per Woj

Remember in the pre-Woj days when you actually had to watch the draft to see what trades went down?

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Heck yeh! Welcome back AAA. Should never have been sent packing for that dirty traitor.

Orlando now has opened up more than $35 million in capspace to go after James and Anthony together. What's really crazy is they'd also have about $17 million in capspace next year also even if they land both thanks to Harrington and Davis coming off the books. James, Anthony, Vucevic, Harris, max 2015 FA sounds pretty nasty.

Just noticed, it's "afflalo" not "affalo" wow...

I get notified of his tweets on my phone. His tweets are a good complimentary to the fun that is NBA Draft. I shouldn't say complimentary though because that breaks news before everyone else, so he's just as big as the Draft for the hardcore NBA fan.

West keeps getting tougher...I thought they ORL would get a better draft pick than that.

[Malik Hairston]

Afflalo is a little overrated, but he should fit well with the Nuggets..doesn't really change their outlook, though..

[Malice]

Love all these teams shuffling and creating chemistry issues...meanwhile....spurs sitting pretty. Good times.

Fournier and #56? Surely they could have got a lot more for him

[baseline bum]

So no one is impressed at the idea they could pull James and Anthony this year and then go get Kevin Love next season?

[Richie]

Seriously, the Nuggets should flip him to the Thunder for #21 and #29

[baseline bum]

If you're LeBron, certainly Anthony/Vucevic/Harris/Oladipo has to look at least as good as Wade/Bosh/Chalmers/Allen with Wade and Allen breaking down. Only downside is going from Philibeaner to Jacque Vaughn at coach. But then you get Kevin Love in 2015 also.

ing sucks for the Clippers, now we're left with three options: LeBron (least likely), Ariza (maybe), or another season of Barnes and Dudley laying bricks and getting torched (most likely)

Clippers would be real scary if they had even 1 competent SF, tbh..

Orlando couldn't keep Shaq or Dwight for a reason. No one wants to play in Orlando.

I would never throw money at Ariza. Looks great in contract years, but , do you remember how awful he was in Houston after signing his previous deal?

There is no LA Lakers to entice people out of Orlando now like with Shaq, and Howard is just a piece of . They also landed Prime Hill and Prime McGrady, and came pretty close to getting Prime Duncan. No state income tax too.

Ariza couldn't possibly be a bigger waste of space than Jared Dudley

Another thing I'm wondering is why Denver even wanted Afflalo back.... it's not like they're an Afflalo away from contention, they'll still be treadmilling with him like they would be with Fournier....

yah, true, lakers are not an ideal FA landing spot nowadays, but them Clippers are looking real tasty for premier free agents .

Yep, a fortnight ago you were trying to get Duncan's Diaw's, Manure's & Parker's visas vacated.

[Chinook]

So now they have ANOTHER wing on a big contract? They better make a trade soon to relieve that pressure, or they've gone supernova in their stupidity.
