NBA Season 2016/17

@barbarian Not a huge fan of the D Rose to Bucks rumours. Brogdon and Delly are better to be building around I reckon.
I'm hearing that Jazz are looking to offload Favors. Gobert really needs to stop being foul prone and provide a more reliable scoring threat.
So it looks like a three team sign and trade deal is done that has Gallinari going to the Clippers on big money, Jamal Crawford and Diamond to the Nuggets and Hawks get a 2018 draft pick and cash. Man Crawford has played for a bunch of teams in his career.
@raznomore apparently CJ Miles in a trade possibility to go to OKC. It's only chatter, but that would add a very nice piece.

ACT- depends the price we pay for Rose. If we can get a bargain then great, I think he could fit in nicely. If not then I'm happy to leave him alone.
Man the west looks so hot next year. Outside of the Lakers, Phoenix and maybe the Mavs and Pelicans, every team has a live playoff chance. You'd sort them into three tiers:
The untouchables (Warriors)
Probables (Rockets, Spurs, OKC)
Possibles (Blazers, Clips, Kings, Jazz, Nuggets, Grizzlies, Wolves) -
@barbarian good list there.
Clippers with all those new players to join what's left of the core - Griffin, Jordan, Reddick and Rivers - will be really interesting.
Gallinari should start with Blake and Jordan, then I'd have JJ and Beverley at the guards. Not a bad lineup right there.

@barbarian I hadn't read that yet. Good move by Brett Brown to get a reliable shooter to spread the floor for Ben Simmons and Fultz.
Some intrees ting developments over the last few days, Kelly Olynyk signed with the Heat, Warriors sign Swaggy P and Zaza to one year deals, Harden signs a massive 4 year $118m extension, and in an extremely surprising move (and price) the Knicks sign Tim Hardaway Jnr to a 4 year $71m contract. I'm a fan of Timmy Jnr but that is overs. He's a streaky player that showed some signs of being a little more consistent, but he's not there yet. Plus he's going back to a team he was at only a few years ago. Strange.

Hardens contact was just over 200 million...'

Yes, not sure what happened in my post, that should've been $228m not $118m.

Peyton has the personality of an amoeba so I'm not surprised that went down so well.
It was brilliant. Durant really fucked it up... his people will be traumatised. He should have just done a little half smile and let it go. Now his reaction has made it go viral.
And the joke was hilarious as it was soooooo accurate.
Durante mum laughed and so did Westbrooks wife. -
@Baron-Silas-Greenback I agree that KD's reaction made it funny but Manning's Southern drawl doesn't help the delivery.

Minnesota really starting to piece together a decent core of a roster with the signings of Jeff Teague and Taj Gibson.
Jimmy Butler, Andrew Wiggins, Karl Anthony Towns, Taj Gibson, Jeff Teague, Tyus Jones, Brandon Rush, Gorgui Dieng, Cole Aldrich - is a good solid front nine.

@ACT-Crusader They look good to jump into the 8 now.
Only thing that worries me with that team is Jimmy Butler. He has a bit of a cancerous personality.

He didn't like the direction that Fred Hoiberg was taking Chicago and apparently voiced his displeasure. He respects Thibs so will more likely stay in line

@ACT-Crusader It appears that Thibodeau is creating the Bulls mk2.

With similar lack of quality outside shooting
