I know, I can't believe it sometimes but at least she's consistentMy favorite post of the night. Relentless and shameless - not even a segue. It just doesn't get any better than that.

I'm not a big fan of Hoopshype, and some of this article is pretty obvious stuff. But it still is a pretty good look at this year's offseason madness. http://hoopshype.com/2016/07/19/top-...e-agency-2016/
The first couple of paragraphs:
Just the opening minutes of free agency are a rather hilarious farce. By 12.30 on the night of the start of free agency, Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical had reported a four-year, $64 million agreement between the Lakers and Timofey Mozgov. By the NBA’s rules in the Collective Bargaining Agreement, free agents aren’t allowed to meet with teams before midnight on the start of free agency, and unless the Lakers miraculously negotiated a $64 million contract in the span of a short coffee break, it’s clear that everyone is ignoring the rules.
Joakim Noah‘s four-year, $72 million deal with the Knicks was public knowledge about two full days before July 1, which was also a wonderful and giant middle finger to the NBA’s tampering rules.
^^^ wow thanks for sharing that. What a farce. I wonder about Durant but water under the bridge this is not our year. Between a lot of young players getting their first taste of NBA action, to possible sop re and juniors playing more minutes, to Pau and Pop's experiments with the bench, to the grief and transition from Timmy, this is probably the real transition year that last season it felt like it was, but not quite. Still what a farce!
Two middling, non-playoff teams have sought to ship him out at the first possible opportunity. He's literally Rudy Gay: The Center. Can't defend, is a cancerous presence, and doesn't score efficiently enough to mitigate the first two. He's overpaid AND overrated, a rare combination.
I get it. If you give him the ball in the lane twelve times a game he'll get his 18. And he'll get his rebounds. But he's selfish, doesn't defend the rim, doesn't play team defense, won't be happy with any role but a starter, and doesn't do anything for your offense other than give you a threat on the block.
He's an albatross.
Well stated. Just look back to what they were saying about LMA defense and how it would hurt us. He turned out doing a lot better than what many expected. I agree with you, you don't pass up on a big like Monroe who's very talented in the post area.
Again, it wouldn't shock me for Monroe and MKE to agree to a buyout pretty soon and him ending up on GS.
Why would Bucks buyout and not facilitate trade with multiple teams?
Some useful info
The "it wouldn't shock me" part is telling. You are right.
Mr 14 million man
he bought the grand canyon?

Spectacular picture though.
Surprised Utah is holding into that 10m cobsidering their compete now approach.
It's smart to hold onto the cap space vs just give it away. It allows you to claim waived players, trade mid-season and possibly acquire first round picks (by taking someone off another teams books) despite the fact you are a playoff team.
Utah now with Bobo and Hill look like a compe ive team. They just don't have that superstar scorer, but otherwise they are a team with good balance.
who can they get for 10 million given the fact manu got 14 and jr smith wants 15?
Do not say such frightening things.
Good to see Delfino there, tbh... rooting for him...
Mr 14 million man
They also have Joe Johnson
Having BoBo and Georgie on the Jazz could be good to convince their teammates to sign with us in the future. Gobert
I've seen speculation that Utah is hoping to use that remaining 10 million to renegotiate & extend either Favors or Hill
Someone is going to throw Waiters big money. Utah is going to renegotiate and extend Favors with their cash.
Thanks for that. For some reason that made me laugh out loud.
Dude, you going to hit that Rifftrax show in August? I'm totally geeking out over it.

There's a theater a couple miles from my place simulcasting it.
