I can be at peace with this because I liked watching Utah, though it sucks they usually have later games.

If this is a salary dump I will be kinda pissed. Though if it is it almost certainly means they are going to go after Lowry.

East is going to be RREEEAAAALLLLYYYY bad y'all.

They must have a deal done with someone, surely they aren't planning to start Tyus. George Hill would be the best fit but Lowry sounds like the interested party.

Who will be interested? Could be a cheaper alternative to Livingston as a shooting challenged floor general, probably still has defensive value if engaged and in a good system. Not shooty enough for Cleveland, maybe GS or Minnesota? How did he get on with Thibs back in Boston?

hahahaha this sucks. A lovely team like the Pacers will now be in the race for the 8th seed because the East is sooooooooooo bad.

Salary dumping Ricky Rubio then signing Rondo, notable for having the same strengths and weaknesses as Rubio but just worse, would be pretty depressing.

Yeah I probably wouldn't read a ton into it. Even the tweet I posted said something like "This could change at any time."

rondo is a far better finisher than ricky rubio

E: rondos last year was his worst fg% within 3 ft. it would be ricky rubios 2nd best

The Wolves don't have a pick next year so I suppose I'm ultimately ok with that.

A whole pound for Rubio seems like a good deal, so that opens Minny's cap to add a PG and fill out the bench

There were rumblings yesterday that Lowry might take a bit if a discounted deal in the right spot so maybe he'll do that here and leave us enough room to get a mid-tier guy as well. Wolves have roughly 35 mil in space right now

Paracaidas: Sep 24, 2016; Consistently Tedious!

This clears Minnesota out of Stepien problems (still needing to convey the Adrien Payne pick), but I sure as hell hope Thibs and Layton have someone lined up to use this space on.

And that it isn't Hill. Or Millsap.

Aldridge will join David West and Rodman and be the only 3 dudes who didn't like playing for the Spurs.

who's even available that can fill Iguodala's role on the Warriors if he leaves? I guess they can promote McCaw into those sixth man minutes but that's still a downgrade
