Kind of had a feeling the whole thing with Aldridge played a part in cp3 decision
Would be hard for me to see Philly doing this, but I am pretty confident that Danny will make less than Covington will make. Size and age are big factors, as well as versatility. No idea how Holmes would fit in, though.

Remember when he signed with Cleveland, checked into the game and then a minute later got injured? Hilarious .
Could do worse for a fifth big.
This decision was made long ago. Him and Harden have been talking about playing together all season.
The Aldridge shade is just Houston / Paul putting crap out there to try and make us look less attractive this offseason. Probably even ties into a trade that's being discussed for someone like George. He wants to make Houston look more attractive than San Antonio.
Bogut gave the Cavs one more good minute than Joel Anthony gave the Spurs.
Yep. I said at the time the LMA news broke that CP3 was likely blindsided. I think CP3 and the Spurs had something between what I would characterize as a "tire-kicking" and a "serious" interest in each other. But the LMA brouhaha wiped out CP3's interest.
Aldridge should have just kept his mouth shut, seen if the Spurs could get CP3 who'd make him look a lot better than his is enhancing his value in the FA market next year. If the Spurs didn't get CP3 then he could ask for a trade.
Makes sense.
No. Lou Williams himself tweeted that the CP3 trade was in the works for almost 2 weeks people just found out when it happened.
Correct.
Our future "big" free agent signing
The amount of collusion in the nba is unreal. I get it's hard to prove and even more difficult to stop now that so many players are so friendly, but damn.
Used to really like LRMaM, but I didn't think he was good enough to decline the LLE.
Talking about a trade involving a player under contract is not collusion.The amount of collusion in the nba is unreal

Silver could stop it, or at least shut it way down... if he wanted to.
Pair him up with this guy and just count the rings.
Anyone high on James Johnson from the Heat? He has decent numbers and is a free agent if we need to unload LaMarcus and need a solid role player.
It's not Lou Williams' comment, after the fact. It's the fact that Harden was talking to CP3 about joining him in Houston.
"As part of its collectivebBargaining agreement, the league defines tampering as when a player or team directly or indirectly entices, induces or persuades any player under contract with another team in order to negotiate for their services. The NBA detailed its anti-tampering policy in a memo sent to all 30 teams in 2008."
I don't buy it! What is the difference from playing with Harden and a depleted roster vs. playing with Kawhi minus LaMarcus? This is all BS and these decisions were made a long time ago.
Unless LAC gave permission for Harden to backdoor recruit I have to disagree.
Silver knows he has a problem on his hand as the NBA is steering back to the days of just a few big market teams controlling the league. He tried to dismiss it this week by giving the old reference to the Spurs (who really won because of TD and some nice work in the drafts and some nice FA signings, but not with any super team) and by trying to state that Oakland is a small market. The fact that he ignored San Francisco shows how desperate he was in looking for a positive. He knows that small market teams are always at a huge disadvantage but he can't admit it.
