ESPN sources say that the Celtics have agreed to send Gerald Wallace to the Warriors for David Lee

[Killakobe81]

Not a horrible trade but if that was the plan why not get West before SPURS?AND how do Sullinger and Lee fit?

[Killakobe81]

Miss the Wallace part thought it was just a salary dump ...does he have anything left?

west turned more money down from cavs,wizards, gs to play with spurs

Thank God, I thought he might come here, I'd never hear the end of it.

No, and hasn't for many, many years.

[baseline bum]

It is a salary dump, it saves them $5 million in salary and at least $7.5 million in luxury tax payouts. Wallace is finished, he'll probably never wear an NBA uniform again after this season.

[baseline bum]

I'm surprised to see them just dump Lee like that. They might have lost the Finals without him and the competition looks a lot tougher for Golden State this year with a stronger Spurs, a stronger Cavs, and then the return of Durant and OKC.

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

Genuinely thought the Warriors could have done better trading Lee. Quite a few teams left that could absorb his contract into cap space or send back someone better than Wallace at less than $10mil.

Edit : Utah, Indiana, Phoenix, Philly, Blazers...

This. The margin for error got smaller and Lee absolutely gave them a spark they lacked the first two games.

[Killakobe81]

LOL

[D-Wade]

Wow. Lee is the type of guy you want against West and Diaw. And to get basically nothing in return :lol

[Spur-Addict]

I thought they would've done him a solid and put him on a halfway decent roster. I was wrong :lol

[Red Hawk #21]

So the Dubs traded a guy who used to put up 20 and 12 for essentially nothing. Fucking stupid.

[baseline bum]

I forgot about the stretch provision when they waive Wallace: this deal saves them $5 million in salary and $20 million in luxury tax.

[lmbebo]

Wallace is done. Salary savings for Warriors. Can't afford to pay who they are paying with Lee on the payroll. Not an instrumental part of there team once Lee got injured. He saved there team ironically enough in finals. Plus Lee wanted out I believe. Wants to be playing, etc. If kept his current situation any longer, he probably doesn't earn another high paying contract.

[SPM]

Miss the Wallace part thought it was just a salary dump ...does he have anything left?
No he doesn't. Which is why he will agree to terms with your Lakers in a couple days.

[TimDunkem]

Wallace used to be a double-double guy too. What the hell happened to him? His drop off was sudden. I'm surprised he's even still in the league.

[Thread]

Good point. Your first since, well, your first. But, there was more than just a passing conversation twixt Lee and Kerr and the FO on playing time and team stature for Lee. You can bet your bottom dollar on that. Being white and calm innately West kept his mouth shut and soldiered, but, beneath that white veneer he was incensed, livid and ready to go native, Indian or black.

Good for them but how does that help them repeat? Can they sign someone with that savings even if they are over the cap? Spur fan should know dat shit aint easy. Lebron will be back OKC should be healthy and now Spurs have re-loaded.

And of course in his salad days he'd just lay in wait for us and Kobe then just play balls to the wall for 48 minutes, like Artest would do.

They can use the mini MLE if they feel like paying a $1.75 per dollar luxury tax on it, which is a lot cheaper than keeping Lee would have been.

[ducks]

it was a thank you for lee to get playing time but gs could have done better then wallace

[lmbebo]

Lee was a dump by GS. No one was going to help Golden State save money.

It was like Spurs dumping Richard Jefferson, except that Lee is still capable of playing.

[8FOR!3]

I'm happy with the idea of not having to play against David Lee coming off the bench in the playoffs. I get that it's dumping a salary, but he can still play a really good role. Is that a salary that really needed to get dumped for a scrub?

[Killakobe81]

RJ at minimun is good value for Mavs problem was when you guys had ghim he made way to much in fact he (IIRC) made way more than Timmy did last year and obviously more than David west will ...

LOL, NBA players union.

Dudes like RJ, Luke Walton, Reggie Jackson get overpaid while Tim and Dirk take paycuts to win ... smh

You're taking it back now. I remember once a upon a time ago when he was the best shooting guard in the league after Jordan hung them up.

Yep.

Yep, he's frozen in fear, shell shocked. The longer you look at the Chandler signing the more it smells. LMA was never close to coming here. He gave you hand down probably on order from headquarters, but, it was all show. You want to be respected, to be competitive, and you're not.

I'm tickled, ill, and what's more? I'm tickled pink.

I'm just wondering if there was a backup plan after LMA said "no". The way things look it doesn't seem like it.

For a short while he was but hi decline was steep once he was in it ... He was a shell on our 2000 title team ... but the RunTMC version and the Kings version (pre-decline) was a beast ...I also saw him in college (kstate) was a helluva player full package: post, jumper, creator defender solid as his nickname just too short for my taste

Yeah, we signed him after a 15.5 ppg campaign. He couldn't function in the lights. Just sad. Bootie hole? Water tight, ill. A pin, ill, you know the straight pin with the little top on it. Hitched up a 20 mule team to the little top off the old "Death Valley Days" set there in Hollywood, tried to drag that pin outta Mitch's ass. Couldn't budge it. Maybe a 1/4", no more.

come on Limit, be classy. If it was all a fluke Pop wouldnt go out of his way to fortify your Spurs. They are the champs. Respect it. All champs get some good luck or do injuries to OKC mean your own 5th is tainted? Or how about the 1st?

