$4M for Hickson's 1-year contract.

And ~$3M/yr for 3 years really isn't that outrageous for Gerald Green. The guy finally proved himself to be an NBA player in his stint with the Nets last season.

Now I'm wondering who in the hell we're going to get to back up Kemba. He'll be the only PG on the roster after DJ is traded. I hope you have some iron in your blood KW.

If it weren't for Lin, you'd be right there in the lottery too.

Picking for somebody else.

But Lin was basically a draft pick pick for the Knicks. They gonna find another guy who's been cut by every team to take the league by storm. Maybe James White or Prignoli?

I like the sound of Flightsanity. Pablo needs a better tag though.

Dunlap is really gonna try and fuck it up.

Cho needs to ink this deal with Jamison to secure the Tank

Real talk: Who was the last team to INTENTIONALLY tank two years in a row? I can't even remember, the last intentional tank was the Spurs, right?

Sonics? Kings? Wizards? Pistons (sorta)?

On a thoroughly uninteresting note, OKC is at its 15 player roster limit already.

Signed undrafted rookie Hollis Thompson today, signed Thabeet as a third center, and drafted Perry Jones III.

On the bright side, no more Fish. He filled in admirably, but I'm thrilled to have Maynor back.

Michael... talk to him please. Tell him flopping don't make the world work. Make the guy have some respect for the game.

Was just thinking this... funny how Mike would cheat by mushing a player for a rebound or off a crossover.. and LBJ does that..

Yeah Antwon can definitely command the tank. Doesn't he live in Charlotte in the offseason. Seen him in the city a couple of times.

Sonics had rookie Durant though, they were a bad team trying to improve.
Kings was the same thing, but they had Tyreke. They should be better but they're money-constrained.
Wizards had too many players that were dumb (Blatche/McGee)
Pistons just overpaid the wrong guys.

Corey Maggette was a massive facilitator of DAT TANK. At least with him gone maybe it won't be intentional now.

Rockets are open to the three-team deal in which they would receive Lakers center Andrew Bynum with Howard going to the Los Angeles Lakers, but are primarily working directly with the Magic to acquire Howard, the individual with knowledge of the talks said.

Getting in position for the planned next move will be difficult. To create enough cap room for the kind of blockbuster trade that has been proposed, the Rockets are considering making veteran forward Luis Scola an amnesty cut, likely in the next 48 hours, a person with knowledge of the move said. That would create enough cap room for the Rockets to take on the additional contracts necessary to complete a trade for Howard.

Scola, 32, is due $21 million guaranteed over the next three season. The Rockets could wait until July 17 to make Scola an amnesty cut, in which he would receive his full guaranteed salary but not count against the salary cap or luxury tax figures, but received information that he would have a better chance of moving to a stronger team if the move was made quickly.


...
The Rockets’ sign-and-trade deal with New York, with Marcus Camby signing with the Knicks and New York sending the Rockets guard Toney Douglas, Josh Harrellson and Jerome Jordan, and two second-round pick, was also approved. Harrellson will join the Rockets summer league team today.

The trade is not considered complete until the players involved all pass their physicals, forcing the Rockets to hold off on signing Jeremy Lin and Omer Asik to offer sheets. The Knicks have said they will match Lin’s offer sheet, with New York coach Mike Woodson saying on Wednesday he is the Knicks starting point guard. The Bulls are expected to match Asik’s offer sheet. That deal is not expected to impact the pursuit of Howard, no matter what the Bulls decide.

Scola is probably going to get amnestied within the next 48 hours.
