Terrance Jones and Beverly I guess. These guys really need to come into their own



Terrence Jones seemed to have a really good regular season, but an absolutely dreadful playoffs.

Bad match up with Aldridge.

His per was above 20 for the season I believe.

Salary cap will go up to around 80 mil(15+ mil than now) in 2016 so that explains some of the deals.



I think they are going to gradually raise it though for the sake of bad teams.

Ok not really sure I understand it either. They really don't have much offense on the team now. Howard is pretty good offensively, Harden is good, Ariza is a decent/good shooter, Jones is meh, Beverly is meh. Not much bench to speak of.

ESPN's Chris Broussard is reporting that the Timberwolves will not include Kevin Love in a two-way trade to the Cavaliers if Andrew Wiggins is not included in the deal.
The Cavs, on the other hand, say they have no intentions of moving Wiggins in order to get Love, although that could possibly change if push comes to shove. In any case, there's no doubt the Cavs want Love, and whether they can get a third team involved, or persuade the Wolves to deal without getting Wiggins, remains to be seen. Stay tuned.

Kevin McHale was shady in response to Omri Casspi & Pelicans trade. "I didn't even know. I love Omri, he's a great kid."

No
I live in Houston and follow them. Not a fan but an observer. I went to a couple of games. Casspi was a nice player in Sac but he didn't do anything for the rockets.

I have to think the rockets get active in the trade market. They can't just stand pat with ariza only.

Do you think he's better suited as a 3, which he played for the majority of his time leading up to his tenure in HOU, or as the 4 that he played for the rockets

Casspi? He isn't quick enough to guard 3s and he isn't strong enough to guard most 4s. He is tough and he won't back down from anyone.

He is a pro, good locker room guy, will do his job and give you 15 mins on your second team. For his salary slot that is all you want any way.

Perfect guy for a youngish locker room like NOLA. He is a pro's pro. Sometimes that alone makes a guy valuable.
