Melo is being waived. Please let him go to the Lakers!
They are interested. Maybe Kahwi's "Uncle Dennis" could adopt Melo on the way there.

Tony Parker had made no secret last season—his 17th with the Spurs—that he hoped to play three more years in San Antonio to reach 20 before retiring. Which makes his leaving for Charlotte all the sadder. It’s certainly not because of money.
We're going to see how good San Antonio's front office is now that they're going to need to rebuild from scratch. Losing Kawhi will hurt them quite a bit, it's all about getting something valuable in return for him. I assume they let Parker go so they can free up money to make a big impact next offseason. Still surprised they didn't give him a 1 year deal or something.

Do you match that if you're the Bulls?xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media

That is a pretty big contract for a guy that hasn't really shown all that much and is coming off an ACL injury.

Are you kidding? I'd be packing his bags for him. I don't think he's worth half that, which is what Warren got and is a significantly better player even without 3pt range.
He’s better than Warren but there is some unknown with his knee injury.
In what way? Higher profile, yes. Better jumper, yes. But better player? I haven't seen it. What do you like about his game over TJ's?
Keeps him from signing with the Warriors also, which was rumored previously. That talk stopped when Cousins signed. Even though not many people care for Dwight, especially at this point in his career, if the Warriors added him that would start a whole new round of people complaining about how they sign every All-Star on the market. Dwight isn't an All-Star anymore but his impact would be inflated when people made the case against the Warriors free agent spending.

Ahh the kings, gotta love em. It's like they looked around and said "No one has done anything utterly crazy yet... we can fill the void!"xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media

I'm not sure if he it's a good signing... I'm not a big "intangibles" guy but Dwight has all the wrong ones. Ever since he left Orlando, each team he joins can't wait to be rid of him.Dwight Howard is headed to Washington. Not a bad signing for them, he's better than Gortat and cheaper as well. He signed for 2 years with the second season being a player option. He'll get $11 million a season, so $22 million total if he stays. Maybe the player there can keep him in check? If I was a Wizards fan I wouldn't be happy about adding a guy with questionable character to a team that already has Markieff. That could end badly for them. I think Markieff is on his final year though. Might as well give it a shot since they sent Gortat away already.

Actually, that talk stopped when (reportedly) the Warriors players voted against signing Howard. And when Cousins' name surfaced, they voted yes.