Spurs were the best team in 2014 (and 1999)

No, they stood in the sun for 72 hours, the local Media went bananas. They were hoping he'd wait for yesterday, but, Pop had other ideas and he went on Saturday so they didn't get the full weekend into Monday afternoon here.

But, he wasn't the answer here, ill. He wasn't. He was just shiny and well behaved. That's why everybody jumping on the Lakers are just as silly. LMA wasn't fit for Los Angeles. We just saw the commotion and like white men are apt to do we run right for it.

Yeah I know that. The smart thing to do would be to continue to rebuild this roster instead of acting hasty and cutting the rebuild short. I think Sarver is getting impatient because the Suns have missed the playoffs for 5 straight years.

Yeah, but, in reality big deal, you weren't going to compete for the ring anyway. You have to rid the team of the bad guys like we've talked, you still have Morris, PJ and Bledsoe. They know it, but, they don't want to face it, the reality and the embarrassment. Until you do that the rebuild is impossible.

Mitch didn't come to the Lakers until 2002. Logo had a deal in place to trade Eddie Jones to the Kings straight up for Richmond in 1998. Dr. Buss veto'd that trade. Mitch was still and all-star caliber player at the time... he had a knee injury in 2000 and took a sharp decline after that. By the time we got him he was 36. I personally think the veto of that trade and bringing on Jeannie giving her head position is what led Logo to leave. No way I would have given the keys to my empire to a Playboy Playmate. Her first order of business was to fuck the newly hired head coach.

Luva is correct, the 15.5 (it was 16.2) was eye candy. Me? I was all over it.

こんにちは forum,

I am waiting for that special someone. Luva has dated and been disappointed by the offerings out there, to many women seem to care only about comparing me to ohter guys they have dated, and then they don't hang around long enough to really get to know the silky smoothness of Luva.

I've tried the dating website thing, but those girls are often guys, and I've been embarrassed at least once, well into a date when the truth rudely flops out. pokes out or, on one occasion, is "formally introduced" to me.

I would like to keep it simple though, Japanese women only and even then I am not interested in fat ones. You can be fat on your own time, that's fine, I don't have anything against you, I just like my softness in specific areas, not all over.

Let me break it down for you though:

I am a Pakistani male, age ... let's say less than 35 but old enough to be well versed in the finer sex.

I am a fantastic lover, and I can cook. I have the full collection of Naruto Shippuden. I have action figures and one of my hobbies is to spend days going around my apartment being the Ghost of Gashir. It's really fun to escape into a different world.

I am a professional restuaranteur, with emphasis on fine dining. I am not overweight, in fact I would say I am slim.

I was an all star in high school basketball, and I can still keep it wet from downtown if you know what I mean.

Drop me a PM, let me know about you though, like what do you think of me?

I also love the Lakers, most of all, and even though I have considered becoming a Heat fat, I will probably just keep my head down until this mediocer craze blows over.

Thanks for reading..

NBA big men should take notes from David Lee. He isn't a very good athlete and its obvious watching him play defense. On offense though he obviously works at his game. His footwork, shot, and system knowledge shows that. The man gets paid and is sought after by multiple teams even if he he cannot move sideways.

I like Sullinger too .. not sure why they seem willing to part ways with him. A bit of a tweener but good hoops IQ I saw him play his senior year in HS good all around game not all has translated to NBA but he has a great skillset. Thje right coach (and I like Stevens) may be able to extract more out of him ...

It's a decent move for the Celtics.

Lee's offensive game is better than Sullinger's.

Sullinger has a low FG% for a power forward and he's not the most durable player.

It's a decent move for the Celtics.

Lee's offensive game is better than Sullinger's.

Sullinger has a low FG% for a power forward and he's not the most durable player.

It's because he is short not because he cant shoot. His shooting range has improved since HS and his one college year (IIRC). Lee is a grinder that has improved his game ... hoops comes easy for Sullinger he just lacks height.

lee could work with him and get him better

I can't figure out if Ainge wants us tanking or not this year. I also don't know why they seemingly want to trade Sullinger, when he's one of the most talented people on our roster. Just weird overall.

Celts weren't tanking. And maybe you're just to close to it; but I think you're over-rating Sullinger. He's a role player. He's very expendable. Maybe, it's cos you guys spent a first rounder at a time when young blood was desperately needed and you see him as a symbol of revitalization; but the C's can move on without him just fine. It's like getting rid of Brandon Bass.

It's more about the lak of talent on our roster than awesomeness from Sully. But he can definitely do some good things.
