He's singed to a minimum contract next year too.

I'd have to think he could ask for an extension after this year, no?

Basically, you need to have a 4 year contract to get an extension, and in 2 years he won't have bird rights (unless they wanted to get him for the MLE, but that ain't happening). So basically they have him for 2 years and then will need to bid on him the same way as everyone else.

Someone please violently dunk on the arcade fire dude

He is way taller than you would expect the dude from arcade fire to be, so I don't see it. I suppose he could be the Shawn Bradley of the celebrity game, but I don't think Common and Nick Cannon are the ones to climb that mountain. Can the dude from 42 jump? Someone invite an NFL receiver or something so this can happen.

Wasn't TO in a few celeb games a few years ago? I'd like to see other athletes join in on it although I'm sure there are contract clauses that would consider it "a risk".

Is there any way that it would make sense for them to end up with Deron Williams?

Edit: I am pretty sure they are not trading him and the bobbleheads were recalled because they kept tearing people's ACLs.

I'd say because Denver is having an everything must go sale, but I don't know how it would work salary wise unless a lot of players got moved around.

It'd be news to me if there were trade rumors about him, but Morey is always looking to make moves so you never know

The most likely suspects for trade are probably Terry, Shved and Brewer, though I'd hate to see Brewer go. I really like him as a Rocket

My point wrt per 36 for rim protectors is that staying in the floor is a skill when you are being aggressive on defense.

Ahh, yeah, fouls per (whatever rate) is an important thing to keep in mind, but by leaving it up to per game you're kinda assuming a tight connection with defensive fouls limiting mpg, when there could be a fair amount of statistical wiggle depending on what's happening with pace, what's going on at the offense side of the floor, coaching choices, etc

No it's probably just that thing. Apparently they already screwed up a Clyde Drexler bobblehead earlier this year. But it is almost the trade deadline, and Daryl Morey is in charge of the whole thing, so.

Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett moving around in the last few years has done wonders to provoke eastern conference rivalries. The Nets, Raptors, and Wizards dislike each other a lot lately and it makes for passionate games, good luck to your viewing experience :]


edit: in case anyone was wondering as of the BKN v Trailblazers game cheapest Nets tickets were ~$12 and Knicks were still $50 minimum

Bev's defense isn't so good as to make him untouchable, but man, Canaan manages to have even worse court vision than him so I'm pretty sure I'd want any trade involving Bev to have a PG coming back

quote:

here’s what Silver said to the Comcast Sportsnet Bay Area Golden State broadcasting team while being interviewed during last night’s thrilling Warriors win over Dallas:

“Ultimately we want to see your best teams in the playoffs. And there is an unbalance and a certain unfairness. There is a proposal (from one of the broadcasters)… where the division winners would all automatically go into the playoffs and then you’d seed the next 10 best teams. I think that’s the kind of proposal we need to look at. There are travel issues of course, but in this day in age every team of course has their own plane, travels charter. I don’t think the discussion should end there. And as I’ve said, my first year I was studying a lot of these issues and year two is time to take action. It’s something I’m going to look at closely with the competition committee. I do think it’s an area where we need to make a change.”
