I love me both Gasol Hermanos, but Melo is better than Pau. It would have been a devastatingly good fit basketballwise (as would Bosh in Hou), but obviously there are other factors at play.

giving up that much money to be the best east team is pretty silly.

rose is basically an unknown, and their regular season record is pretty much inflated by how hard the coach runs the team.

The Gasol and Noah passing in the low-post is gonna be great to watch. Gonna follow my man Gasol and root for them in the East. I think McBuckets will be a good rookie for them too.

I'm curious to see if Thibs eases off the pedal a bit this season after seeing his players break down year after year. Otherwise, I think people really have to start factoring that tendency of his in when talking about how good of a coach he is, because managing rotations and PT is a pretty important part of coaching.

Yeah, he should have a deeper lineup this season than in the past too (I am assuming they keep Boozer). Hinrich is an okay signing, but they should have gotten Augustin as well and I would like them more. Or they could still another SG or G.

They apparently aren't though.




Makes me wonder who else they still have their eyes on.

dirk is lifetime mav, he's a great player but the mav's have a system that amplify his effectiveness (the article posted earlier does a good job of outlining that)

also the few mill that melo would miss by going to the bulls is pocket change and reduced even further by the increased endorsements he'd get as a winner instead of as a very good player. he could also just ask for more guaranteed money.

the bulls' window of contention isn't that long with how their coach runs that team. melo would get a lot of endorsements from just being a knicks star for life.

Plus minus hates Boozer. As do Bulls fans. Mostly because he is not that good.

if i were an nba star i wouldn't give a damn about my salary as long as its more than say 5 mil/year. i wouldnt be able to spend the money lol. imo it must be so much more rewarding to play in a good team with good players and coaches and in a city you like.

you'd be surprised how easily you can spend the money, your habits automatically adjust to the amount you earn. just human nature for most people, and greed

rockets getting shitted on from all media haha ... we're just bringing back all the ex-rockets. ariza and now dorsey rofl

apparently they had a one million team option for parsons but declined it in order to keep him from reaching free agency one year earlier. a lot of fail

heh i think im a special case though, i cant even spend my 3700 dollar salary as it is.

^ maybe thats why Parsons was so mad with the rockets in his interviews. it sounds incredibly stupid.

I know it's just summer league, but Shabazz Napier has been putting up some pitiful, pitiful numbers. Another night, another 2-14 shooting performance.

i think they care only because you never know how long your career is gonna last. if you take a 2 million contract and then break your leg when you could have taken a 10 million contract, the team sure aint gonna give you anything to make up for it.

but i agree, if i have a car/house, i really dont spend anything other than food. maybe its the culture that these players are from, they need the diamond necklaces and the fancy watches that do nothing except tell you the time.
