makes sense but :russ: hope ORL dont accept whatever hou will offer now let his ass stay in ORL

They don't want him in Orlando.

The Organization still seems to want to keep him but the fan base definitely wants his ass gone (but not to Brooklyn).

Grizzlies in trade talks with Timberwolves to land a guard, source says » The Commercial Appeal
The Grizzlies have engaged the Minnesota Timberwolves in trade talks in hopes of acquiring one of three guards, according to a source with knowledge of the discussions.

Memphis has interest in Wayne Ellington, Wesley Johnson or Martell Webster – each of whom have reportedly been made available.

Ellington likely is the Grizzlies' main target because of his salary. The 6-4 guard will earn a little more than $2 million this season. Johnson will make $4.2 million and Webster’s deal is for $5.7 million.

Ellington, 24, averaged 41-percent shooting in three seasons with Minnesota. He’s a career 38-percent three-point shooter. Johnson, 25, shot 40 percent overall and 34 percent from beyond the arc in two NBA seasons. Webster, 25, is a seven-year veteran who spent the last two seasons averaging 41-percent shooting (37 percent from three-point range) for Minnesota.

Conventional wisdom suggests that the Griz would try to use Dante Cunningham in a deal given they re-signed forwards Darrell Arthur and Marreese Speights.

Um, deal. Don't even care who you pick. Take all 3 if you can't decide.

All this talk about Howard -- what do you think will be the frenzy if Kevin Love puts up a trade demand?
Lamarcus might be up for grabs if the Blazers start poorly, Iggy has yet to be discussed, 76ers got rid of Brand for a reason.

The Denver Post reports the Denver Nuggets have a five-year, $50 million offer on the table to center JaVale McGee and so far he's not willing to accept it.

McGee's agent is obviously seeing the max deals given to Roy Hibbert and Brook Lopez and he wants to get that, too.

McGee is likely come around as no other team is willing to give him anything close to a $50 million offer sheet. Also it's doubtful he'll take the one-year qualifying offer to become a free agent next summer.
Is this nikka serious? :why:
