I think the unspoken thing about these meetings are that they can turn into venting sessions and need to be 100% open on both sides. Sometimes it can be very productive to air things out and sometimes it's just an honest coming to terms on roles and things. Hoping to hear something today but...

Booker come home plz. We should be seeing some sort of Favors update soon. They started around noon EST, right?

No. At the VERY LEAST we'll match his current salary for a year or two.

LeBron is definitely staying East now. I have a feeling he is in 'prove it' mode with the Lakers, who are failing majestically. I'm betting he does another small 1+1 or so. Also, I think the Lakers have the ability to throw an offer Exum's way. Remember who LA's GM is now? Yeah... And they'll...

Came here JUST to say this. If they lose Reddick, it's going to be ugly.

Not for $15 a year. Happy for the guy finally getting 'a' payday, but that's his last big contract unless he plays really well. Starting to think Phoenix is going to challenge for a playoff spot under Igor and very soon. Theme emerging: Lots of iffy looking deals for teams tight on money. Could...

So... are all the big time stars angling for 2019 and 2020 dollars? Projections call for a huge jump in salary cap again. KD might be shooting for his last long-term max taking him into his mid-30's. (Currently 29 years old) LeBron could easily spend a year or two in LA while getting a...

I've been thinking about it since the end of the season. On one hand, we've heard nothing but the very best things about him as a person since he got here, so why be worried fame and fortune will go to his head? On another note, he's been out of Utah for at least a month and a half? Game 5 was...

He made the team for the upcoming FIBA qualifiers this week. USA plays Mexico and Cuba.
